In Reply to: Re: Amps for ESL-57s? posted by coolhand on April 12, 2007 at 07:58:25:
Hello. Thanks for your reply. Well, I like mostly rock, but I'm quite allround i my music taste. I don't play very loud, but I do appreciate rythm and timing - foot tapping. Coherence and "flow" is also imprtant. I like it when the music/stereo creates emotions, and not just entertainment. My main woory, is if the 57s will be able to communicate some of the energy and vitality of my Yes, Genesis, King Crimson and Jethro Tull records? Will SRV's guitar sound anemic and thin, or will the ESLs make me play airguitar? Room size is about 16sq. meters.I bought the 861 because I wanted a pre/power from the same family, and it was easy to hear that the 864 and 861 was a perfect match. Very coherent combo. Good bass performance - tight and controlled. I find it a bit hard to describe since this combo doesn't draw much attention to it self - a relief for my brain. Makes it easy to just enjoy the music without too much analysis. Communicative, I would say. Transparent, but not too analytic. A bit on the warm side, but not soft or romantic. I like it a lot!
Regards
Johan
