About us
From our hometown Stockholm, we create purposeful audio products to simplify choices for sound-savvy personalities around the world. Uniting Swedish design thinking with carefully selected forward-looking functions is what we’re all about. It’s even in our name: Design + function = Defunc. The result? Earbuds and speakers with the right sound for the right time. So, if you know what you want to do, we’ve got what you need to enhance your experience. This is why we’re here, since 2015 and beyond.

Our story
Experimenting to meet the moment and the future audio wants and needs is something that makes us tick. Take our early speakers, DUO, which gave stereo sound via two connectable Bluetooth units when nothing else on the market could. Or our first TRUE model, which combined a long-lasting power bank and earbuds in one device, perfectly timed with the surge of the mobile lifestyle. We also developed MOBILE GAMING earbuds, created in collaboration with gamers and innovative engineers from KTH Royal Institute of Technology. Additionally, our MultiTip™️ stands out as a hybrid earbud tip. It was designed based on consumer insights and integrates the most-liked features for music, communication, and sports functions. Just to name a few.
Crafting a truly wireless world
We started with earbuds and now we’re returning to our roots by discovering novel ways of developing true wireless earbuds. Our TRUE collection today consists of earbuds tailored for enhancing for instance sports, entertainment, gaming, meeting and of course music experiences. Without compromising on other baseline features.
Simplifying sound choices
In 2015, entrepreneur Johan Wahlbäck, with a lifelong devotion to innovative functional design, gave himself a challenge: make it easier for people to find the right earphones in a maze-like earphone market. Defunc was born, premiering four original earbud models with clear names and purposes, available in three price categories to suit every wallet: MUSIC, TALK, SPORT and HYBRID.
