Avedis Audio Electronics is a boutique professional audio manufacturer based in Tujunga, California, founded by self-taught analog circuit designer Avedis Kifedjian. The company grew out of Kifedjian's work repairing and modifying high-end British and American outboard studio gear, including time spent maintaining Neve consoles at Hollywood's Grandmaster Recorders and working for Brent Averill. The operation is family-run, with circuit boards sourced from Northern California and hand-soldered in-house.

Avedis Audio specializes in 500 Series format modules and discrete analog designs. Their product line includes the MA5 microphone preamplifier (a Class A design inspired by early 1970s British consoles), the MD7 op-amp mic preamp with TransDrive transformer-enhancement circuitry, the E27 three-band equalizer (notable as one of the first 500 Series EQs with transformer-balanced input and output), the E12G graphic equalizer, and the KeyPre, a purpose-built preamp for electronic instruments and synthesizers. At the heart of many of their products is the proprietary 1122 discrete op-amp, Kifedjian's original design known for its depth and resolution.

The company maintains a relationship with Sound City Studios, where Kifedjian services a vintage 1973 Neve console in partnership with producers Blake Mills and Tony Berg. Avedis Audio Electronics is a member of the Audio Engineering Society, the Hollywood Sapphire Group, and NAMM.
