Product Description
Elac Navis B51 Active Speakers is driven by 300 watts of top-class pure analogue amplification built in for optimum power and excellent sound. Transform Navis into a wireless speaker using Discovery Connect wireless transmitter (sold separately) to enjoy streaming content free from cables.
State-of-art Drivers
Designed from scratch, the full-range monitor-standard B51 incorporates ELAC concentric-driver technology to provide unmatched mid and high-frequency performance, paired with a bespoke aluminum woofer for genuinely impressive bass, all in a single compact and elegant enclosure. Each of the three transducers is driven by its own committed analogue amplifier with a choice of RCA or XLR balanced inputs.
Custom-Designed Midrange/Tweeter
The natural sound can be partially attributed to the transducer that is developed in-house, a 4" aluminum midrange driver with a concentrically mounted 1" soft-dome tweeter. Together, this signature set up enables Navis to set new performance standard in its class.
Custom-Designed Woofer
Navis’s sole woofer replicates bass with authenticity thanks to the special design of its driver. The 5¼-inch aluminum cone is the most suitable structural material chosen for its ability to provide slam, punch and precise low-frequency fundamentals.
Beautiful Cabinets
Navis’s sophisticated design ties in perfectly with any interior. Its enclosure has a fine-furniture finish available in Gloss Black or Gloss White. A devoted floor stand finishes the installation and is recommended for maximum performance.
Powerful Trifecta
Within each Navis bookshelf speaker, a Tri-Amp Pure Analog Amplifier incorporates three separate amps for each transducer; 160W BASH AB amplifier for the woofer, 100W BASH AB amplifier for the midrange and a 40W Class AB amplifier for the tweeter.
A complete amplifier power of 300W assures that each transducer is amply powered removing clipping and crossover distortion and driving transducers with authority. The 110 dBA signal-to-noise ratio and 100 uV noise floor can only be found in such audiophile-quality amps!
Flexible Connections
Inputs include balanced XLR, RCA and Wireless while ELAC’s Discovery Connect wireless transmitter streams Discovery, Spotify Connect, Bluetooth, AirPlay and Roon. Switching Wireless “Off” grants a no-compromise analogue input and output.
