iKKO Audio

iKKO, officially known as iKKO Technology Co., Limited, is a high-tech audio brand founded in 2018 in Shenzhen, China. The company quickly gained recognition in the audiophile community for its high-performance in-ear monitors (IEMs), such as the OH1 and OH10 Obsidian series, which utilized advanced materials like carbon nanotubes and high-density copper.

Starting as a specialist in Hi-Fi audio, the brand has significantly expanded its portfolio into the intersection of acoustics and artificial intelligence. In 2024, iKKO introduced groundbreaking products like the ActiveBuds, which gained global attention for being the first wireless earbuds featuring a smart touchscreen case with an integrated AI operating system capable of real-time translation and standalone app usage. By 2025, the brand further diversified with the launch of the MindOne, a compact AI-focused smartphone. The company operates independently as a private tech firm headquartered in Shenzhen, maintaining its own research, development, and manufacturing facilities to control the precision of its acoustic engineering.
