![]() The 5.2 and the 6.2 are definitely too close (just 40€ of difference!) while the 6.2 REF is definitely on a different price class. The Reference edition of the 6.2 costs something around 500€/pair, while the standard 6.2 is priced around 320€/pair and the 5.2 sells for 280€/pair. I'm going to review the 5.2 and the 6.2 bookshelf loudspeakers from the 2.0 Debut series, against the 6.2 Reference bookshelf. You can find the technical details on the official Debut Reference webpage. This new Reference series is meant to take the Debut performance up to another level, while improving the looks as well. Instead of listing all the technical details and claimed specs here, go and visit the official 2.0 series webpage, where you'll find all the information you'll need.Īlongside the 2.0 edition of the Debut series, Elac has also released a Debut Reference series, which consists of a bookshelf, the 6.2 Reference, a floorstander, the F5 REF and a center channel. Hence, I was extremely curious to test the new 5.2, 6.2 and 6.2 Reference models!Īpparently, this new series of Debut loudspeakers has been redesigned from the ground up: gone is the rear firing reflex port (now it is a front firing air duct), woofers and tweeters have been replaced by new units and the MDF cabinets have been reinforced to reduce colourations and vibrations. Just a couple of years after that excellent “Debut”, Elac decided to release a completely redesigned 2.0 series of loudspeakers, where everything was new, from cabinets, to drivers and general layout. The 5.1 and 5.2 bookshelf models were simply embarassing for their competitors, and not only that, they could easily rival the performance of 1000€/pair loudspeakers, and costing just a ¼ of that sum. The first Debut series (say, 1.0) of loudspeakers, by world renowned designer Andrew Jones ( here an interesting interview at Sound & Vision) caused a stir in the HiFi world, because of their insanely high quality/price ratio.
