Elipson Celebrates their 80th Anniversary with Special Edition products
French AV Company Elipson is proud to celebrate their 80th birthday by launching special Anniversary editions of their best selling audio products.
Elipson started creating their unique shape of sound with spherical speakers from a French workshop in Vitry, central France back in 1938. Over the years Elipson speakers have been installed in some of the most beautiful venues from the Chateau de Chambord, the 1968 Winter Olympics stadiums, French radio and TV stations to the more recent prestigious Hotel de Crillon and New Morning, Temple of jazz and soul in Paris.
80 years on and several innovations later, the Elipson brand shares its passion for sound perfection and design with the new generation of consumer and commercial audiophiles around the globe. Elipson’s latest products combine the very best of high fidelity performance with the latest electronic audio technologies.
To mark this 80th birthday occasion, the brand has selected three of its finest and best selling products. The iconic, spherical Planet L and more traditional Prestige Facet 8B speakers feature enhanced crossovers using the highest grade quality components available, in addition to an attractive satin black finish with gold trim. The Alpha 100 RIAA BT turntable also enjoys the same black and gold treatment with an enhanced integral phono stage.
