Elac Vela 2.0 FS 408.2 – 2 Floorstanding Speakers

Key Technical Specifications –

  • High-gloss lacquered
  • Real wood veneer cabinets
  • Unprecedented fine resolution
  • Downward-facing to reduce ventilation noise

The Vela line – a combination of technologies with over 95 years of acoustic expertise and design. High-gloss lacquered or real wood veneer cabinets with a trapezoidal cross-section not only look beautiful, they also offer tremendous acoustic advantages. The Vela line builds on the successful and high-performance 400 line, but with improved imaging in stereo and multi-channel operation for modern living environments.

The advantages are numerous. Combined with the innovative design, the crystal-cone woofer and the unmatched JET 6 tweeter represent a new era in sound meets design.

 

JET 6 TWEETER

The JET 6 tweeter, a so-called AMT (Air Motion Transformer), was developed and manufactured in Kiel, northern Germany. It features an extended frequency range (up to 50 kHz), low distortion, and remarkable clarity in the upper treble range, as well as unprecedented fine resolution and dynamics.

 

Downfiring

The bass reflex port of the Vela series is downward-facing to reduce ventilation noise and allow for greater installation flexibility.

 

ALUMINUM SANDWICH WOOFER

The special aluminum sandwich construction combines two advantages in one: light weight and high rigidity. Thanks to the high torsional rigidity of aluminum, combined with the high internal damping of the cellulose cone, the AS-XR (Aluminum Sandwich – Extended Range) woofers produce clean and precise sound without unwanted resonance or distortion.
