Do I need a separate amplifier?

Yes. These are passive speakers with no built-in amplification, so they need a stereo receiver or amplifier rated for their load.

Is the pair included?

Yes, the B6.2 is sold as a matched pair of two speakers.

Can I put them close to a wall?

Yes. The bass port fires from the front, so the speakers tolerate close-to-wall placement better than rear-ported designs.

How do they compare with the original Debut B6?

The 2.0 version adds a new tweeter waveguide, a redesigned cabinet and a front port, which owners say gives more controlled bass and easier placement.

Are they good for home theater?

Yes. They work well as front left and right channels, and the line includes matching center and surround models.

Can they be wall-mounted?

Yes. The cabinet is designed to accept wall mounting, though a sturdy bracket is needed given the size and weight.

Our take on the ELAC B6.2 Debut 2.0 Bookshelf Speakers

The ELAC Debut 2.0 B6.2 is a two-way bookshelf speaker built around a 6.5-inch aramid-fiber woofer and a 1-inch cloth-dome tweeter, sold as a pair. It is the larger bookshelf model in Andrew Jones's Debut 2.0 line, with a front port that lets it sit close to a wall. It suits stereo listeners and home-theater setups that want full-range sound without tower speakers. Against similarly sized rivals it trades a little sensitivity for deeper bass and a warmer midrange, and owners rate it highly for the sound it delivers for the size.
