[Durham, NC – May 13, 2025]
German audio company KSD Studio Monitors, known for their hand-crafted loudspeakers and innovative DSP technology, has partnered with audio dealer Sound Pure to expand their North American retail network. The collaboration brings KSD’s full product line to Sound Pure, including the precision-engineered A200mk2 3-way active monitors and C55 Reference monitors released earlier this year.

About KSD Studio Monitors
KSD Studio Monitors are the premier designers of German-made, handcrafted loudspeaker systems. Recognizing a need for a time-aligned studio monitor free of latency, KSD founder Johannes Siegler, together with his mentor and partner Dieter Klein, began researching a solution to such a challenge over twenty-five years ago. His tenacity and steadfast commitment to exploring DSP technology in a studio setting led to the invention and patenting of KSD’s groundbreaking FIRTEC technology in 1994. Designed to the exacting standards of Germany’s Tonmeister specifications, FIRTEC employs phase-linear filters on custom FPGAs for low-latency, accurate, and tonally neutral delivery across the entire frequency range.
In 1996, Siegler and his colleagues brought the first digitally equalized studio monitors to market, with the development and production of their landmark ADM2. The team at KSD Studio Monitors continues to set the standard for unparalleled precision, tonal neutrality, and imperceptible latency in their range of product offerings, all of which are designed in-house and handmade in Saarbrücken, Germany.
