We believe music is a force which can connect us, but its value is often overlooked in today's distracted world.

Our Cafe Sound speakers combine vintage design and aesthetics with modern and sometimes vintage components. We believe they encourage deep listening, which can inspire people to engage with music in new and meaningful ways, and ultimately, help build a more vibrant and connected community of music lovers.

We are currently building systems one at a time and making them available as they are completed.

From our Founder, Chris Baus

My roots in vintage audio go back over 30 years to a time when some now vintage equipment was still considered new. My enjoyment for audio has been fundamentally based in a love for music. Not being a musician myself, I've always viewed musicians as magicians.

Our sound systems are combination of new audio technology and the best of vintage. Some components we source directly from the vendors, some we scrounge off the internet, and travel long distances to acquire. I'm not afraid to call what we do "curation" more than engineering – especially after years of working in tech engineering.
