About ESB Audio

The history of ESB Audio dates back to 1972 when this Italian brand was officially founded. ESB Audio is among the most renowned loudspeaker manufacturers of the second half of the 20th century and over its rich history introduced many innovative technologies and high‑end home audio products that achieved huge global success. Based on their gained experience, ESB engineers began researching optimization of sound for automotive environments in 1984 and two years later started producing their first car speakers. Due to great success, ESB increasingly focused on the automotive industry and its demanding challenges. Car Audio became a phenomenon of the time and in 2005 a school dedicated exclusively to vehicle audio was established in Aprilia, where ESB is based. At that time the company also made the definitive decision to leave the home audio world and focus solely on vehicle sound. Today ESB, together with the American manufacturer of audiophile amplifiers and DSP processors Zapco, is part of the Italian Apex Group. The range includes several speaker series led by the super high‑end three‑way Diecimila system, which likely represents the finest and most expensive car speakers on today’s market. ESB’s main mission remains: to manufacture speakers of the highest quality focused on faithful sound that allows the user to experience reproduction as the artist intended—exactly according to the company slogan "Just like live".
