Beyerdynamic celebrates its centenary in 2024 as one of the leading brands of quality headphones and microphones. Since 1924, Beyerdynamic has maintained its reputation as a trusted audio brand, thanks to its impeccable sound quality and the arrival of the DT 48, the first dynamic headphones ever made. As the company enters its centennial, it is celebrating one hundred years of milestones with a booth at NAMM highlighting its history.
Eugen Beyer: A True Pioneer.Originally hailing from Russia, beyerdynamic’s founder, Eugen Beyer started out with a fascination for cinema loudspeakers and field acoustics. In 1924, he began manufacturing cinema speakers and founded “Elektrotechnische Fabrik Eugen Beyer,” laying the foundation for what would become one of the world’s oldest manufacturers of headphones and microphones – beyerdynamic.
Introduced in 1937, the DT 48 was the first dynamic headphones ever created (“DT” stands for dynamic telephone). The DT 48 headphones featured better sound quality and could reach higher levels than the first modern headphones invented by Nathaniel in 1910. .
Then, with the M 19 in 1939, the first studio-quality dynamic microphone, Beyerdynamic continued its trajectory to make audio history. Many of the products he introduced back then are still manufactured today, a testament to Beyerdynamic’s unwavering commitment to quality and tradition.
Built for the world. Today, Beyerdynamic still manufactures all its professional headphones and microphones in Germany and remains a 100% family-owned company.
“Like any company, we’ve changed a lot over the past 100 years,” said CEO of beyerdynamic, Andreas Rapp. “But what has remained unchanged throughout our history is our commitment to constant innovation and developing products that create an unrivaled sound experience. We’re looking forward to celebrating our centennial as a brand and can only imagine what we’ll accomplish in the next 100 years to come.”
Celebrating at NAMM. To kick off its centennial celebration, Beyerdynamic will highlight its history at NAMM with an immersive booth highlighting all of its key professional headsets and microphones, as well as its performances.
