Elac Loudspeakers?

I just purchased a pair of elac FS 68 and I am having trouble getting enough bass from them...I agree they seem to need lots of power...anyone try Plinius? or simaudio?

I think they can double-down into 4 ohm

I've just ordered the Elac 248's and matching centre channel. Can't wait for these guys to come in. Very hard to find reviews (non UK) online for these

just a follow-up...my FS 68 have been breaking in and bass is better now...these need time to settle in but do like lots of current IMOP. I am using cables from purist audio design with the elacs and work very well with them. I dont understand why there are not more reviews of this company its been around for years and the product is excellent. I believe the British magazines are biased towards their own stuff.

The 208A's are great speakers for the cost.

I purchased two pairs of these in 1985 . I inverted the second pair on top of the others to increase the fullness and achieve a higher volume level.

It so happens they re made in Toledo, OH where I live. I toured their facory and purchased them for $265 a pair.

Bringing up an old thread. I have the Elac FS 247 SE (Sapphire Edition). These speakers are very nice looking. Check out some pictures. I have about 500 hours on mine. Like others have said, you have to invest in cables and compenents that are the right match. Not sure I am there yet and I'm not sure what their upside really is but it seems like it responds to changes moreso or to a different degree than other speakers I have owned. I really like the sound I am getting. I still have 3 other speakers (VSA Unifield 3s, WLM La Scalas, Fritz Carbon 7s) in house between two systems so I will still be using all of those as well. The Elacs certainly are a value in that they sound a lot better then their asking price IMO. I know they are not not well known in the USA but it would be nice to here from others that have heard ELACs updated lineup.
