Re: ESL for SET?

I understand what you like about ESL speakers, but you know that they hardly present the kind of load that works with SET amps.

And Klipsch, as good as they are, don't quite match up with many other vintage offerings like Altec, etc, and are a far cry from modern compression driver technologies.

Regardless, I still have some difficulty accepting that congestion originates in a suitibly matched SET amp/speaker combination, which makes me wonder if pursuit of your line of reasoning will ever bear fruit, or not....but you will like what you will. :)

Heard the 'Rippingtons' last PM in an outdoor venue. I think that current pro-sound set up philosphy may be the 'ultimate evil' when it comes to quality audio. Of course, I don't like soft [fluffy] rock/smooth jazz either.
