For a century, ELAC has pursued one idea with unwavering focus: to create the best possible sound. Founded on tradition, driven by innovation, and always looking ahead, ELAC pioneered sonar technology and the study of sound's behavior in air and water from the very beginning. This scientific foundation still defines who they are today. ELAC's passion for sound soon found expression in music. ELAC became synonymous with precision engineering and musical excellence. ELAC rose to become one of the world's most respected loudspeaker manufacturers. This is also the motto of the 100th Anniversary Album: specially compiled recordings from various musical genres and countries, created by ELAC for this occasion. To best transmit this musical experience, a UHQCD (Ultimate High Quality CD) is used as sound carrier. This disc manufacturing process masks the sound quality of UHQCD closer to the master quality.
