So, I’d recommend this speaker if you do have EQ. If you have a miniDSP - to fix the response imbalance - this might well be worth the purchase but it is definitely going to be output limited. Even the MTON distortion when “high passed” at 80Hz is quite high in the midrange. The compression is rather bothersome, too. I’ve provided a prediction of that result via REW. However, thanks to the good horizontal directivity, with a single high-shelf filter, the difference can be made up quite easily and the speaker is much better, imho. Price Competition Final Verdict Specs We purchased the ELAC Debut 2.0 F5.2 tower speakers so our expert reviewer could thoroughly test and assess them. It’s because I’m looking for specifics and not expecting broadband differences like I’m seeing in this speaker. Every now and again I come across a speaker that does something like this where the issues I have with it aren’t easily identifiable. Ill need to fully break them in and spend at least a week listening to them first. But when I saw the data I realized what it was. 1 I swear this WILL eventually be a comprehensive review of Elacs new-ish Debut 2.0 B5.2 bookshelf speakers. I couldn’t figure out exactly what I didn’t like when I was listening. It’s not like it “jumps out” at you or is “sharp” like you would get when you have a peaking in the response at a particular frequency. On the back of the M-10, you’ll find adjustable crossover, adjustable phase. The Monoprice Monolith M-10 V2 has some similar features to the ELAC but they’re only accessible on the back of the subwoofer itself. Unfortunately, there’s a weird +3dB “step” at about 1.5kHz which makes the speaker sound uneven. Ported (pluggable) 500 Watts RMS Class D. And my hope was that it would be a better alternative for those who knew they wanted a subwoofer anyway… then you could save some money and get these over the DB62. I was really hoping this would be better than the DB62 simply because smaller midwoofer should make for better directivity (all things equal). 'Elac's room is making the best sound at the show,' they said. But a couple quick notes based on my listening and what I see in the data: Stand Loudspeaker Reviews Elac Debut B6 loudspeaker Herb Reichert The first I heard about Elac's new Debut line of speakers was from two 12-year-olds at T.H.E. For details about the performance (objectively and subjectively) please watch the YouTube video. The DEQX PreMATE+ has proven itself as capable of two distinct things: 1) improving a loudspeakers. As stated in the Foreword, this written review is purposely a cliff’s notes version. Curing room-atism & correcting the ELAC Debut B6 w/ DEQX.
