ELIPSON, THE HISTORY
Founded in 1938 by Joseph Léon, Elipson is the oldest French hi-fi brand. A true embodiment of the French sound, warm and articulate, Elipson has always stood out for its notable advancements in the field of acoustics and design.
In 2014, in response to the global resurgence of vinyl records, the Elipson team embarked on an ambitious project: the creation of a consumer-friendly turntable. In line with the brand's spirit, this new turntable had to be both innovative, stylish, and made in France. This gave birth to Elipson's first French-made hi-fi Bluetooth turntable: the Chroma turntable. A vintage and high-tech object that perfectly embodies the codes of French elegance. The brand's designers brought this project to life by creating a turntable with clean, rounded lines and subtle features characteristic of the Elipson style.
Passion and Craftsmanship
Each step of the Chroma turntable's production was carried out by expert and passionate hands.
It all began with the selection of the highest-quality bovine leather required for its creation. Then, in the workshops of Bleu de Chauffe, magic happens as the leather is cut, laid, and marked, breathing life into the project. Next, the skilled artisans of Elipson in Bourgogne take over for the assembly and the final touch of this precious product.
Quality and Performance
The leather used for this turntable is full-grain bovine leather, subjected to a vegetable tanning process, crafted from natural essences such as acacia, mimosa, and chestnut. It undergoes a tanning process to achieve optimal suppleness, revealing its natural and deeply pigmented grain.
The combination of birch wood and natural, aged leather provides effective wave absorption for smooth playback. The Chroma turntable incorporates the latest technological advances developed by Elipson
for its vinyl turntables. It is equipped with the new ASC digital motor, a phono preamplifier and a Bluetooth transmitter for easy connection to any connected hi-fi system.
