In January 2010, AKG was awarded the prestigious GRAMMY® Technical Award, making parent company Harman the only company to earn two such awards.  The Award recognizes AKG’s contributions to the art and science of music recording and performance through innovation and excellence in product design.  Only one other such award was presented during the 2010 GRAMMY festivities, awarded posthumously to Thomas Edison, inventor of the phonograph, early motion picture technologies, and the incandescent light. 

 AKG microphones and headphones have a long history on tour and in-studio with respected musicians including Frank Sinatra, Aerosmith, Peter Gabriel, Eric Clapton, Stevie Wonder, and the Rolling Stones -- as well as contemporary artists such as Jay Z, Missy Elliot, Eros Ramazzotti, Simply Red, and Kanye West. 

When music legend Quincy Jones assembled an all-star cast to re-make the pop hit "We are the World, AKG headphones came along.

Since its origins in 1947, AKG's role has expanded beyond the music studio and performance stage to newsrooms, Hollywood film sets, and even outer space.  For decades, AKG equipment has been used by broadcasters such as the BBC, has brought the world the exciting sounds of sporting events such as the Olympics and the FIFA World Cup, and has even taken flight aboard the International Space Station.
