Have been following the progress,
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING.
As an owner of a Martin Logan 5 speaker HT setup, I so want to hear these, shame I live so far away.
What is going to be engraved? Name??
Keep up the GREAT work.
Cheers
Steve

Kim, those are beautiful.
Having actually heard the ESL-1's I'm looking forward to hearing them with the new amp at LSAF next year.
I've heard Kim's ESL's at 3 different LSAF's, both the Large ESL-1, and the smaller one's he had finished the Thursday night before the show ( sounds like something I'd try to pull off...) . I've always thought they were outstanding loudspeakers. I love the dynamics of the ESL's. Kim's speakers also have excellent imaging too. It's worth a trip to this little boutique Audio Show just to hear these. It's a bonus that there are usually a whole pot full of other excellent things to hear too.
See you in May.
John

I am sitting here listening to some Vangelis on the speakers literally watching paint (or in my case polyurethane varnish) dry and I have to say that the longer I listen to them the better they sound. I have them full range now, no crossover, and the amount of bass is actually pretty good. A sub would go deeper/louder but I am actually not missing anything. I am starting to rethink the high pass coupling cap.

i've had full range 'stats for about 20 years (ML CLS) and i've never had an issue with the bass. string bass in particular is exquisite. Try some Jay Leonhart (DMP label) or Holly Cole's first album.

So will your customer ever get them, or have you lived with them so long you decided to adopt them??

Front. So you can see them when you sit down in your listening chair.
