Thanks very much to the two of you ....Ellajeanelle and deep_333...
I put them on my memory as a first choice USED ...
because my budget is limited ... They will cost me new at least 8 times the price of my actual completely satisfying one ... Even if i dont doubt that they will be better after my optimization process ...😊
But to give you more information , my actual self powered speakers , which i modified goes to 50 hertz as the Elac with a smaller woofer by the way ... Clear, not boomy with natural relatively good timbre and they work fine for now ...So much i dont need a sub in my acoustical corner treated and designed for them ...
If they broke i will go with a used Elac for many reasons + your two informed recommendations ...And they are relatively small then perfect for me ... And i can work the porthole and design it for my ears as i did with my low cost self powered good speakers which improved tremendously with this and vibration/resonance controls and shielding and deceasing of the noise floor level with my homemade plate ...
I thank you a lot for the kind advice ...
Making the most with the less is true audio knowledge...
You are missing out a bit. There is a true audio savant in industry named Andrew Jones who offered charity for many years. It may be practically impossible for other dudes to eek out quality sound with non-existent budgets like Andrew. You probably owe it to yourself to try one of his speakers. He uses Yamaha amps primarily when voicing his speakers.
Elac Debut 2.0 bookshelf speakers, msrp ~350 usd
Yamaha A-S301 integrated amp., msrp ~350 usd
Get them used for way less. It may be a big upgrade from what you currently have.
I bought a pair of the Andrew Jones designed speakers (ELAC Uni-Fi 2.0 UB52 Bookshelf Speakers) for an extra room while they were on sale for $419.98 recently and must say that this guy really knows what he's doing. No speaker has impressed me this much in decades. I did buy the Debut 2.0 before those and sent them back though. The difference between the two is dramatic.
