A very rare oppertunity to puchase
Loudspeaker Description
To begin with, the SUPER ELF is not just a warmed-over former ELF. It is more the result of long-term observation of the needs of many who inhabit small spaces and/or demand fine tone quality but do not play music very loud.
This does put a different emphasis on the task. It is very hard for a loudspeaker to possess refinement and play loud, likely expensive and large in size as well. (Law of physics, you know.) If, however, one concentrates on purity of tone as a primary goal, somewhat limiting overall power capabilities, then much can be done. Size, shape and cost can be optimized to produce a very high quality of performance. That was the program for the SUPER ELF, and I believe we have achieved something quite special.
The particulars are a new generic form of titanium dome tweeter with neodymium motor, and a damped friction loaded vent inspired by P.G.H.A. Voight. The enclosure is our standard 13-ply Finland birch with or without special face veneers. We are confident the SUPER ELF will set a new standard of performance for a moderate size enclosure at a reasonable price. Your ears, of course, will be the final judge.
