ELAC VELA FS 408 Floorstanding Speaker – VFS408

    • The ELAC Vela FS 408 is a 2½-way bass-reflex floorstander that marries refined aesthetics with advanced acoustic engineering. Its driver complement includes dual 180 mm AS-XR® aluminium-sandwich cone woofers and a JET 5 folded-ribbon tweeter, enabling a claimed frequency-response down to ~28 Hz and up to ~50 kHz. hi-fi++3hi-fi++3on-off-on.ru+3 With a nominal sensitivity of 88.5 dB and nominal impedance of 4 Ω (minimum around 3.6 Ω), it calls for a capable amplifier to truly deliver its best. hi-fi+ The cabinet is thoughtfully designed with a trapezoidal shape, downward-firing port, and high-gloss finishes (Black High Gloss or White High Gloss) to suit premium listening rooms. studio-hifi.com+1 In use, reviewers praise its agile high-end response via the JET5 tweeter and a tight, controlled bass delivery for its size.

Description

  • A complex design: high-class lacquered and wooden veneered cabinets, which have a trapezoid shape and are angled rearward, combined with aluminum and glass.

    The design catches eyes but conduces acoustics, too. The sound of VELA shows its family background in the successful series 400.

    But the advantages are distinct. The angling of the cabinet in combination with the new wave-guide of the JET tweeter improves the definition of stereo and multi-channel audio in modern furnishing. But there are more than the obvious changes. For example, the optimized drivers are able to reproduce high-energy transients more precisely.
