Naim and Elac Adante, Wow


The new Elac Adantes are creating a lot of buzz both good and bad.

We were mixed on the speakers initially as certain sonic aspects were fantastic while others were less then satisfactory.

The Adante AS 61 has a relatively low sensitivity so we thought 40 watts will not be enough.

Surprise the Naim Uniti Atom with Wireworld cables produced an intoxicating sound.

The Atom is warm and punchy so the combo matched perfectly.

Elac and Naim fantastic together and affordable.

3k amp which includes dac and streamer,  plus 2.5k speakers other then cables and stands this combo would make a lot of people very happy.

We would urge prospective Adante purchasers to seek out this combo these two products mesh while other combos of electronics with the Adantes may be why some people are not liking the speakers.

@Audiotroy,

I always look forward to your posts. When I saw that you started this thread I took the time to read it because I knew I would learn something. The Elac Adante are not something that will fit my needs but I knew there would be something you say here that I would find valuable.

I built 2 systems in the last 6 months using A'Gon as my listener resource and I could not be happier with the results. Your posts have largely helped me navigate to the destination that I ended up. The systems I built only have 1 piece that you guys carry, the KEF LS50. The rest you guys do not carry however, the info you provided here helped me build 2 great systems for my office and bedroom. Knowledge is power, thanks for sharing.

When I get my 3rd living room/family room system going later in the year (I hope). I am going to make a point of buying something from you guys, even though I am on the other side of the country. 

I like it when dealers post here and other sites. Lots of very passionate and informed dealers posting online. Of course, everyone has their opinions and bias, but so what.
