Editors' Choice Award 2019 – The Absolute Sound Magazine
The Foundation for a Serious Stereo or Multi-channel System
With its new custom drivers and improved cabinet design, the Debut F5.2 is the foundation of a serious two-channel system or the nucleus of an impressive multi-channel setup. Add an app-enabled ELAC subwoofer and you have a full-range system that delivers big-league sound, affordably.
The Debut F5.2 won an Editors' Choice Award 2019 from The Absolute Sound magazine. "The floorstanding F5 leverages the strengths of the compact B5 – its warm, relaxes, and responsive midrange, surprising bass extension and tunefulness, and strong sense of musical truth – the significantly builds on them… A veritable gift to budget-conscious audiophiles and the younger audience."
The Debut F5.2 is a three-way design with three high-performance 5-1/4" aramid fiber cone woofers and a new 1" cloth dome tweeter. Aramid fiber offers a superior strength-to-weight ratio and improved damping characteristics over conventional paper or plastic drivers. This added strength means arriving at designs that achieve a broader bandwidth with smoother response. Three dual-flared ports contribute to the smooth and accurate sound quality.
All-New Design for an All-New Debut
Few speakers have garnered such critical acclaim as the original Debut Series by ELAC. They established a new value proposition, with build quality and performance never before attainable at such an affordable price. Debut "changed the game," and has now changed it again with the Debut 2.0 Series—proof that ELAC can't leave well enough alone. Redesigned from the ground up, these speakers sound even more remarkable than the ones that sparked the revolution in affordable high-end sound.
Everything about Debut 2.0 has been improved, including completely redesigned custom drivers that deliver greater accuracy, and robust cabinets for even higher resolution and freedom from resonances.
New Tweeter with a Wide-Dispersion Waveguide
ELAC's new silk-dome tweeter features a wide-roll surround and takes response up to 35,000 Hz for even more lifelike high frequencies. The waveguide improves directivity control and eliminates the diffraction modes inherent in traditional box enclosures.
New Woven Aramid-Fiber Woofer
The revised shape of the aramid cone offers even greater stiffness and damping, far superior to polypropylene or paper. The added strength allows more flexibility in design to achieve a smoother, extended low-frequency response.
New, Larger Cabinets
Thick MDF cabinets with a luxurious black ash Vinyl finish are larger, and incorporate specially designed internal bracing to add sti ness and strength. This bracing greatly reduces cabinet vibrations that cause unwanted coloration to the sound. Because the only parts of a speaker that should be moving are the speaker drivers themselves.
