Sound is not the same for everyone
Listen to PINK Floyd's "TIME"

Ask each person what they hear and you will get very different responses.
I remember the first time I heard the ESS Transars - WOW. (No longer made by ESS. They had problems with the plates.)
Listen to the ESS AMT6. I have a pair of Martin Logan AERON i now
and they sound just FANTASTIC! I use to dislike electrostatic speakers!
All the science all the maths finally comes down to the listener's EAR! Also the type of music the person likes.
That is why there are so may speaker mfgs.
I believe the best speaker in the world is the one that sounds the best to you!!!!
I love the sound of a KLIPSHORN. (You may not) He once said, what the world needed was a good 5 watt amplifier! (Patented in the early 40s and NEVER updated.)
After you build a Rolls Royce what do you build next!
ALSO as you get OLDER the sound changes - tell me about it!
What I believe is to pursue and keep on looking for better ways to reproduce sound as close to the original as we can.
Remember we had wax then vinyl then CDs.
When an ESL is mixed with a woofer it has a less tinny sound.
How about a ESL horn!
(It does exist!)
Keep up the go work.
All the best.

Chinsetta , are you finished with your project , any possibility of posting test results...
Hi a.wayne,
No. I've not started testing anything yet. I'm still waiting to hear from Arend-Jan on what I will have to do. 😀

Unfortunately i have no ESL projects in tow at the moment , but i was promised by my friend i would be able to test his triple stack Quads. Time has not been friendly to us of late and we have not been able to get our schedules to mesh to do so .

I have been working on transformer issues lately.
As I have small ,meduim(4xsmall) and large(2x medium) sized panels to compare d/s,traansformer ratio, bais voltage, driving power requirements, surface area and open area, issues.
In order to make this study realevent a standard size or sizes should be decided for all to use and compare against.
I have been meaning to post this earlier, as this is the field of research i started seven years ago but got delayed until now. jer

I'm back from vacation but due to circumstances in very short supply of spare time so far. This is a community effort so feel free to pick up where I left, I don't have the time to do the heavy lifting right now. I'll join later when there is more time.
