About us

At the close of the 19th century, when pianos reigned as the sole source of home entertainment, two visionary brothers sought to introduce something fresh and innovative to the world of audio. Nestled in the heart of Montreal, they realized their dream by founding the first store dedicated to home entertainment systems, aptly named 'Layton Bros.'

Since 1887, the Layton name has been synonymous with the joy of experiencing quality audio in the comfort of home. Their journey continued into the 1950s, as audio systems began to eclipse the piano in popularity, leading to the evolution of their store into what is now known as Layton Audio.

By this time, Layton Audio had established an impressive reputation as the premier destination for high-quality audio equipment, becoming the go-to shop for discerning customers.

Today, Layton Audio proudly upholds the tradition of helping customers achieve their dreams of exceptional electronic entertainment.
