The Elements Plus E 835 mid/high unit provides even greater flexibility and power than its older brother (the E 435) when you want to set up bigger systems, says the company. Loaded with eight speakers, it can handle 300 watts at 8 ohms' impedance, and it comes highly recommended if you want to minimise the number of mechanical connections in your rig.
