History

The company began when Mukherjee, an engineering student from IIT Roorkee, began designing amplifiers and speakers. [3] . The company roped in eminent engineer Subir Pramanik on board as an advisor who trained engineers such as Abhijit Ghose [4] . Loudspeakers and turntables went on the market in the mid 1970s, and component audio systems in the mid 1980s. Around the same time, manufacturing and research was moved to Special Economic Zone, Mumbai. Engineered solutions were developed for professional audio mainly for exports. The company produced OEM products for the high‑end home audio, professional studio and public address markets. [5] . These solutions are also available in India along with a range of high performance residential audio systems for music and surround sound. Sonodyne launched its Malhar bluetooth speaker in 2022.
