ELAC - Adante... what’s the verdict?

Just purchased these 2 days ago. Still running them in. 

Changed some speaker cables out. These speakers are amazing. Better than I expected - took a gamble and bought based on the feedback from the shows without auditioning. I was a die hard B&W fan before. These speakers have exceeding my expectations . 

I was using AQ Type 4 and switched to AQ Rocket 44 with nordost jumpers. The speakers sounded great at set up. I've had a few days to absorb what these speakers can do. Simply amazing. Low end is exceptional. These speakers benefit from the soft dome tweeter, I know this was a design change from the original debut in Jan 2017. I was planning on purchasing B&W 705 S2 but wanted a stand mount with deeper low end. These speakers best the 705 S2 IMHO. 

Great. Look forward to you feedback.  Congrats on the purchase!! I love mine!

Another review for Elac Adante AS-61

Completely agree with Audio Doctor. These are special and unique speakers. I have them partnered with Parasound gear with Audioquest cables and they are dynamic and truly sing in ways I could not have imagined at this price point. 

I have had mine for almost two months and they have really opened up nicely. I did some swapping during this time as well which made a difference. Love these speakers but agree they may not be for everyone. But really what speaker is ? We all have different tastes in how, when and where we listen to music. This is what makes this hobby so great!

Audio Doctor, Look forward to your review. Thx for your post!! 

Contuzzi. Good to hear you can laugh out loud I was afraid you were containing all of your constant laughter inside. 👍  Time to kick back and listen to my Adantes on this fine Saturday - did that make you laugh out loud too? 

Bought these speakers 4 months ago, I still get amazed at their capabilities. Partnered properly the Adantes are simply in a class of their own. No I am not a dealer just someone who appreciates well produced music. Adante owners rejoice!!! 

The Adantes do need a considerably long break in period. I will say if you have the patience and willing to take the journey with these speakers you will be rewarded. It's been 4 months and the bass, treble and midrange have opened up to reveal this speakers true ability. It has been a great journey thus far. These have become my favorite speakers so far in my 30+ years in this hobby. Feed them solid quality watts and you will be amazed. 

The Adantes with Parasound amp sounds quite nice. The Adantes do open up nicely about 4 months with regular use IMO. PARASOUND is somewhat on the warm side and Adante need this kind of amplification to sound their best.
