After turning the audiophile world on its collective ear with the remarkable Debut and Uni-Fi Series loudspeakers, ELAC undertook the mission of creating one of their most ambitious speakers to date. About it, ELAC's chief engineer Andrew Jones says, "With Adante, what we're trying to do is bring excellent value to a new price point."

Adante will surely redefine your concept of what it is possible for an affordable loudspeaker to achieve. Adante's advanced design starts with a precision-built cabinet that features Interport-Coupled Cavity bass loading to exploit the highest performance from new active and passive bass drivers. The inherent superiority of this design solution delivers some of the most authoritative, realistic bass around. Complementing Adante's custom low-frequency drivers is the all-new concentric midrange/tweeter, a natural-sound wonder engineered expressly for the Adante series. To make sure they look as good as they sound. The face of each cabinet is an elegant front baffle for maximum rigidity, contoured to incorporate waveguides that ensure optimum dispersion from each driver.
