ELAC Navis F51

Description

ELAC Navis F51 is ELAC next-generation wireless floorstanding speaker featuring three internal amplifiers in a cast aluminium base.

A totally new speaker, designed the ground-up, the ELAC Navis F51 floorstander offers stunning mid and high frequency performance from a concentric element, this combines with custom aluminium woofers for excellent mid-range and bass output.

ELAC’s new Navis Series answers every minimalist audiophile’s dream of a no-compromise powered speaker driven by best-inclass 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. Add the Discovery Connect wireless transmitter to your system, and Navis becomes a wireless speaker that lets you enjoy streaming content without a cable in sight.

All New Custom Designed Midrange/Tweeter

One reason the Navis sounds so natural is because of its in-house developed transducer, a 4-inch aluminum midrange
driver with a concentrically mounted 1-inch soft-dome tweeter. Combined, this signature configuration lets Navis set the performance standard for its class.

Inside each Navis Bookshelf Loudspeaker is a Tri-Amp Pure Analogue Amplifier, employing three separate amps for each transducer: a 160-watt BASH AB amplifier for the woofer, a 100-watt BASH AB amplifier for the midrange, and a 40-watt Class AB amplifier for the tweeter. A total amplifier power of 300 watts ensures that each transducer is optimally—and amply—powered, eliminating clipping and crossover distortion, and driving each transducer with authority. Specs like a 110 dBA signal-to-noise ratio and 100 uV noise floor could only come from such audiophile-quality amps!
