ELAC DEBUT F6
The Debut F6
loudspeaker combines the advanced drivers of the B6 bookshelf in a
floorstanding 3-way, bass-reflex design that takes Debut performance to the
limit. With sound that rivals speakers costing many times more, the F6 shows
that quality components and superior engineering are a winning combination
every time. Combine a pair of F6 with a Debut powered subwoofer for a truly
stunning two-channel audio system.
Custom-Designed
Drivers with Aramid-Fiber Cones
Aramid fiber
is employed in the woofers of all ELAC Debut passive speaker systems. Aramid
fiber offers a superior strength-to-weight ratio and improved damping
characteristics over conventional paper or plastic drivers. This added strength
means arriving at designs that achieve a broader bandwidth with smoother
response.
Silk-Dome
Tweeter with Deep-Spheroid Custom Waveguide
The
waveguide surrounding the new ELAC high-frequency driver features a custom,
deep spheroid profile to improve directivity control and shield the dome
tweeter from cabinet diffraction modes inherent in traditional box enclosures.
Intricate
Cossover
A custom
multi-element crossover with high-grade components in each speaker ensures
smooth transition between the drivers.
Robust
Cabinets
Every ELAC
enclosure is engineered for the long run with thick MDF outer walls and a
luxurious textured vinyl finish. The cabinet of the F6 incorporates specially
designed internal bracing to add stiffness and strength to the cabinet’s outer
walls. This bracing greatly reduces cabinet vibration, which causes unwanted
coloration to the sound. ELAC believes that the only parts of a speaker that
should be moving are the speaker drivers themselves.
Superior
Build Quality
Count the
parts and look at them closely. These don’t look like the components that go in
such competitively priced speakers, but rather, speakers that cost much more.
