A win for Elac
Best Surround Systems 2022 Sound and Vision
"Germany’s Elac made a brilliant return to the U.S. market in 2016 with a series of excellent speakers designed by Andrew Jones, who had previously worked for Pioneer and its one-time high-end speaker division TAD (Technical Audio Devices Laboratories). As it turns out, the Uni-Fi Reference UBR62 surround speaker system is the last system Jones designed before leaving the company, following a highly successful run. Once again, Jones has left his mark.
The five-piece system we reviewed comprises four UBR62 bookshelf speakers and a matching UCR-52 center-channel speaker — all built around a coincident midrange-tweeter that positions a 1-inch soft-dome tweeter at the apex of a 5.25-inch midrange driver where the dust cap usually sits. Two UBR62 speakers would make for a nice stereo setup but in a multichannel theater setting you’ll want to add a subwoofer to this ensemble"
