ELAC B6.2 Debut 2.0 Bookshelf Speakers

Som perfeito de acordo com a informaç\ao prestada para o produto

Y a pas à dire c’est Vraiment une bonne enceinte... équilibrée, dynamique. Pas prise de tête. Un grave surprenant après une petite période de rodage (20h) et une transparence qui surprend comte tenu du prix !!?? Leur inconvénient ? Elle méritent un ampli de qualité. Elles sont branchées à un ampli numérique SMSL AD18 et n’ont aucun problème pour les driver mais je sens qu’elles en ont sous le pied... J’ai hâte de les associer avec qque chose de meilleur et je risque d’être surpris encore une fois... J’avais une paire de KEF R300 qui étaient EXCELLENTES mais manquaient un peu de dynamique et de vie dans la partie medium/aiguë. Ce n’est pas le cas des ELAC B6.2. Chaudement recommandées. PS: j’ai possédé: KEF R300, KLIPSCH R15M (excellente) DALI ZENSOR 3, MISSION LX2

The speakers look beautiful and is solid, heavy and of very good build. Treble is refined, not brash nor tinny and bass extended which belies its small size. Positioning is very important to extract the best bass quality and is very well worth the effort. The pair stands its ground against my venerable Linn Helix LS150 which cost me 4 times more in 1990s dollars. Best of all, I got them at the unbelievable price of less than S$400 without shipping costs. Amazon do have some great offers at times!

I used these Elac speakers to replace my Logitech computer speakers. I've been upgrading my computer systems from cheap speaker to more expensive cheap speakers and never achieving great sound. With the advent of high bit rate YouTube channels, Tidal, Roon, and other high res streaming services, and my own dabbling in recording my vinyl collection, I've come to realize that I have to get out of the good-enough league and join the big league. So adding ELAC speakers to my computer system is the first step. This will no doubt lead to better DACs, better Amps, and ultimately to an entire ELAC home theater system, but I'll worry about that later. These speakers are rated at 44-35,000 Hz. Through a YouTube tone sweep, I have found that my old ears can HEAR the 45Hz-14kHz range. Anything above that is lost to me, so to fill in the low end I've added a Dayton Audio bass shaker to my computer chair, allowing me to feel the 5-45 Hz range. Placed beside my Boston Acoustic CR9s from the late 90s, The Bostons seemed to have a deeper but more uncontrolled bass response. They do have a bigger cabinet, and are rear ported but I could imagine the speaker cone deflecting wildly with the bass it was being asked to reproduce. I would gladly replace the Bostons with the ELACs given the tighter response and control those speakers exhibit. To be fair, BA has evolved over the last few decades as well, so modern Bostons might still be very competitive - but not at this price point. I'm mainly listening near-field - the speaker baffles are flush with my computer monitor. They are very forward and authoritative - The mid to highs show off every flaw in my recorded vinyl (so now I can make a list of recordings I have to fix), but the bass absolutely kicks! For now I'm using a cheap amp - the SMSL AD18 HiFi Audio Stereo Amplifier with Bluetooth 4.2, and the sound is not disappointing. The ELACs seemed a little harsh at first, but as they relaxed, and as I got over the initial 'let's rock these babies' and turned down the volume, they started to sound a lot more pleasant. I love the front firing port so I don't have to worry about placing them up against the wall behind the computer desk. I haven't found many CONS yet. If I wanted smaller ELACs I certainly could have found smaller ones, but not for the price I paid for these. The rubber inserts that hold the speaker grill to the enclosure hold on extremely tightly. If you're the kind of person to remove and replace the grill often, get a soft tool to do the job. The speakers didn't come with rubber feet or pads so I placed mine on some closed cell foam while I look for a better alternative. Otherwise objects on my desk rattle with the speakers at higher volumes.

I ordered these on an impulse, when the Amazon price suddenly raeduced by 20%, but they were already on my shortlist of three hifi speaker upgrades. I'd researched them based on my needs, budget and what was most suited to the size of my room. The Elacs were the cheapest of my options and I'd planned to demo them all at a hifi shop. Having heard them, the search is over. These speakers provide everything I wanted from the upgrade. I'm hearing a wider sound stage (the music seems to come from behind and beyond the edges of the physical placement of the speakers) and there's good separation of all the instruments and voices. Lots of detail too. Even very dense recordings, such as of whole orchestras, retain a good level of clarity. The frequency range is very good, both the highest notes and a great bass response: solid, well defined and not mushy. I've been using a sub-woofer with the previous speakers but may not need it now. The biggest improvement is in the mid-range: crisper and smoother voices and drums. I also get that hard to define rhythmic quality which tells you all the bits of a recording are in synch and your speakers are getting everything to your ears at the right time. Something else that's hard to define is when speakers are easy, rather than tiring, to listen to. Sometimes you have to work to pick out different bits of a recording but the Elacs serve it all up together with no effort necessary. The previous version of these speakers got excellent reviews but the company still went ahead and created the current model, which is significantly different, even including the design and dimensions of the cabinet. The professional reviews of the 6.2s are excellent. One design feature that may be relevant to potential buyers with limited space is the position of the bass port on the front rather than the back of the cabinet. This allows more flexibility in placement: you can put the 6.2s closer to a rear wall than you generally would. There is a lot of nonsense talked about hifi equipment and we're all hoping to find the bargain which is every bit as good as the kit costing tens of thousands of pounds. The Elac B6.2s are not that, they couldn't be, just exceptionally well designed and put together speakers which are really enjoyable and easy to listen to, as well as amazing value for money.
