Elipson has added a new pair of loudspeakers to its impressive Facet II series with powerful amplification and excellent connectivity. The Prestige Facet II 6 Active BT speakers are powerful bookshelf models that promise the same high standards as the Facet II 34F floorstanders and Facet II 8B bookshelf speakers.
The new Prestige Facet II 6 Active BT speakers come with 2 x 50W Class D amplification, plenty of wired inputs for both digital and analogue needs, Bluetooth for wireless connectivity and a choice of three colours: black, black/walnut and white.
That means they’ll work with a host of tech, including turntables, computers over USB-C, all sorts of things over Bluetooth and even your TV over HDMI ARC, with Elipson pitching the speakers as a superior soundbar alternative.
