Aëdle is a Paris-based audio startup specializing in the manufacturing of high-end headphones. To launch the company they are offering limited quantities of their VK-1(Valkyrie) Headphones Classic Edition (400 units) & Carbon Edition (100 units) available for pre-order to be shipped in February.

Each of the VK-1 aluminum parts are sculpted one by one in a virgin aluminium ingot. Handsewn genuine lambskin leather for headband and cushions.
