Stenheim

Proud Member of The Nexus Brand Family

Stenheim describes itself as a “Young Brand” with “Timeless Expertise”. Although founded a relatively few, short years ago in 2010, Stenheim is steeped in the time-tested Swiss values of precision and outstanding quality. Inspired by its country’s long history of micromechanic and watch-making expertise, Stenheim quickly became a leader among Swiss audio brands.

Its five founders, Jean-Loup Afresne, Antoine Petroff, Maxime Perrin, Sébastien Benz and David Jilli are all engineers, passionate about sound and music. Prior to launching Stenheim, they worked together at one of the biggest names in audio equipment. After two years of intense research and development, Stenheim launched its first product range, the Alumine. These compact, all-aluminum speakers were created to be the reference model, to evolve over time to include a full-range system with subwoofer.

“The Stenheim Alumine Five SE is not just a great speaker; it is one of high-end audio’s greatest speakers. Its ability to generate truly deep, linear, powerful bass, unusually rich and lifelike tone color, near-visible three-dimensional images, and astounding detail and dynamics from such a modest enclosure is not just a surprise; it is on for the ages.”

Some manufacturers focus on the sensory, others on technology. Stenheim merges the two—the culmination of its understanding of the relationship between real physical constraints and their impact on the subjective quality of listening. By design, Stenheim ignores the trendy, building its products to last—opting for simple elegance and neutral, rich and clear tones—highlighting the beauty of music, nothing else.
