A Touch of Elan

Elan 10

Visitors to the Acoustic Arts rooms at 7001 and 7003, Level 7 of the JW Marriott, KL International AV Show 2012 will experience first hand the new Epos Elan Series of speaker system which comprises four models, the compact standmount Elan 10, the larger standmount Elan 15 and two floorstander, the Elan 30 and 35.

According to Epos the model numbers indicate the speaker cabinets’ internal volume in litres and effectively replaces the older Mi Series. Standard features of the new Elan speaker include a 25mm soft dome tweeter with ferrofluid cooling for high power handling capability and magnetic shielding.

Bass –midrange drivers are a 156mm unit used in both the Elan 10 and Elan 30. The latter features dual 156mm drivers. The Elan 15 and 35 comes with a larger 187mm bass-midrange unit where two are used in the Elan 35.

All Elan speakers are designed for maximum efficiency and sensitivity ratings range from a high 89db from the smallest Elan 10 to as high as 93db for the Elan 35. As such, claims Epos, the Elans can be driven by amplifiers with power output from as low as 10 watts yet accommodate amplifiers with power output as high as 200 watts.

All models also feature simple but affective 2nd order crossover filtering using only the highest quality audiophile grade crossover components .

In living up to its series name which loosely means refined, stylish and gracefulness the Elan speakers are finished in real wood veneers available in either Black Oak or Cherry finish.
