Quad Elegan 2

Building upon the same acoustic philosophy as ELEGAN 1, ELEGAN 2 expands performance through a dedicated three-way architecture.
Separate bass, midrange and treble drivers each operate within their optimum frequency range, producing greater dynamic capability, improved vocal clarity and deeper, more controlled bass extension.
The dedicated midrange driver reveals subtle textures within vocals and acoustic instruments, while twin bass drivers provide effortless authority without sacrificing the balance and neutrality that define QUAD.
Whether enjoying intimate jazz recordings or full symphony orchestras, ELEGAN 2 combines scale with composure in equal measure.
For larger rooms and listeners seeking full-range performance, ELEGAN 2 delivers everything expected of a modern QUAD floorstanding loudspeaker.

Powerful yet composed, revealing yet remarkably easy to listen to, ELEGAN 2 delivers the scale and authority expected of a floorstanding loudspeaker without sacrificing the natural balance that has defined QUAD for generations.

It is engineered to reproduce music honestly, allowing every recording to breathe with space, realism and emotion.

By dedicating individual drive units to bass, midrange and treble reproduction, ELEGAN 2 allows each component to perform within its optimum operating range.
Twin 165mm woven Kevlar bass drivers provide deep, controlled low-frequency extension with exceptional composure. The dual driver system allows bass extension down to 32Hz.
A dedicated 125mm woven Kevlar midrange driver, housed within its own isolated enclosure, reproduces vocals and instruments with outstanding clarity and tonal accuracy.
The result is effortless dynamics, improved separation and a presentation that remains composed even during complex musical passages.

Instead, ELEGAN 2 presents music with an effortless sense of scale. Bass is powerful without becoming dominant, the midrange remains open and expressive, while high frequencies retain their detail and refinement without harshness.
Stereo imaging extends well beyond the loudspeaker cabinets themselves, creating a broad and stable soundstage that invites the listener deeper into every recording.
Whether enjoying delicate acoustic performances or large-scale orchestral works, ELEGAN 2 maintains the coherence and musical integrity that define the QUAD listening experience.

The ELEGAN 2's acoustic performance is supported by carefully developed engineering throughout.
The precision 25mm fabric dome tweeter is mounted within a profiled waveguide, optimising dispersion for consistent performance across a wide listening area.
A carefully engineered Linkwitz-Riley crossover network integrates each drive unit seamlessly, ensuring phase coherence and tonal consistency across the full frequency range.
Internally, the cabinet employs extensive bracing and resonance control to minimise unwanted vibration, while the QUAD Airflow™ bass reflex system reduces port turbulence to deliver cleaner, faster and more articulate bass reproduction.
Every engineering decision contributes towards a loudspeaker that behaves as one coherent acoustic system.

The ELEGAN 2 has been created to complement modern interiors as naturally as it complements music.
Its clean architectural form, refined proportions and understated detailing allow it to integrate effortlessly into contemporary living spaces. Premium Matte Black and real Walnut veneer finishes provide a choice of modern sophistication or timeless elegance, while subtle QUAD branding reflects the same design language as the company's latest electronics.
It is every bit as considered visually as it is acoustically.
