Grimm Audio

Grimm Audio is a Dutch engineering company, founded in 2004 near Eindhoven by a group of respected audio engineers whose reputations were first made in the professional world. For years their analogue-to-digital converters, clocks and mastering tools have been trusted inside recording and mastering studios, where there is simply nowhere to hide a flaw. That same uncompromising, measurement-led philosophy now underpins a small, carefully considered range of products designed for the home. The turning point for music lovers came with the LS1 active loudspeaker, which brought studio-grade thinking into the living room, followed by the widely acclaimed MU1 music player, a Roon-based source many regard as a reference. The company has since extended its range into dedicated amplification. At Hidden Home Technology we are drawn to Grimm Audio precisely because the engineering comes first and the marketing second. Every product is built to reveal a recording exactly as it was made, nothing added and nothing taken away. We would be glad to demonstrate the range during a private audition at our Bath showroom.
