Elate Carbon 93: 9-Inch 3-Way
The Elate Carbon shares most of its high-end componentry with its Pro siblings but takes a more practical approach. These 3-way systems are designed for those who want flagship performance with a discreet tweeter that fits most factory locations.
The compact MT450 tweeter can be mounted in most factory positions or into space-limited areas using the supplied mounts. Despite its small size, the MT450's Acuflex coated silk dome, open cavity design and dual neodymium magnet motor deliver fine detail and a smooth, flat frequency response.
All Elate Carbon 3-way systems include the MM3 midrange. This compact unit uses Morel's EVC motor, a high-power 2.1" diameter voice coil and a highly damped carbon fibre/Rohacell cone, allowing it to play low in frequency with strong control and serious power handling. These qualities improve overall system performance while keeping the driver small enough for most factory midrange locations.
The MW9 woofer features a Klippel-optimised EVC motor with a large 3-inch diameter voice coil and a carbon fibre/Rohacell sandwich cone for ultra-low distortion and high power handling.

About the Morel ELATE CARBON 93
From our tech experts at CEN
The Morel Elate Carbon 93 is a 9-inch (222mm) 3-way passive component speaker system, comprising MW9 woofers, MM3 midranges and MT450 28mm Acuflex silk dome tweeters, with MXT380C passive crossovers included. The MW9 woofer handles 200W RMS via a 75mm Hexatech aluminium voice coil and a carbon fibre composite TLC cone. This is the passive version; an active DSP-ready variant exists in the Elate Carbon range.
Who it suits
Suited to enthusiasts who want a large-format, high-power 3-way speaker system and prefer passive crossovers over an active DSP setup. The MT450's compact body fits most factory tweeter locations. For a 6.5-inch alternative, browse the Morel collection.
Our tech experts advise
Confirm your doors or enclosures can accommodate the 222mm woofer and 100mm midrange before ordering. The system supports bi-wiring and bi-amping if you want to add separate amplifier channels later. Installation cost varies by vehicle — speak to our Nottingham team about fitting.
