Hi amigos,
After listening, I had the opportunity to purchase a pair of Elac FS 247.4. I might as well tell you that at €1000 per pair (new), I got a golden deal)
And what a big slap in the face! These speakers are exceptional from the first listen.
For instance : nn the complex title Grare: "Paris- Istambul" - SHANGHAI (which I really recommend to everyone), these speakers were super comfortable, all the orchestration was clear and well balanced. On the title "Another day of Sun" La La Land, same impression, everything was readable and clearly detached.
I took immense pleasure in listening to all my playlist, these speakers simply impressed me! So much so that I still wonder how these speakers with such small woofers could go down so low without a burr! From top to bottom of the spectrum, everything was actually there. In short, I remain super impressed )
Concerning the quality/price ratio: it's difficult to fault them for anything... except that they are made in Asia.
Elac has taken great care with the quality of assembly, the internal cables are even covered in foam to avoid any vibration. As for the design, we stay on simple lines but the basic cabinetry seems well designed. The speakers come with decoupling spikes and everything is well explained in the user manual.
@amirm : I think it would make some of us happy if you could test these speakers)
My Setup :
3E Audio Power amp
Sabaj A30A FDA / Power Dac
Sabj A10D balanced DAC
ELAC FS 247.4 speakers (black)

Nominal impedance (±20% tolerance): 6 ohms
Sensitivity: 85 dB (2.83 V / 1 m; 500-5000 Hz)
±1.4 dB for horizontal dispersion (0/15/30 degrees, 300-10,000 Hertz).
Crossover frequencies: 250 Hz / 2.5 kHz
