FS 209 Anniversary Edition

This anniversary edition incorporates our ideas of authentic music reproduction, beautiful design and the quality of manufacture made in Germany. The FS 209 A features innovative drive units that are manufactured in ELACs production department. This also includes the legendary JET III tweeter that provides a cut-off frequency of 50 kHz.

Treble Unit

JET III used in all 240 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.

Silk Dome Midrange Unit

MT37 Midrange Driver

New 37 mm silk dome midrange driver in filigree design. Waveguide for improved horizontal radiation, directional effect in accordance with loudspeaker baffle design and high efficiency.

Bass Unit

TT 180 AS midbass used in: BS 204.2 (A), FS 208.2 (A), FS 209.2 (A), FS 210 A.

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.
