Morel, a global leader in handcrafted high-performance loudspeaker technology, has announced the launch of the Elate Carbon Neo and Elate Carbon Neo Pro, the next evolution of its acclaimed Elate Carbon series.
Rather than reinventing what made Elate Carbon successful, Morel focused on the areas that matter most when the music begins: lower distortion, greater efficiency, faster transient response, improved high-frequency performance and an even stronger sense of openness, control and realism.
Engineered to Disappear, Designed to Be Seen
At the heart of the series are Morel’s TLC Triple-Layer carbon-fiber/Rohacell composite-cone woofers and midrange. Their low-mass, rigid construction supports precise movement and detailed reproduction, while Morel’s large external voice-coil architecture and optimized motor systems provide the control and power handling required for serious high-performance automotive systems.
For the first time, the exterior design has been elevated to celebrate the engineering within. Each driver is framed by a precision CNC-machined brushed-aluminum contour, making the loudspeaker no longer simply a component to conceal, but an object of precision engineering and craftsmanship worthy of becoming part of the installation.
The Driver Lineup
- ECN MW6 Woofer: 3-inch voice coil, rated at 180 watts RMS.
- ECN MW9 Woofer: 3-inch voice coil, rated at 200 watts RMS.
- ECN MM3 Midrange: A 3.9-inch neodymium-motor driver built on the same TLC cone architecture, rated at 120 watts RMS with 87 dB sensitivity, for a fully matched three-way system.
Two Expressions of Elate
Elate Carbon Neo continues the Elate tradition of high-power, high-fidelity performance in a more installation-friendly format. It introduces the new MT-550 tweeter, featuring Morel’s handcrafted 28 mm Acuflex™-coated soft dome and an optimized double-neodymium motor system. The MT-550 is rated at 130 watts RMS with 90 dB sensitivity and a stated frequency response of 1,400 to 25,000 Hz.
Elate Carbon Neo Pro takes the same foundation further for systems where the highest expression of the platform is required. Its refined ECN Alto tweeter pairs a more powerful neodymium motor with Morel’s newly developed ASW™ Anti-Standing Wave rear chamber, engineered to reduce internal resonance and distortion behind the dome for greater clarity, openness and spatial definition. The Alto uses a 28 mm hand-coated Acuflex tall soft dome and is rated at 180 watts RMS with 91.5 dB sensitivity and a stated response of 1,400 to 25,000 Hz.
Built for the Installer, Created for the Listener
The series supports both passive and active system design. Passive configurations use Morel’s MXT280C two-way and MXT380C three-way crossover networks, with bi-wire/bi-amp capability and level adjustment. For advanced active systems, Morel provides recommended crossover guidance while allowing experienced installers to optimize around the processor, mounting positions and vehicle acoustics. Two-way and three-way configurations are available, including 6½-inch and 9-inch system options.
Two systems. Two levels of performance. One unmistakable Morel philosophy: Unleash the Music.
