About Baffle

We are a small team of engineers and listeners in Rotterdam. We design headphones and speakers that sound honest, last for years and can be repaired at home.

Why we exist

Most speakers are built to impress in a shop for thirty seconds. Ours are built for the ten thousand hours after that.

So we tune slowly, publish our measurements and keep every part in stock.

The people

Mila Verhoef

Co-founder, acoustics

If a speaker needs a demo track to sound good, it isn't finished.

What we believe

They decide what we make, how long it lasts and what happens when something wears out.

01

Tuned by ear

Every product is measured, then signed off by people listening in an ordinary living room.

02

Built to be opened

Screws, not glue. Cushions, cables and batteries swap out by hand in minutes.

03

Parts for ten years

We keep spare parts in stock for a decade after a product leaves the shop.

04

Fewer, better things

A short range, updated slowly. When we launch something, it replaces nothing that still works.

In numbers

We count what happens after the sale: parts sent, products still playing, years of support.

18400

Spare parts sent

Cushions, batteries and cables shipped to owners since 2020.
