#67 ELAC Uni-Fi 2.0 UB52: $599.00 Amazon eBay
Pros: Wide, smooth horizontal directivity - beamwidth holds to about ±60 degrees up to 8kHz before narrowing. Vertical directivity is substantially better than average, giving more listening-height leeway than most two-way bookshelf speakers.
Cons: Dipped 3db from 1.5-3khz. On-axis response shelves down above 1.5kHz along with multiple resonances, leading the reviewer to predict it will “likely sound dull.” Nasty resonance at 600hz - audible as an actual buzzing artifact on some recordings (the reviewer demonstrated it with an Eva Cassidy track), and it shows up as a sharp distortion spike exceeding 4% at 585Hz when driven to 96dB SPL/1m. Not recommended.
How it compares: Just above it: JBL Stage A120 - $300 cheaper, 0.3Hz lower bass extension (-3dB). Just below it: KEF Q100 - $49 cheaper, 1.7Hz higher bass extension (-3dB).
