The prestigious European Product Design Award honors “the best in the product design globally with the goal of advancing the appreciation of design worldwide”. Each submitted design was evaluated by the esteemed EPDA Jury on its own merit based on form, function, and innovation.
 
Renowned high-end audio brand, HIFIMAN, already recognized for outstanding sound quality, wanted to create a new planar headphone with style and comfort, commensurate with its sound. So years ago HIFIMAN joined forces with a  renowned design firm in Boston, Massachusetts. The result? HIFIMAN has rocked the audio world with HE1000 V2, “to embrace a commitment to beauty, comfort, and manufacturing quality as well as groundbreaking sound”.

The corrected link.
 
However, I don't get why you're posting this a second time, with the wrong, misleading title, since you only reached the second place in your category.

Quote: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Design_Award
 The ED-Awards is different than other design awards schemes in the way that the jury comprises not of peers (designers), but of design journalists and critics – people who see and judge work for a living.[2] Further more, since the ED-Awards organisation is made up of design magazines, it provides an opportunity for everyone submitting work, to have it featured in a number of these media. A lot of stories and articles are being created through the submitted work every year.[3]

 
once more gz to hifiman and their designer, hope you get your fantastically designed product featured in a lot of magazines
