weird that it’s the same price as the Debut Reference bookshelf, and these new tower are actually $100 more expensive.
But yes, would be very interested to see how it stacks up to the DBR62.
I too am dying to know about this. Having listened to the DBR62, I fell in love with them. I never listened to the original unifi, and I'm trying to know how the 2.0's tonal characteristics compares to the DBR. I emailed ELAC about this but got a very bland response which means almost...nothing:
"Hello,
The UniFi 2.0 have a similar tonal character to the Debut Reference speaker. The UniFi 2.0 is better for music as it is a 3-way speaker design where the Debut Reference is a 2-ways speaker.
Also the UniFi 2.0 has a concentric mounted tweeter and midrange driver which gives it really good sound stage and imaging.
For dual use Music and home theater either one can be used. Go with the Debut Reference if you prefer a nicer looking real wood veneer cabinet.
Go with the UniFI 2.0 if having the best sound quality is the number one thing for you.
Respectfully,
ELAC Customer Service"
I mean... seriously?!?
