We create audio systems that transcend music listening experience

To transcend means to go beyond the limit, and that's precisely what we do at Consonus.

The typical shortcomings and challenges of a speaker system are well known. Generations of designers have tirelessly worked on solutions for nearly a century since Rice and Kellog invented loudspeaker in 1925. But no matter how complicated and expensive these solutions are, most of them fail to reach a breakthrough, offering just incremental improvements instead. This can leave a listener with a somewhat better sound, or even a great sound, but still longing for more, especially over time.

Do you feel as if something is missing, something is not good enough with your audio system? You're not alone!

OUR STORY

The Tide is coming in!

We are formally trained audio engineers, but what’s equally important, we are enthusiasts with unwavering passion for sound. With years of experience, we’ve expanded and perfected our know-how, developing products for a diverse range of consumer and professional brands. Our designs have found their way into some of the most unique products and challenging applications. From planar magnetic headphones and recording studio amplifiers and monitors for world class brands, to audio systems for premium immersive formats for home and commercial cinema theaters, to sound reinforcement systems for live performances. We understand the intricacies of audio engineering and sound reproduction  and we know precisely what it takes to deliver breathtaking sound.

The concept of Tide loudspeakers had been evolving over the years. Certain principles and “secrets” about sound reproduction became clear and relevant. Some of them, the “jewels” are really invaluable, while others are often used by brands for marketing purposes only and do not really make sound better, having very questionable value for customers.

There are significant limitations for a system designer working within a certain brand ecosystem.

And yet, we have always dreamt about creating a system that has minimal technical limitations and carries undeniable aesthetic appeal. Our singular ambition has been to captivate music aficionados, rewarding them with a listening experience that transforms and transcends.

Meet the Tide. It is not a typical box speaker. Tide is the embodiment of technical art, a masterpiece brought to life by Consonus. Every line, shape, material and finish is a harmonious synergy.  Tide is a work of art and a piece of audio gear that has to be seen and experienced.

Join us on this voyage, to redefine the boundaries of what’s possible in audio.

Meet the founders

It took us three years to develop and build the first Tide prototype. At the end of this journey we asked ourselves - did we create something exceptional, a product worth the effort to start the company? That's how Consonus was born.
