UK distributor and retailer Elite Audio UK and Norwegian high-end audio manufacturer Electrocompaniet have announced a new partnership, making all of the brand’s products exclusively available for sale in the whole UK.

Electrocompaniet have been around since 1973 with a  philosophy towards the perfect sound, that works not solely on numbers and technical measurements, rather relying on the listening experience to produce a ‘living, breathing’ natural sound. All their products are hand-made in their Norwegian base in Tau, near Stavanger.

Electrocompaniet has earned their own little pieces of rock history along the way, from sleeve credits on Michael Jackson albums to one of the most powerful high-end amplifiers in existence, the NEMO amplifier (named in Jules Verne reference to Bowers & Wilkins’ power-hungry Nautilus speakers which it was designed to drive) being installed at Abbey Road.

The very professional and skilled team at Elite Audio will add tremendous value to all clients looking to invest in our 100% Norwegian designed and manufactured products, with our signature sound and looks.
