DPA Microphones Acquires Majority Stake in Austrian Audio, Expanding High-End Audio Portfolio
DPA Microphones has acquired a majority stake in Vienna-based Austrian Audio. Founded in 2017 by former AKG Vienna employees, Austrian Audio builds on that legacy to produce high-quality audio products known for engineering excellence.
With over 350 years of combined engineering experience, Austrian Audio’s team is dedicated to its mission to “Make Passion Heard.” The company develops and manufactures innovative microphones, headphones, and audio tools, all while maintaining a strong connection to its acoustical heritage.
DPA Microphones was drawn to Austrian Audio’s rapidly growing brand, skilled team of engineers, and complementary product portfolio. While DPA specializes in Miniature Microphone categories, Austrian Audio focuses on Large Diaphragm Microphones. Both companies cater to the high-end audio market, with DPA positioned at the premium tier and Austrian Audio offering a broader range of products.
