Somebody has to
decide what is worth it.
Vinshine is not a catalogue. It is Alvin Chee deciding what is worth carrying, since 2008, and a small team in Singapore standing behind those decisions when something fails four thousand miles away.
Authorised, not grey
Stock comes direct from the people who build it, which is why the warranty is ours to honour.
Warranty handled by us
You deal with Vinshine, not with a factory that has never heard of you.
Delivered duty paid, EU and UK
The DDP fee is calculated from your country’s VAT rate and shown before you pay, so nothing is owed on delivery.
18 years of it
Trading since 2008. Long enough that the advice is worth more than the discount.
Write to me with your room, your speakers and your budget.
I answer within a working day, and the answer is sometimes to buy nothing at all. That is not modesty. It is the only reason a recommendation from here is worth reading.
A small team,
and all of it in Singapore.
Nobody here is a call centre. If you write, one of these four reads it.
Reads every email that comes in, and answers most of them. An honours graduate in computer engineering from the National University of Singapore, he spent years building his own cables, converters, headphone amplifiers and linear power supplies before selling anybody else's. That is why the questions we ask a manufacturer are the ones an engineer would ask.
Runs the day to day, and is the person Kinki Studio deals with. A quantity surveying graduate of Heriot-Watt University, he joined as the operation outgrew one person. He came to audio late and built his own system to learn it, which turns out to be the right way round for somebody answering a beginner's questions.
Keeps the books, the records and the reporting. A KAPLAN Singapore accounting diploma and fifteen years as a senior account executive before this. If your invoice, refund or duty figure is wrong, hers is the desk it lands on.
Moves the stock and gets the boxes out. She coordinates with the manufacturers so what the site says is in stock actually is, and she is the one chasing a repair or a return when something has to go back.
The short version.
- 2008A passion becomes a company
Alvin Chee founds Vinshine Audio in Singapore, a computer engineer’s lifelong love of audio electronics turned into a mission: deliver high-quality audiophile components at an exceptional balance of price and performance.
- The DIY yearsBuilt by hand, understood deeply
Long before the storefront, Alvin was DIYing cables, DACs, headphone amps and linear power supplies, the hands-on engineering foundation that still shapes how we evaluate every product we carry.
- Going globalTrusted by audiophiles worldwide
Vinshine earns recognition far beyond Singapore for its dedication to excellence and value, becoming a premier destination for listeners seeking top-tier gear and genuine, personal support.
- Vinshine XRefined to the Vinshine standard
We partner with trusted manufacturers, Kinki Studio, LHY Audio and more, on the Vinshine X collaboration collection: the Tai Hang power enhancer, the Dazzle integrated amplifier and the SW-10PRO network switch.
- TodayCurating the world’s finest, for you
A growing, hand-picked range shipped worldwide and backed by a small team that genuinely loves audio, still guided by the same belief Alvin started with in 2008.
