ELAC FS197
ELAC FS197 floorstanding speaker, suited to both hifi systems and audio-visual installations, designed to handle sustained volumes as well as the finest nuances.
Description
The FS197 is a floorstanding speaker from ELAC, designed to fit as well into a hifi system dedicated to music listening as into an audio-visual installation intended for home cinema. Its purpose is to cover a wide range of uses without requiring any additional specific equipment.
This speaker stands out for its ability to increase in volume without losing control, which makes it suited to the dynamic passages of a film soundtrack as well as the crescendos of a musical work. It is also described as capable of rendering the most subtle nuances, a point that matters for listening to acoustic music or fine dialogue in audio-visual use.
The FS197 is aimed at a user who wants a single pair of speakers capable of covering two uses: demanding music listening in hifi and the comfort of an audio-visual system for home cinema. It will suit those looking for versatility of use rather than strict specialisation on a single type of content.
What to check before buying used
Check the condition of the woofer surrounds, which can harden or crack over time and affect low-end performance. Also inspect the cabinet: corners, veneer and finish are particularly exposed to knocks when moving a floorstanding speaker of this size. A check of the ports and rear connectors usefully completes the inspection before purchase.
