Following the great success of the DCB41, praised for its exceptional performance and compact size, there was a clear demand for a larger, more powerful version. The answer is the ELAC ConneX DCB61. Featuring a larger woofer, a more spacious enclosure, and advanced technologies, this active speaker delivers even deeper and more powerful audio reproduction. Additionally, the improved amplifier design and user-friendly app elevate the user experience to a higher level.
High-Quality Amplification and Speaker Cabinet
The DCB61 is equipped with an innovative Dual-Amp amplifier design that drives each speaker chassis separately. This 4-channel system provides 2 x 60W for the woofers and 2 x 20W for the tweeters, resulting in a powerful and dynamic sound output. The powered speaker connects to the second speaker via a supplied cable, creating a stereo soundstage.
The large 165mm “long-throw” polypropylene woofer produces deep bass, while the 19mm soft-dome tweeter with a large waveguide ensures optimal high-frequency dispersion. The built-in Dolby Digital decoder allows seamless integration of TV sound and provides authentic 2.1-channel audio for an immersive listening experience.
Easy Control via App and Remote Control
The ELAC ConneX DCB61 is designed for ease of use. Thanks to a specially developed app, users can easily configure settings such as EQ, placement optimization, Auto On, and volume control—all from a smartphone or tablet (Android and iOS). For added convenience, a remote control is also included, and volume and input can be adjusted on the back of the speaker.
Flexible Connectivity and Inputs
This speaker essentially functions as a complete audio system. It supports various sources and connectivity options:
- Bluetooth LC3+ for wireless audio streaming from smartphones, tablets, or laptops.
- HDMI-eARC for connection to TVs and easy volume control via the TV remote.
- Analog inputs for external sources like CD players or turntables.
- Digital optical input for digital audio from devices such as gaming consoles.
- USB-B (24bit/96kHz) for connection to PC or Mac, including volume control.
- Option to connect an external streamer via RCA/Cinch or digital optical input.
The LED indicator on the active speaker shows the selected source in different colors, and its intensity can be adjusted via the app or remote control.
XBass Technology
For bass reproduction, ELAC offers the XBass technology, allowing you to adjust the bass response according to your preferences. Since optimal bass varies depending on personal taste, room acoustics, and source material, XBass can be toggled on or off via the remote control and offers two amplification levels. This gives you the freedom to fine-tune the bass to suit your listening needs.
A Complete and Flexible Sound System
The ELAC ConneX DCB61 combines powerful performance with ease of use and versatility. Whether you want to enjoy music, movies, or gaming, these active speakers provide high-quality audio with extensive connectivity options and personalization features. Thanks to advanced technologies and intuitive controls, the DCB61 is an ideal choice for anyone seeking a complete and flexible audio system.
