Occupying a distinctive position in Wharfedale's flagship range, the ELYSIAN 2R incorporates dedicated drivers for each section of the frequency spectrum: a 27 x 90mm Air Motion Transformer (AMT) high-frequency driver, a 150mm (6\") coated glass-fibre matrix midrange driver, and an 8.5\" (220mm) coated glass-fibre matrix bass transducer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLow-frequency extension down to 28 Hz (-6dB) is facilitated by Wharfedale's Slot-Loaded Profiled Port (SLPP) bass management system, which vents internal cabinet pressure downward through a profiled plinth slot to simplify placement near room boundaries. Featuring Generation R crossover refinements with high-silicon-iron-cored coils, air-core inductors, and direct-path circuit board layouts, the ELYSIAN 2R delivers wide dynamic bandwidth, articulate bass control, and transparent vocal focus for high-end stereo playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES \u0026amp;
