Our philosophy
Astell&Kern is a premium audio brand of portable and non-portable audio systems that play hi-res audio files without compromise. Astell means “star” in Greek, and Kern means “core” in German. Together, it refers to our aim to continuously reach for the core of music – the “original sound.”
Since our first product was launched in 2013, the brand philosophy—refusing to overlook even the smallest differences in sound quality—has led to a diverse array of audio products and outstanding and well renowned technology honed through continuous R&D, enriching music lovers’ lives.
