Leuke en goed spelende set . Uiteraard te beluisteren €75 worden niet verzonden
Think of it against a pair of generic used floorstanders at €75: this is a solid buy, not a lottery ticket. Similar listings for these speakers tend to land more around €110–€125, with nicer examples stretching to €150–€180, so €75 sits comfortably below the usual asking band and looks like a bargain if they’re working properly.
These are well-liked old ELAC towers with a big, easygoing presentation and enough sensitivity to wake up from modest amplification. The upside here is value: if the cabinets are intact, the drivers are original, and the surrounds are healthy, you’re getting a lot of speaker for very little money. At this price, the main check is practical rather than ominous—confirm both channels play cleanly, and inspect foam/rubber, terminal plates, and any water or edge damage before you commit.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Elac, a cornerstone of German audio engineering, traces its origins to September 1, 1926, when Electroacustic GmbH was founded in Kiel by Dr. Heinrich Hecht, Dr. Wilhelm Rudolph, and Gerhard Schmidt. Initially focused on sonar technology and underwater acoustics for maritime applications, the company peaked at 5,000 employees during World War II, supplying the Kriegsmarine. Postwar restrictions pivoted it toward consumer goods like sewing machines and radios, while distributing brands such as Sony, Fisher, and Nakamichi in Germany. By 1978, it divested its nautical division to concentrate on hi-fi, with Austrian CEO Wolfgang John taking the helm in 1981 to steer its modern trajectory.
Elac excels primarily in loudspeakers, renowned for innovations like the 1985 4Pi omnidirectional tweeter and the JET folded-ribbon tweeter, which deliver exceptional dispersion and clarity. Its portfolio spans high-end floorstanders, bookshelves, and compact systems across series like Vela, Solano, and Debut, alongside turntables such as the Miracord lineup, subwoofers, and electronics including amplifiers and DACs. This broad yet speaker-centric range caters to discerning setups from entry-level to reference-grade.
Positioned as a high-end mainstay with mid-tier accessibility, Elac commands respect among audiophiles for its precise German engineering, balancing value and performance without chasing boutique exclusivity. Under John's enduring leadership, it sustains a reputation for dynamic, transparent sound that rivals elite competitors, appealing to knowledgeable buyers seeking timeless quality over fleeting trends.
