Design Goals

Our goal was to build on the success of the Elac 240 series We wanted a that maintain our heritage, with a modern contemporary design yet unmistakably Elac. Our key objectives were :
• Develop new driver designs to offer differentiation
• Give some shape and add material to beautify
• Use die cast baskets with diamond cut but remove rectangular metal around driver
• Use JET Technology
• Maintain a family look
• Preserve the traditional look but modernize it

Carina

Results

We have taken our 240 series and reimagined it, bringing a modern contemporary design inspired by the Life of Sound! The simple, yet striking Carina Series, offers more than just remarkable sound.

Aluminum Woofer 

Compound Curvature Cone

Utilizing a single piece cone construction with compound curvature, the cone has been optimized for extended response and pure piston operation throughout its operating range, to seamlessly blend with the JET tweeter. A rigid cast chassis supports an oversize magnet with large vented pole piece to maximize drive force, minimize non-linearity and provide increased power handling and dynamic impact.

Air Motion Tweeter

JET

Delivering true high-definition sound, ELACs JET tweeters have been at the forefront of tweeter performance, providing extended high frequency response, wide directivity and high efficiency for lightning-fast response and wide dynamic range.

Downward Firing

Port

The die cast double flanged super silent bass reflex port on Carina faces downwards, exiting the bottom of the speaker cabinet to be redirected outwards, minimizing vent noise and allowing for a more flexible speaker placement.

Floor standing models have rear and down firing ports to deliver incredible low end extension
