I am purchasing the Elac 248's and my dealer is using McCormack DNA 225 and says he loves this combo. I instead will be using an Emotiva XPA-5 once I get these speakers...He was very convinced that would be enough amplification and I trust him fully...I havent heard your combo yet so cant comment on that
I have the FS 68. I agree they line a lot of current by mine are fine in bass, after the break-in. Takes a while. I use Thule audio integrated amp and it works well. I use Purist audio cables so brightness is minimized. I am really happy with these, they really are engaging.
hi the elac does not need a lot of power as my amp is the odyssey stratos / 150 w into 8ohm i trade in my alon for a brand new pair of fs 207.2 at a very good price// you know the euro is high it is not broken in since i got it last friday but i do not feel extra brightness with the JET 3 tweeter it is guite airy 926 is good but i cannot compare the elac with it right now except that the bass of the 926 is better because of the number of drivers and the size
i think one should compare the 210/ 209.2 with the jmlab the elac is a bit lean right now thanks norman
I had a pair of the tiny 101 bookshelf monitors and they were surprisingly good for the money. How do the 207.2 compare to your 926? I know the FS series needs lots of power to get enough bass to balance out the treble - otherwise they can sound bright and analytical.
