"The speakers are specialists from ELAC in recent years has become tired, always new technical routes in Lautsprecherbau to go. As a synthesis and culmination of this development ELAC now has the FS 609 X-PI presented a speaker, as the statement is technically feasible at the moment in Lautsprecherbau to understand. "
"... It has ELAC for reasons of quality control its production back more and more into domestic Kiel relocated. Meanwhile, one proud that over two thirds of the manufacturing process again take place in Germany, the innovation will work anyway has always been in the northern German headquarters instead ".
"Technical highlights of the development are inter alia for some time produced 4Pi-round spotlight and the new JET Koaxialtreiber. In the high-end 600 series boxes, these high-tech with the converter is also completely self-designed mid / bass combined. ... "
"... The curving side walls and the Topplatte feel inevitable when touched - we want our new equipment so with all your senses grasp - quite cool to. Our demand showed that the sides, top and base plates made of aluminum, while back and baffle MDF exist. A glimpse into the inner workings of the box displays an elaborate Verspantung and Verstrebungen to stabilize. ... "
"... The 18 centimeter in diameter woofers are in a technology referred to as LLD executed. This abbreviation stands for" Long Linear Drive "and refers to the construction, in a fairly short voice coil in a over a wide area very homogeneous magnetic field moves, so that a gigantic linear stroke of ± 8 millimeters can be achieved. ... "
"The JET driver, is a coaxial and komplanarer transducer designed. ELAC In this exclusive design is central and tweeters not only on one axis, but also on a plane. This is the greatest closer to the ideal of a point source reached. ... "
"...> 2500 hertz, the famous JET III tweeters, according to the Air Motion principle, the frequency range up to 50 kilohertz ... Some of the best (and most expensive) tweeter in the world operate on this principle. So why have An additional Hochtonstrahler, if a very good part is? For all the benefits of the JET offers, he even begins, from about 10 kilohertz sound clusters. This bypasses the 4Pi-round spotlight with a circular ribbon, the sound energy evenly completely in space .... "
"With all these details breathtaking technique remains the all-important question: Sounds like the whole thing too? The answer is a firm Yes, strictly speaking, several Jas ..."
"... As soon as the first tone sounds, leaving the box for the listening room. This is obviously not meant to be understood, there is much more to me by a few outstanding acoustic transducers known effect that the box your own existence denied by only the music can speak. Speaking of talk: It's almost scary how realistic the ELAC-box speakers in the listening room can occur. "
"... The spatial figure moves at the highest level of broadband loudspeaker, without the driver the lowest in the nakedness would sonic neutrality. Breadth and depth of musical events play almost entirely independent of the real position of the speaker. The FS 609 X PI is in the best sense of neutral transducer, which played music signal dazuerfindet nothing, but no information unterschlägt ... "
"... There is a similarity to the pattern of very good studio monitors, not from one country to another and certainly not entirely unintentional. Enables you now 4Pi tweeter, it seems suddenly another box to play with a radiant charm in the listening room ... conjures. "
"... The dramatic effect of 4Pi tweeter is however a still once more in depth opening stage. To win this is already nearly perfect box still difficult to brief and not to be measured atmosphere, the difference between a very good speaker and a superior mind. "
