The rounded corners of the housing not only give the ELAC FS 408.2 an elegant appearance, but also eliminate sound distortion caused by acoustic wave diffraction. This speaker has a 2.5-band configuration. It has two low-frequency drivers with a diameter of 180 mm, the diffusers of which are manufactured using the patented AS-XR technology. They have a multilayer structure made of aluminum and paper, due to which their operating range has been expanded – this has had a positive effect on the sound quality of the midrange, as well as provided a smoother response in the transition band between the bass and treble bands.

    ELAC Vela 2.0 VFS409.2

    The ELAC FS 409.2 floorstanding loudspeaker is equipped with a JET VI ribbon tweeter. The ultralight tape membrane provides an instant response to the received signal, resulting in high sound accuracy. Another advantage of such a Twitter is a very wide frequency range with an upper limit of 50 kHz.

    The speaker body is tilted back at a slight angle. This ensures the most consistent sound of the drivers and aligns the stereo picture. The geometry of the case in cross-section is close to a trapezoid, the width of the slightly convex front panel exceeds the width of the rear wall. This solution makes it possible to effectively deal with internal resonances.

  • Solano 2.0 FS287.2

    Floorstanding loudspeakers

    ELAC Solano 2.0 FS287.2

    Compact 2.5-way floorstanding speakers. Low-frequency drivers with a diameter of 150 mm with combined AS diffusers mounted on a cast basket. JET 6 branded AMT ribbon tweeter of the new generation. The crossover is made of selected components.

  • Concentro 2.0 M.2

    ELAC Concentro 2.0 M.2

    The model is a three-band design in which the main part of the frequency range is reproduced by a coaxial concentric driver consisting of a JET 5 ribbon radiator and a Ring Radiator midrange driver with an aluminum diffuser of a complex Crystal Membrane profile.

  • Concentro 2.0 S509.2
