Sound/build quality of ESS transtatic I?

Posted by centaurus3200 (A) on February 21, 2007 at 10:48:21

always wanted a pair. they seem to marry the two things i love, KEF and JansZen (they us RTR, but lcose enough) ESL panels. i currently own KEF Calinda, KEF 104/2 and janszen Z-200. wouldn't this be the perfect culmination of both worlds? not to mention, I've always had a jonez for some IMF transmission lines and the transtatic uses the KEF B139 in a TL.

anyway, anybody own or listen to these speakers? what's the difference between the transtatic I and II?

lastly, i always thought that the build quality of the the later AMT sucked. relatively mediocre cabinet materials and construction and crappy woofers (not the case with the KEF units). anyway, how do the materials/ build quality measure up to something like the IMF TLS80?

thanks,
Robby
