ELAC BS 100

The ELAC BS 100 is a limited passive 2-way compact loudspeaker for demanding stereo systems. It combines classic ELAC design with modern technology such as the JET 6 tweeter, 150 mm AS-XR woofer-midrange driver, and high-quality bi-wiring terminal. This makes it particularly suitable for music lovers looking for a compact loudspeaker with precise high-frequency resolution, controlled bass, and high-quality craftsmanship.

ELAC BS 100 – Anniversary Edition with Character

The ELAC BS 100 revives one of ELAC's most influential design eras. Inspired by the Spirit of Music generation and the esteemed BS 403, this compact loudspeaker combines a classic appearance with current loudspeaker technology.

JET 6 Tweeter for Fine High-Frequency Reproduction

The JET 6 tweeter features an advanced foil layout that reduces resonances, linearizes the frequency response, and minimizes distortion. This results in precise, airy, and high-resolution reproduction in the high-frequency range.

AS-XR Crystal Membrane for Dynamics and Control

The woofer-midrange driver with AS-XR crystal membrane combines stiffness and damping. In conjunction with the optimized magnetic system, it supports a wide usable frequency spectrum, high dynamic reserves, and controlled bass reproduction.

Flexible Integration into Demanding Hi-Fi Systems

The high-quality bi-wiring terminal allows for integration via single-wiring, bi-wiring, or bi-amping. This makes the ELAC BS 100 particularly well-suited for high-quality hi-fi systems where connection flexibility and clean signal routing are desired.

Placement

The ELAC BS 100 is particularly suitable for small to medium-sized rooms (up to 30m²). Thanks to its compact dimensions, it can be flexibly placed on a lowboard, in a stable shelf, or on suitable loudspeaker stands. The integrated base already provides decoupling from the surface, so additional decoupling feet are generally not required.

What amplifier power is suitable for the ELAC BS 100?

ELAC recommends amplifier power of 40 to 200 watts per channel. The amplifier should be suitable for loudspeakers with 4 to 8 ohms.
