Enleum is a prestigious Korean high-end audio equipment company originally established in 2009 as Bakoon International by founder Soo In Chae, who majored in industrial engineering and previously worked in nanotechnology before pursuing his passion for music and audio equipment. The company was founded through a collaboration between Korean enthusiast Soo-In Chae and Japanese inventor Akira Nagai, who developed the revolutionary current-mode Satri circuit technology that became the backbone of their amplifier designs. After over a decade of international success and prestigious recognition including design awards, Soo In Chae rebranded the company as Enleum in 2021, terminating the Bakoon partnership to establish his independent design team and vision. The name 'Enleum' merges 'enlightenment' with the Korean word 'Eum' meaning 'sound,' reflecting their philosophy of creating enlightened sound experiences. Based in Korea with R&D operations spanning Japan and manufacturing facilities in Korea, while maintaining U.S. operations through San Jose, California, Enleum develops world-class high-end audio products including the award-winning AMP-23R integrated amplifier (Red Dot Award: Product Design 2021 and iF Design Gold Award 2022) and HPA-23RM headphone amplifier. The company specializes in compact, simple, and high-performance audio equipment with a minimalistic design philosophy focused on perfection and clean, sharp simplicity, serving discerning audiophiles worldwide with products ranging from compact portable devices to no-compromise home systems while maintaining deep expertise in product design, mechanical and electrical engineering, and precision manufacturing.
