About Authentic High End

Authentic High End is Belgium’s leading high-end audio store, located in the heart of Brussels. Founded by Steve and shaped together with Mary-Ann and Jules, Authentic High End was created from a clear conviction: truly great sound is not a technical luxury for specialists only, but an essential part of a refined way of living.

Over the years, Authentic High End has become a trusted destination for discerning clients who value music, craftsmanship and long-term quality. Our showroom is a place where sound, design and hospitality meet—where listening is never rushed and every system is built around emotion rather than specifications.

Curated High-End Audio, Without Compromise

Authentic High End is known for its carefully curated portfolio of world-class audio brands, selected for their musical integrity, engineering excellence and longevity. Our selection includes Linn, Luxman, Boenicke Audio, Lejonklou, ATC, Graham Audio, Kudos Audio, Rega, Lyngdorf Audio and TIDAL.

Because we offer the complete ranges of Linn and Luxman, Authentic High End is often referred to as Linn Belgium or Luxman Belgium. This is not a marketing claim, but a reflection of deep expertise, long-term partnerships and absolute trust in these brands.

Two Audiences, One Philosophy

Authentic High End serves two distinct yet connected audiences.

For luxury lifestyle clients, we introduce high-end audio as a natural extension of interior design, art, gastronomy and culture. We demonstrate that exceptional sound enhances everyday life—and that no technical background, complex setups or cable chaos are required. Clients are fully guided and supported, from first discovery to installation and long-term enjoyment.

For dedicated music lovers, Authentic High End offers deep expertise and system building focused on musical truth. Every recommendation is based on careful listening, experience and a profound respect for the artist’s intent.

Expertise, Trust and Accessibility

One of our core beliefs is that high-end audio should be understandable and approachable. We actively challenge the misconception that true high-end sound is inaccessible or excessively complex. Through education, listening sessions and honest advice, we help clients make confident choices—at a level that fits their expectations and budget, without compromising authenticity.

Our role is not to sell equipment, but to build lasting listening experiences.

A Place for Community and Experience

Authentic High End is equally known for its highly sought-after events. From exclusive product launches and curated listening sessions on remarkable vinyl pressings to refined whisky tastings, these moments bring together clients, music lovers and curious newcomers. Hospitality, generosity and quality define every event—creating a community around shared passion and discovery.

Our Vision

Authentic High End aims to be the Belgian reference for Linn and Luxman and to stand as an evangelist for authentic high-end audio. We believe in sustainability through longevity, craftsmanship over trends, and systems that are built to be enjoyed for decades.

High-end audio, at its best, is not about technology—it is about emotion, connection and the art of living well.
