The electrodynamic speaker as we know it was invented by Peter Laurids Jensen who was danish.
(He also invented the wireless telephone BTW).

Videbaek Højttalerfabrik = Hroswitha, called so after the ancient name for the danish town of Videbaek, was also a danish brand.
Shield was also danish. Possibly the export name used for Hroswitha.

I believe Jensen Speakers was also danish before moving to the UK.

In Sweden you had Sinus in Stockholm/Vaarby, which was also used by B&O, you will find them in the earlier versions of Beomaster 900K, both
in grey and black versions.

Pope was, I seem to remember, a swedish sub-brand of Philips. Later Dux.

In Sweden we also had Luxor which made their own elements.
They made some very unique deisgnes over the years.

One of their majestic designs were Luxor Orchestra, from early 80th a transmission line spekaer with very high sensitivity. Today a cult a refurbed by many swedes 

high quality elements, and still loved by many swedes

Luxor, due to traditional bad swedish sale technique never made it outside Sweden 

In Finland, we have at least ten speaker manufacturers currently, and plenty more that are gone - but we do have more land area as well 🙂

The internationally best known are probably Genelec, Amphion and Gradient (and possibly Unmonday soon).

Genelec, that sits in 95 % of all studios around the world.
Mika, isnt it so that Genelec have become so sucsessful that they employ almost an entire city in FInland

Have used them in my professions for almost 2 decades.
Love and hate issue for me. ;).

Love because they sound so ubelievable clear,
hate, because my sound mixes sound crap when listened in other speakers. It takes time to learn how use them as professional tools, due to my own opinion

Funny OT, the biggest genelec studio monitor was used at Stockholm municipal biggest acting theatre stage as a PA speaker for years.

Excluding elemnet manufactorers, we have plenty today in Sweden that supply our domestic market.

Rauna, Carlsson, Audio Pro, JWS, DLS,Marten,, XTZ,, QLN,,Proson, and many more, but they aim for Swedish market 

Danish loudspekars have reach far beoynd Denmarks borders, very far, in huge quantites and for many decades.

It's not easy to make a complete list since many brands were made in collaboration between Denmark and other countries.

The most vivid example is of course Dynaco A25.A mix of Danish manufacture,American money,Norwegian drivers,Swedish tecnical know-how and so on.Is that a Danish loudspeaker?

And what about Scan-Speak,Scan-Dyna,Scan Sound,Scan Sonic?

Not quite - there's a big brewery in Iisalmi as well 😂

What is interesting about them is that they've managed to make a successful product range from the biggest studio monitors to affordable, but still well performing small active speakers. The 6010A is very popular among nerds over here 😁 What I hate is the design. That is something that B&O should do - a no-compromises tabletop speaker to replace the BL4.

Interesting how many raw driver manufacturers the list includes. I've used most of them in designs over the years, from Peerless, thru Dynaudio, Vifa, and SEAS. Vifa and SEAS have long been favorites of mine, reasonable price, rock solid quality and specs. Dynaudio...well, I love the D28AF tweeter, but for their woofers the specs were all over the place. I am not sure how things are nowadays, I haven't designed or built anything in a longish time, but back in the day a lot of the drivers that showed up available thru the usual outlets for home brew speaker builders were items that had failed inspection testing for speaker system manufacturers as being too far out of spec to use in the designs.

Speaking of Danish and Scandinavian stuff in general, I have a book I recently bought, Scandinavian Design, that lists a couple of pages each for a large number of designers, it's a very thick book. B&O is in there obviously, but in general it's amazing to me how much good design has come out of the Scandinavian countries, and how much of it I not only like but seem to own.

More to the list.

Avance,

Dantax,.
