Stacked Quad ESL's
I would like to talk (chat) with anyone using stacked QUAD ESL-57's. I
customed built a set a few years ago and still enjoy using them. I modeled them after the Levenson HQD system. Twin KEF B-139 subwoofers in a 12 foot transmission lines and Decca ribbon tweeters. James BTW - the last person that I know that used them was a women in Portland, OR by the name (then) Cindy Lewis. At one time there was a person in PDX that used 3 pair of the classic speaker system. My e-mail address is: |

Worked with the Deccas extensively And worked with the Quads, and Quad cells... _-_-bear |

I'm just curious if folks are still using the system and how many are out
there. I've not had any issues other than my wife thinks they are hideous large for a 'hi-fi' loudspeaker. "BEAR" wrote in message ...

They're not all *that* large! :- ) I would think that she would find them "nice" to listen to. You might get more WAF by taking her to a store or other audiophiles house and letting her *try* to listen to those speakers - it's hard to beat those Quads even today. Btw, what are you using for amps and the rest of the system? _-_-bear |

Main units are driven with Marantz 8b's in triode mode. Custom (my design)
pre-amp and crossover electronics. "BEAR" wrote in message ... JAS wrote: I'm just curious if folks are still using the system and how many are out there.

Hello James,
I would like to talk (chat) with anyone using stacked QUAD ESL-57's. I customed built a set a few years ago and still enjoy using them. I modeled them after the Levenson HQD system. Twin KEF B-139 subwoofers in a 12 foot transmission lines and Decca ribbon tweeters. I also use stacked Quads for more than 20 years now and I'm very happy with them. Have a look at my homepage (sorry up to now only available in German language) http://www.r-stens.de/diy/QuadESL/diy_quad.php At this moment I think about building a subwoofer for my Quads. A new power amplifier project (Aleph X) is ongoing.
