Sonodyne, the brainchild of Ashoke Mukherjee, India's decorated audio-technocrat was started in the early ‘70s with the vision of bringing high fidelity to India. In the early ‘90s, having established itself as a leading player in the home audio markets in India Sonodyne expanded its vision to take Indian sound innovation global.
Sonodyne has been designing and manufacturing, since the late ‘80s-from its EOU units in Mumbai and Kolkata, niche products as OEM in pro audio and power electronics. In the early 2000s with the Indian economy starting to grow exponentially, opportunities arose in pro audio, install, cinema, and studio. Quickly, the company aligned its design, manufacturing and distribution to meet the professional sound needs of new India. However, there was fierce competition since the leading global brands also targeted this same market. By introducing an optimum combination of research, design, performance, and value into products, Sonodyne has emerged as a strong force in the Indian professional audio industry.
With the growth in markets, distribution, improvements in product quality and manufacturing locations, the next step was to look overseas. The initial offering is a range of active near field studio monitors that has become the standard in Indian broadcast and production studios. By utilizing a combination of solid aluminum die cast enclosures, high quality transducers and customized high power amplification, Sonodyne Reference Series deliver exceptional performance at great value. With over 45 years of experience, Sonodyne is India's premier audio design and manufacturing house. With products in residential and professional applications Sonodyne exports to over 30 nations.
During the past decade, we have focused on the design and development of active speakers. In 2005, with the objective to provide compact, highly detailed active speakers, we introduced the SM studio reference speakers (studio monitors). Within a short period, the SM range received global acclaim among end users, trade and press. Today, our studio monitors are installed in critical applications in professional and home studios across the world.
