Lost in Translation
Hi.
I have eyed a set of ESL 57s. I have always wanted to have a listen, and I have read that it will actually work as near field monitor, so I am tempted.
The first real problem is the dimensions of the speakers. In many ways the ESL 63 would be better for me because of its proportions, but The QuadESL 63 needs to be placed well into the room as far as I know. Is it possible to place the ESL 57 on its side?
Another challenge will be the demand of the Quad ESL 57s on my Amcron/Crown D150 Series II amp. Any pointers? I have had a FirstWatt F4 in the pipeline for the longest time, so I would also like to know if this will be able to work well with the Quad ESL 57.
Thanks!
