Beautiful by Design

The BS 602 X-JET provides the new X-JET coaxial midrange-tweeter drive unit, a cabinet with cross-frame hybrid technology and a great number of other technical features.

This 3-way bass reflex bookshelf speaker offers the perfect audiophile speaker for smaller rooms, home theater applications, studio monitors or any application where smaller stand mounted or bookshelf speakers are preferred. The best fitting loudspeaker stand is the LS 65 which is described in topic "Accessories".

X-JET coaxial and coplanar Midrange-Treble Driver System

The new X-JET is a unique combination of a flat aluminium honeycomb midrange ring radiator and a concentrically arranged JET tweeter. By this the X-JET design realizes the vision of an acoustic point source!
This facilitates an optimized acoustic power response and results in a homogeneous and very wide sound dispersion angle (s.a. the graphics below) which provides for a new kind of relaxed but very precise reproduction.

The ultra lightweight honeycomb diaphragm provides a reduced stray magnetic field combined with a strong neodymium drive. The system is driven by a 78 mm moving coil. High efficiency is achieved using coppered aluminium flat wire, edgewise-wound, on a ventilated capton bobbin.

The new X-JET system yields a upper cut-off frequency of 50 kHz. This makes the loudspeaker an ideal component for the reproduction of DVD-A and SACD.

Bass Unit

TT 180 AS midbass used in: Spirit of Music MK III, FS 609 X-PI, FS 608-4Pi, FS 607 X-JET, BS 602 X-JET, CC 601 X-JET.

The woofers of the 200 Series are designed in the ELAC proprietary aluminium sandwich technique. In a special glueing procedure, an aluminium foil of 0.2mm is joint to a pulp fibre cone to form a sandwich membrane. The result: reduced partial oscillations, no distortions and an optimised large signal behaviour.

Due to the specially wide double asymmetrical ('DAS') rubber surround, ELAC's TT 180 woofer can handle up to ±15mm long stroke. This provides maximum level supply and mellow low bass. For a driver this size, such a large displacement represent a unique engineering achievement.
