    Hello from Seal Beach, CA.... New ESL13As on the way!...

    I have found that plastic shims (Lowe’s) work well in fixing “tilt.” I also used them, with a level, to make sure the top of the 13a is parallel to the floor. A laser, measuring the top of both sides of the speaker to the ceiling, added more information. The laser also helps with the distance...

    11As or 13As?

    There is a discussion on the audiogonforum.com about “brightness” in upper midrange of 11a. As a former Prodigy and current 13a owner, I would never characterize their sound, this way. Instead of a subwoofer, I use a Black Ice SS-X Sound Expander, and never a brightness issue, regardless of...

    Why so many used ML electrostats listed for sale and less than a year old?

    One can always respond to the ad with "Why are you selling your speakers" while watching the needle on the lie detector machine, when you see the response.

    Speaker listening distance

    You may want to become sensitive to making increasingly smaller changes, in speaker placement. For example, where a move of a foot or two yields a pronounced effect, hear what a six inch change does, in either direction. Then keep making smaller changes until you sense you are "there." In a...

    A Sincere From My Heart Question Regarding the Future of ML ESL

    In conversations with the sales desk last year, it was clear that new products in the ESL line were not a priority. This candor influenced my buying decision, as there was no point in "waiting for the next best thing." Over forty years, as I went from Monolith to Prodigy, to Expression 13a, I...

    Is it safe to use a compressed air duster on my panels?

    You may consider using a Walker Talisman or other device to demagnetize your panels, while they are unplugged. Can't hurt!

    Not Happy With 15As

    I have excellent results using a small, lightweight plastic clamp that fit onto WBT terminals at about half way around (12 and 6, or 3 and 9 o'clock). This also works well on the terminals on my amplifier. I use Silversmith Fidelium cables on Expression ESL 13a. Tighter, more focused sound...

    How does rake adjustment affect sonics?

    "EVERYTHING can make a difference" also means "If you can hear a difference, then there is a difference." Lowe's sells many different packages of inexpensive shims. I had to measure the distance to the ceiling, with a laser, to try to create a level surface in my converted-garage listening...

    To Buy Or Not To Buy

    What is the worst imaginable outcome, if you get the speakers now? Either this outcome is acceptable, or it is not!
