d&b audiotechnik

Two beliefs, one simple mission. Since those early garage days the world has seen some of the greatest technological and social changes. But for d&b two ideas have stood the test of time, supporting and uniting a generation of audio enthusiasts, for whom sound is about more than volume: it is something shared, wanted, and experienced. Just like any art.

First, is the belief that everyone should experience the same impeccable quality of sound, regardless of their position in the audience. This fair minded preoccupation embedded in the company its mission:

“d&b audiotechnik constantly endeavours to elevate the quality of sound systems to accurately transfer passions.”

known simply as Democracy for listeners.

Second, is the idea that loudspeakers and electronics should be built systematically, that is, to work in total unity. As a result, d&b loudspeakers can only be driven by d&b amplifiers; it’s an exclusive, but technically beneficial union, maximizing efficiency, consistency and ease of use. A fully integrated way of working that sets d&b out from the crowd.

What began with the integration of amplifier and loudspeaker now manifests as a company fundamental, from the way business networks operate to the way new technologies fit into existing practices. This holistic way of working, emphasizing the importance of the whole and the interdependence of its parts has a name: the d&b System reality.

d&b has over 500 Employees and a world of d&b distribution partners on hand to help customers access the d&b System reality.

Together they provide a thorough resource for product and system consultation, planning and repair services, onsite technical support, education and training, financial assistance and more.

All d&b audiotechnik products including Loudspeakers, Amplifiers and Rigging are made in Germany at their factory located in Backnang. The most perceived difference is the d&b’s unique workflow wherein the design of the venue is directly transferred to the amplifiers via an ethernet cable which aligns the system automatically.

d&b has further used this real time control feature to create and implement Array Processing (optimization of the speaker system), and Soundscape (a comprehensive Sound Designer Toolkit).

All d&b Products carry a warranty of 5 years including all components of Speaker and Amplifiers and service.
