About Lithium Headphones

Lithium Headphones is the result of a tinkerer and modder going too far, in all the best ways. Founded by Penny Ruby, an audiophile and lifelong (amateur) musician, Lithium was the result of years of modding and repairing headphones and vintage audio equipment.

With a CAD program, a 3D printer and a dream, Penny started to design. The first design was less than stellar:

However, it worked. It made music. It sounded better than free airline headphones, and that's not nothing.

Emboldened by this, Penny spent countless hours designing, printing, testing, cursing, redesigning, cursing some more, testing some more, until after being inspired by a DIY mod by a Head-Fi member named John Massaria, she came up with the Lithium Tuning System. Combined with a highly detailed Beryllium-coated driver, the Lithium Tuning system provided the soundstage and detail he was looking for.

And thus, Lithium Headphones was born.

We're still small, we're located in the greater Boston area, and Penny continues to tinker and improve on her designs. Check us out, have a listen, and enjoy the music.
