![]() Many alternatives within the same budget from the likes of Klipsch or Polk Audio had a bright and sometimes harsh, treble-heavy characteristic. One of the things that made the original Debut B6’s so popular among people buying their first pair of ‘serious’ bookshelf speakers was its beefy lower end. ![]() Most budget bookshelf speakers simply don’t scale this well. Jumping from a fairly standard $400 Marantz receiver to a high-end Roksan Blak, the improvement in sound quality was significant. One thing that struck me was how well the Elac Debut 2.0 B6.2 scales with better sounding equipment. Its 87dB sensitivity and 44Hz-35000Hz frequency response mean it won’t have trouble filling entire rooms. CompatibilityĮlac recommend hooking up the B6.2 to any amplifier that provides up to 120 watts per channel. ELAC have improved the internal bracing to better support the drivers and most importantly, tinkered with the voicing to give it an all-new sound signature. However, the biggest differences are invisible to the eye. You can therefore have it slightly closer to a wall without resulting in an accentuated bottom end. It is of course front ported instead of rear ported, giving listeners more flexibility as to where they place it. The 6.5-inch aramid fiber woofer and 1-inch silk-dome tweeter keep the same grille designs, so nothing new here. The proportions are similar, although they’re now taller, deeper and narrower-giving them a slightly less obtrusive appearance. On the outside, the black ash wrapped enclosure of the Debut 2.0 doesn’t look much different. The original ELAC Debut B6 speakers look similar, but less refined than the new Debut 2.0Ī lot of things remains the same.
