ELAC IW-V61-W 6.5-Inch In-Wall Speaker

ELAC IW-V61-W In-Wall Speaker

The ELAC IW-V61-W In-Wall Speaker is a 6.5-inch Integrator Series in-wall speaker for home theatre and music systems where the speakers must be heard but not seen, and the ELAC IW-V61-W In-Wall Speaker delivers the full frequency range from inside the wall cavity itself. Its 1-inch cloth-dome tweeter and 6.5-inch polypropylene woofer are voiced for accurate, uncoloured reproduction, and the paintable magnetic grille lets the whole speaker vanish into the wall once installed.

Why Choose ELAC IW-V61-W In-Wall Speaker?

In-wall speakers are often a compromise, bought for looks and forgiven for sound, and the ELAC IW-V61-W In-Wall Speaker refuses that trade: the polypropylene woofer and cloth-dome tweeter are proper hi-fi drivers, the 2,200 Hz crossover is built from audiophile-grade parts, and at 89 dB sensitivity it is an easy drive for a normal AV receiver. Because it shares the Integrator family voicing with the matching in-ceiling and centre models, a full room of Integrator speakers stays consistent, and the rectangular format fits neatly beside a screen or along a side wall where a box speaker would intrude.

Key Features

• 6.5-inch polypropylene woofer: Smooth, accurate midrange and bass from a driver built for in-wall use.
• 1-inch cloth-dome tweeter: Detailed, non-fatiguing highs for long film and music sessions.
• High sensitivity: 89 dB at 2.83 V/1 m, easily driven by standard AV receivers.
• Invisible finish: Paintable magnetic grille over a black baffle for a flush wall appearance.
• Simple in-wall fit: Spring-clip terminals, included cutout template, and quick-turn mounting brackets.
• Family matched: Voiced to match the Integrator in-ceiling and centre speakers in the same room.

Best Suited For

The ELAC IW-V61-W In-Wall Speaker suits home theatres needing left, right or surround channels without visible boxes, living rooms where speakers must blend into the wall, and multi-room music zones. It is a passive speaker requiring an amplifier or AV receiver, and it is sold singly, so a stereo pair or a full theatre needs one unit per channel.

Setup and Connection Guide

Cut the 187 mm by 295 mm opening with the included template, keeping at least 100 mm of clear depth and clearance from studs, then run speaker cable with slack at the opening. Connect to the spring-clip terminals with correct polarity, fold the mounting tabs in, insert the ELAC IW-V61-W In-Wall Speaker and tighten the screws until the brackets grip the wall firmly without over-tightening, then press the magnetic grille into place. Run the receiver’s room calibration, and set a subwoofer crossover around 80 Hz if a subwoofer is in the system.
