Masterpiece in miniature

The ELAC 301.2 redefines the standard for small systems and brings the technology of a much larger, high end speaker in a tiny package. This is possible due to the optimized driver with an oval aluminium sandwich woofer stacked with a silk fabric dome tweeter in an asymmetrical coaxial array. The advantage is a wider ideal listening zone and a sound with a quality that becomes wonderfully detached from the speakers and which is less depending on the listeners position. Incidentally the size of the woofer was maximized which contributes to the maximum possible SPL and ultimately enables this kind of performance at the small size given.

Wall brackets are included. Desktop stands and floorstands (LS-Stand Cinema) are available separately as an option.

Midbass-Treble Unit in asymmetric coaxial array

Early in the R&D process of the 301.2 coaxial driver the idea was to improve the sound performance of a bass driver based on a predefined enclosure size.

The solution came quickly and led to the present oval shape. More difficult was the design and integration of the tweeter. The goal was being compact without compromising sound quality.

In search of the ideal position of the tweeter, multiple listening sessions proved that a concentric orientation of both drivers did not deliver acceptable results. This finally led to the asymmetric coaxial array. After further listening tests and multiple measurements it was obvious that a premium and well-balanced solution in this particular case could only be achieved far from what the textbooks would suggest.
