About the Morel Elate Carbon 53A

Alexander H.

Premium materials and design

Both the midrange and the woofer use a carbon-fibre/Rohacell cone that minimizes distortion for the most accurate sound possible.

For a better factory fit

Morel enhances the performance of their MT450 open-cavity silk dome tweeter with a coating of Acuflex™ compound, which helps damping for a natural sound. Its compact design makes it in easier fit in more factory tweeter locations.

Build an active system

Passive crossover systems are not included. Morel designed these Elate Carbon speakers to be neutral, without coloration, so that you can use your active crossover to craft exactly the right sound for you and your vehicle. You'll need an active crossover to use these speakers. If you would like to use passive crossovers with this system, optional Morel MXT380C crossovers are available

Why choose Morel?

It's hard to not feel overwhelmed by your choices when deciding which component system is worthy of your car... and your ears. But if you're looking for the best, Morel's component speakers soar. Every bit of that excellence is due to their passion for sound and their insistence that every hand-made Morel driver be tested to meet their premium standards.

Installation note: You'll need a pair of our universal backstraps to install the tweeters in most factory locations.
