Additional Info
The ELAC ESG 792 E is a forgiving, easygoing MM with a natural, relaxed voice. Vocals sit believably centered while the elliptical stylus traces a smooth top end that never turns harsh even on older pressings. Stable imaging and full-bodied bass keep pop, jazz vocals and classic rock warm and unforced rather than analytical. Part of the ESG 79x line, it uses a replaceable stylus assembly for easy servicing.
