Elac's history dates back to 1926, when Electroacustic GmbH was founded in the maritime city of Kiel, to develop sonar systems. At the end of World War Ⅱ, the factory switched to consumer goods, and the first Elac record player appeared in 1948. The following year, Elac was allowed to re-enter the field of nautical products, and these continued alongside the audio division until 1978. The nautical business was later acquired by Honeywell, while new investors took over the hi-fi side. In 1984, Elac started building speakers, and soon introduced its innovative 4PI omnidirectional ribbon tweeter, developed jointly by Elac and the Dutch van den Hul/Bakker group. Elac originated its first JET tweeter in 1993 - the basic JET design that had been developed by ARES from the concept of the inventor Dr Heil. Elac outsources its budget speaker line to the Far East, all its other models are entirely built in Germany.
