ELAC Vela BS404

The beautiful ELAC Vela line, ELAC Vela BS404 brings stunning design and outstanding technical ability combine to ensure class-leading performance from a full size stand-mount speaker.

A sophisticated design: high-class lacquered and wooden veneered cabinets, which have a trapezoid shape and are angled rearward meet brushed aluminium. The design of Vela Series is eye-catching on the one hand but supportive of smooth sound replication on the other. The sound of Vela shows it´s direct connection to the highly successful 400 Series, but the new Vela Series offers even more: The new wave-guide which minimises baffle reflections, the specially shaped baffle itself and the angling of the cabinet – they all improve the definition of sound.

Together with drivers which have been optimised to reproduce high-energy transients more precisely the Vela Series comes prepared also for rooms with the latest interior design.A complex design: high-class lacquered and wooden veneered cabinets, which have a trapezoid shape and are angled rearward, combined with aluminium.The new VELA BS 404 is a full-size bookshelf speaker featuring all the great technologies and beloved design elements of the highly successful VELA series.

The design catches eyes but conduces acoustics, too  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 multichannel audio in modern furnishing. But there are more than the obvious changes. For example the optimised drivers are able to reproduce high-energy transients more precisely.

VELA BS 404 complements the existing lineup by adding a bigger brother to the more compact VELA BS 403.
