The Beginnings of elinsAudio
Born from Passion for Music
elinsAudio was founded in 2008 by two friends – Janusz Sendek and Ireneusz Chwastek – who shared a deep love for music. Janusz, an electronics engineer, had been building his own valve amplifiers and transistor amplifiers for years. Irek, equally drawn to the world of sound, quickly saw the potential in Janusz’s skills. Together they set out to create a Polish audio workshop with one clear mission: to build an amplifier that could power both traditional dynamic speakers and demanding magnetostatic designs – with a sound they truly believed in.
The early days were a time of experimentation and fine-tuning in search of the right sound. A breakthrough came through a collaboration with Bang & Olufsen. The company’s ICEpower modules (2 × 250 W and 2 × 1000 W) became the foundation for our designs. To shape the final sonic character, we developed our proprietary preamplifier, giving the amplifiers their distinctive voice.
The prototypes were shown at the Audio Video Show in Warsaw, where they received enthusiastic feedback from both listeners and professionals. Shortly after, the first limited series of amplifiers was released for the Polish and international markets.
Digital Amplifiers with Exceptional Sound
From the beginning, elinsAudio has focused on designing high current amplifiers. This makes them versatile – able to handle both easy-to-drive speakers and the most challenging high-end designs. Using Class D modules provides massive power reserves while keeping the sound dynamic, precise, and full of life.
For those less into the technical details: Class D is a modern solution that combines efficiency with great sound quality. It means your amplifier runs cooler, uses less energy, and still delivers music that feels powerful and emotional.

Awards That Marked Our Way
DOur debut power amplifier, Mille 2 × 1000 W, was reviewed by High Fidelity magazine and quickly won recognition: first the Red Fingerprint award, and then the title of Best Product 2014. The next model, the Concerto 2 × 250 W integrated amplifier, was designed as a more affordable option for music lovers. It too earned a Red Fingerprint and the Best Product 2015 award.
Later, the lineup expanded with the Cello MM/MC phono preamplifier, which allowed us to offer a complete stereo system in our signature design.

The creation of elinsAudio is inseparably linked with passion and the pursuit of perfect sound. From the very beginning, our goal has been to fill a noticeable gap in the hi-end market and to create equipment that fully satisfies the expectations of the most discerning listeners. All our efforts have focused on designing an amplifier capable of meeting the demands not only of dynamic speakers but also of the most challenging ones, such as electrostatic or planar-magnetic speakers.
After extensive refinement of sound quality and thorough compatibility testing with both planar-magnetic and dynamic speakers, we proudly present our range of products. Each is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, where innovative, unique design meets the unmistakable signature sound of elinsAudio.
