Kali Audio is a studio monitor and loudspeaker manufacturer founded in January 2018 by five former JBL veterans, including Nate Baglyos and Charles Sprinkle. Headquartered in the Burbank/Glendale area of Southern California, the company was born from the founders' desire to prioritize engineering-driven research and development with fewer compromises than they experienced at larger corporations. All products are designed and engineered in California, and each product line is named after a California town or city.

Kali Audio's lineup spans studio monitors, subwoofers, headphones, and accessories. Their debut Lone Pine series (LP-6 and LP-8) established the brand as a strong value proposition in the powered monitor market, while the three-way Independence series (IN-5 and IN-8) pushed into higher-end territory — the IN-5 was voted Best Studio Monitor of 2021 by Sound on Sound magazine readers. The flagship Santa Monica series (SM-5 and SM-8) delivers up to 300 watts of power per speaker. The range also includes ultra-nearfield monitors (LP-UNF and IN-UNF) designed for desktop use, the WS-6.2 and WS-12 subwoofers, the HP-1 multi-reference headphone with three tuning modes, and the Project Mountain View Bluetooth input device.

Kali Audio has 21 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Active & Passive Monitors, Studio Subwoofers, and Audio Interfaces. Their gear is featured by 9 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Pop, and Metal. Notable users include Dave Clauss, Jacob Collier, and Steve Terryberry. Kali Audio's catalog spans the full price spectrum — from entry-level options to high-end flagships.
