That is the exact point. Would the choice of speaker, say, a UK speaker e.g. LS3/5A, give advantage to UK amp in the comparison?

The Quad ESL (Electrostatic Loudspeaker) was introduced in 1956. It was a truly amazing speaker for the time, and is still a product to be reckoned with today. Dubbed "Walkers Wonder" after Peter Walker, head of Quad and designer. Many people, myself included, believe that it is the most faithful and natural midrange transducer ever made. At the frequency extremes, it also holds up well, the treble is never spitty or tizzy. The bass is fast and clean without ever being boomy, it only goes down to about 40 Hz, so the bottom octave is missing. Production of the original ESL stopped in 1981 shortly after the introduction of the newer (and different although not necessarily better) ESL63. Over the 25 year production run, approximately 60,000 speakers were made.

But the Quads also have some downsides. First, they are fragile. They need about 15 Watts of the best amplification you can get your hands on (see the Heathkit UA-2 EL84 (6BQ5) or Fisher SA-16 amps). If you use a larger amplifier or try to overdrive the speakers, you risk arcing. Arcing occurs when the potential across the stator panels is sufficient to ionize the air and spark across the gap and through the membrane. Arcing will ruin the panels, if it occurs enough times or is severe. The Quads will play up to about 100 dB, which is much louder than I play music even when playing loudly. The second downside is that they are a difficult load for the amplifier to drive. They are highly reactive loads (primarily capacitive). Their impedance drops as the frequency increases. This makes the Quad ESL a bad choice for single ended tube (SET) amplifiers.

Thanks for Patrick's hospitality, and also the coffee by Patrick CEO.

The cofee is the best I have never taste before.
Patrick's esl speaker is the best esl I experience :-)

As there is a tweak on your 12 Plus, I am interested to compare yours with mine :-)
----------------------------------------
that will be a comparison bet. 12aX7 & EF86.

(for the one who don't know what i'm talking about : my 12plus were "modified" by an idiot ebay seller to use 12ax7 instead of EF 86 ! )

So would that be a Leak ST20 circuit instead?

John,

Not really "high" hand but a bit old hand - only 6 years old - anybody can be just with some more enthusiasm than ususal. :)

This is Quad II, right? Stict to 3W R12 but it looks difficult to find NOS 3W.

2W R12 is insufficient and will get too hot and then drift in value. Try 5W R12 as an alternative.

I hesitate to ask, is this the only set up for your Chartwell?
