When Ashdown's DNA Meets the Hellfest Spirit
Born from a collaboration between the Hellfest festival and the British manufacturer Ashdown, the HBS-40 carries forward the idea that made the brand's reputation: a sound that "holds" the mix and a strong visual identity. Inspired by the aesthetics of Ashdown amplifiers and adorned with finishes linked to the Hellfest universe, this speaker targets enthusiasts who want an object consistent with their musical culture without sacrificing performance for style.
This "signature" approach is reflected in details that evoke the brand's audio heritage while adopting a truly portable format. The result: an official Hellfest Bluetooth speaker that embraces its character and naturally fits into a modern listening setup, from the living room to the concert road.
A Speaker Designed to Move, from Backstage to Everyday Life
The HBS-40 is aimed at those who live music everywhere: before a gig, after a concert, during "off" rehearsals, traveling, picnicking, or partying. Its portable design and long-lasting battery make it a simple ally to pull out when the vibe rises, whether to restart a metal playlist, lay down a more chill rock base, or amplify an outdoor corner.
It also suits domestic use very well: office, bedroom, workshop, or guitar corner. The goal is clear: to rediscover energetic sound and immediate handling, with readable controls and a visual identity that doesn't look like a "generic" speaker.
