Around four decades ago, Westone Audio began manufacturing custom earpieces and perfecting designs. Westone Audio designed the first stage monitors fueled by our passion for music and performance. Throughout the 1980s, we developed balanced armature drivers in custom earpieces for musicians and “Walkman” style earbuds. This advancement created the first custom in-ear monitors in collaboration with artists including but not limited to, Rush and Def Leppard to point out a few.

Westone Audio has long been a pioneer, specifically of premium in-ear solutions. Moreover, Westone Audio has expressly proven leadership in the audio industry through a rich history of uniquely focused innovations and decades of knowledge shared with its former hearing healthcare business. As a result, the company has continued to strengthen its brand and core capabilities, now as a Lucid Audio Company.
