The model uses a new tweeter with a waveguide. The silk dome tweeter is equipped with a wide suspension, and the upper limit of its operating range is raised to 35 kHz to ensure a more realistic RF reproduction.
The ELAC Debut 5.2 is relatively small in size, but thanks to its sophisticated design, it has a powerful and rich sound with fairly deep bass. This acoustics can be used when building a stereo system in a small room, or in the back channels of a high-end home theater.
The DF53-BK is a 3-way floorstanding model from the ELAC Debut 3.0 series. It is equipped with three 5.25-inch woofers.
Special tweeters are installed here — individual 1-inch aluminum tweeters are strictly calibrated to improve the distinct acoustic properties of the speakers of which they are a part.
The ELAC UniFi Reference UF52 floorstanding loudspeakers are part of the company's updated model series, which is a further development of the Uni-Fi and Uni-Fi 2.0 lines. These speakers have received a completely updated design that fully meets the requirements of today's high-end models.
The ELAC Debut Reference DFR 52 has a three-band configuration and is equipped with two low-frequency drivers. They have a diameter of 5.25 inches, which made it possible to keep the case narrow enough for convenient placement of the speaker in a residential interior.
The speakers are equipped with new drivers and have a three-way configuration. The emitters for medium and high frequencies in the ELAC Uni-Fi Reference UFR52 are combined into a single design — a coaxial driver. It consists of a 1-inch tweeter with a soft dome covered with a protective mesh, which is placed in the center of a 4-inch midrange speaker. The diffuser of the latter is made of aluminum and has a low weight and high rigidity.
The main part of the frequency spectrum of this model — above 300 Hz — is processed by XStat CLS electrostatic converters with a width of 13 inches (about 325 mm). They implement a number of well-known Martin Logan technologies. The CLS panels (Curvilinear Line Source) used in the Martin Logan Expression SL 13A, as in all MartinLogan electrostatic speakers, optimize the transmission of high-frequency information and stereo panoramas.
The ELAC Navis ARF-51 is equipped with proprietary drivers that have been designed specifically for these acoustics and have precisely set parameters. They have a combined radiator, which consists of a 4-inch midrange speaker with an aluminum diaphragm and a tweeter mounted in its center with a 1-inch soft dome.
The ELAC Carina FS 247 floorstanding speakers have a 2.5-band configuration and, with a fairly compact size, provide an assertive sound with powerful bass. The speakers are made in damped MDF housings reinforced with additional couplers to dampen unwanted resonances.
The ELAC Concentro S507 four-way floorstanding loudspeaker occupies a junior position in the flagship speaker series. The low-frequency register is handled by as many as four 150 mm long-range woofers built into the sides of the ELAC Concentro S 507 case (two on each side) and covered with round grills. Thanks to the special ICD configuration (Impluse Compensated Design), it is possible to minimize unwanted mechanical vibrations and obtain a powerful, clear and precise bass without any staining.
The speakers have a four-band configuration, which is also necessary in this market segment. A combined treble/midrange unit is installed in the upper part of the front panel of the ELAC Concentra S509, consisting of a concentrically arranged Jet 5 ribbon tweeter and a treble/midrange driver with a 130 mm aluminum diffuser.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 Concentra M 807 is a masterpiece in form and function. The sculptural case, developed in collaboration with a renowned Hamburg design studio, shows elegant contours, refined surface finishes and a seamless mixture of high-gloss lacquer (black or white) with aluminum accents. The flowing curves and sloping surfaces are not only visually striking — they also serve acoustically and optimize the sound dissipation.
