Elysia Xpressor 500 Vinyl Allstars Limited Edition

In celebration of their 10th anniversary, elysia has created the Elysia Xpressor 500 Vinyl Allstars Limited Edition, with a stunning front panel hand-made from real records! Each individual module features a unique groove pattern based on the individual record from which it was crafted. The vinyl front panels are supported by a sepia-colored layer of acrylic glass, gently emphasizing the vintage vibe of this ultimate analog appearance.

This vinyl/acrylic panel is attached to an additional steel base plate, ensuring the stability of the front panel. The steel base is finished with a black powder coating to prevent oxidation and to blend into the color of the record.

Another carefully matched detail – anodized matte black aluminum knobs, manufactured exclusively for this limited edition. Cream-colored silkscreen graphics add the perfect final touch to the classic vibe of the Vinyl Allstars.

All these custom materials combine beautifully to create a very individual appearance rich in audio history – an outstanding black jewel in any 500 series rack for sure, completed by a set of included lens head screws matching the coherent look of this special edition.

The Vinyl Allstars are limited to 50 pieces per module worldwide - when they're gone, they're gone!
