FS 137 JET, the Beauty from the North

This slender 2½-way floorstanding loudspeaker with the high gloss lacquer baffle and the elegant silk-mat cabinet offers compact design and state-of-the-art technology, incorporating ELACs aluminium sandwich woofers and the legendary JET tweeter.

Due to its new ribbon geometry, the JET III tweeter provides a cut-off frequency of 50 kHz and is therefore perfectly suitable for DVD-A and SACD.

The special design of the baffle eliminates scattering at the edges which results in improved tweeter reproduction.

Treble Unit

JET III used in all ELAC's Classics

ELAC JET III tweeter used in all 180 Series range

The ELAC JET tweeter is one of the most legendary tweeters in the hi-fi trade and has won international renown with its unusual transparent and effortless sound image.

The JET tweeter was delveloped to perfection on the basis of the famous 'Air Motion Transformer' by loudpseaker pioneer Dr Oskar Heil. Its principle: a concertinaed foil membrane is driven by a strong magnet system of neodymium rods.

This 'motor' drives the air considerably faster than the conventional pistonic technique. High sensitivity and extraordiary dynamics are the result. Due to continuous improvement, the JET III tweeter now creates an effortless and airy resonance-free image up to 50,000 Hz, and with its linear frequency response is ideally suited for the reproduction of DVD-A and SACD.

 

Midbass Unit

ELAC 120 Series AS cone midbass - paper and aluminium

TT 140 AS midbass

The woofers of the 120 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.
