Music label

in-akustik music label - music at its very best

When we founded our own music label in 1986, our aim was to offer music fans exceptional listening experiences featuring outstanding artists. And we remain true to this maxim. Here too, our primary goal is to turn music into pure pleasure. Providing authentic recordings, precisely as the artists on the stage or in the studio intended. You can expect musical gems from jazz, rock, pop, blues and classical music on our label. Our highlights include our reference sound editions, produced according to the RESO high-definition matering process - the special becomes the extraordinary. Our music and media warehouse currently contains more than 3,000 different titles. A total of over 15 million titles have been sold to date. The most successful artists and bands in terms of units sold include Erich Kunzel (600,000), Friedemann (400,000) and the Blues Company (200,000). Our releases have won 24 jazz awards. "Rory Gallagher at Rockpalast" was awarded the "Golden DVD" by the German Phonographic Industry Association.

A heart-felt issue

Our collaboration with the Caritas workshops in our neighboring town of Heitersheim is a matter particularly close to our hearts. We have been working closely with the Caritas organization since 2010. The team is heavily involved in the work steps necessary for assembling our AIR cables.

Tasks include insertion of the AIR cable clips and threading of the individual conductors.

Long-standing partners

The relationships with our partner companies such as Primare and Audiovector are based on mutual respect and trust. They share our values, our passion for music and our pure enjoyment of sound.

Our group of companies

in-akustik is part of the Braun group of companies, a medium-sized and family-run enterprise. In addition to the cable specialist Braunkabel, the model train manufacturer BRAWA and Eagle Cable also belong to the group.

Home, jobs & sustainability

in-akustik has grown strongly over the past decade, and we want to expand our team further. To help create more jobs in our region, we produce all our high-quality cables at company headquarters in Marktgräferland, an area in the southwest of Germany. This approach also helps us to avoid long transportation routes. We are also focusing on packaging, making recyclability a priority. We are working to reduce the amount of packaging we use and ensure everything can be reused. In addition, we avoid printed matter wherever possible.
