Naim and Elac Adante, Wow


The new Elac Adantes are creating a lot of buzz both good and bad.

We were mixed on the speakers initially as certain sonic aspects were fantastic while others were less then satisfactory.

The Adante AS 61 has a relatively low sensitivity so we thought 40 watts will not be enough.

Surprise the Naim Uniti Atom with Wireworld cables produced an intoxicating sound.

The Atom is warm and punchy so the combo matched perfectly.

Elac and Naim fantastic together and affordable.

3k amp which includes dac and streamer,  plus 2.5k speakers other then cables and stands this combo would make a lot of people very happy.

We would urge prospective Adante purchasers to seek out this combo these two products mesh while other combos of electronics with the Adantes may be why some people are not liking the speakers.

Long Rants Ct really look at yours?

Staying on topic really?

Please list all the dealers you heard Elac-Adantes and what they were using?

That is staying on topic which i see you cant as per having the last word laid everything out in the last post you didnt need the rebuttal.

Common CT look in the mirror your biases are crystal clear.

Dont make a living by writing on these posts however the amount of misinformation is staggering.

Go look at many of our recent posts where we mention TAD, Sopras as speakers to check out we dont sell either brand.

And most of our brands arent exclusive so who are we helping?


Dave, I was responding and not ranting.  There is a difference, lol.  

As I posted, but you didn't understand, threads often times get off topic and you certainly have that in you as you always have to defend yourself.

As for places I've heard them, I don't answer to you.  I never ran them down either, so I"m not sure of your problem.

I rebutted, the same way you do in every single thread Dave.  

Dave, everyone has biases.  I'm not a dealer who's selling on the boards for free.  Again, you fail to understand this basic concept.

Are you calling misinformation what posters are posting about their thoughts about products they own or have auditioned?  Staggering?  

I don't follow you Dave and I honestly don't care about who you mention or why you mention them.  

You are helping yourself Dave. If you can't see that you just aren't being honest with yourself. 
I guess we will agree to disagree.

I wonder if your posts have assisted anyone?

We can name at least 6 people who followed our advice however i see you just cant even stay on the topic which I recall is Elac.

Asked you what these people are using with them?

Get over it Ct stick to the topic or move along. 

The post is about Elac Adates and combos that work with them.

It is not about us vs Ct or anyone.

Stick to the topic or stop replying.


And this is why I dislike unmoderated forums. I click on this thread because it’s about a pair of speakers that I’m very interested in, but instead I get a pi$$ing contest between members. Sad. 
I am interested in the AS61 as well. Mostly how it sounds compared to others in its price range and how it might compare to others that cost more?

Does it do anything special sound wise to distinguish itself from its competitors in that price range? What other models of similar size does it compete with?


I would run these off a 60w/ch BEl Canto C5i integrated amp in my smaller family room system.

I also have the option of using a subwoofer as needed. Current speakers there are Triangle Titus XS. I also have Dynaudio Contour 1.3mkII and OHM Walsh 100 S3 (8" main driver) that I have run in there. All work well but somewhat higher efficiency of the Triangles is a plus with only 60w/ch in a larger open area family room.   Powered sub picks up the slack as needed.  Sounds very good!
