Elac Navis ARB-51 Powered Speakers
Designed by Andrew Jones. Everything you wanted in a powered speaker, and also an upgrade path.
Elegant three-way speakers with 300 Watt amplification for those for whom quality is not negotiable. If you are challenged for space, ELAC’s new Navis Series answers every minimalist audiophile’s dream of a no-compromise powered speaker driven by best-in-class amplifiers that are truly deserving of the name “high end.” While most powered speakers rely on Class D digital designs, ELAC engineers build in 300 watts of pure analog amplification— for maximum power and exceptional sound.
Inputs
Each speaker has an RCA and XLR input for no-compromise analog direct wiring. The Elac Air X2 Module is an optional wireless transmitter that sends the signal to Navis.
Reviews
"Elac's active three-way compact is beautifully finished. with a rich full-bodied midrange, it projects a warm, cozy aura that proves ideal for vocals. (Fans of choral music will revel in the clarity of massed voices) The Elac has a weighty, bottom-up sound that suggests a speaker that not only doesn't need coddling but actually dares you to crank it up - way up. A hallmark of active bass is the way it grabs onto rhythm tracks, orchestral percussion (like kettle drums), or organ pedal points with the steely grip of a raptor. One of the rare small compacts where you don't have to scale back expectations in order to enjoy it."
