I'd like to see some reviews in other than 'Luxury Lifestyle' magazine.

Is there any mention if Tim Mellow is attempting to recreate the circular point source concept of the Quad ESL 57?

I noticed the same thing and could see no reference, nor could I access any of his patents.

The ESL 57 did not use the "circular point source concept" -- that started with the ESL63, and continues with their current models.  QUAD's original ESL used three strips arranged in a W-M-T-M-W configuration.

You are right, of course. I didn't notice the reference was to the ESL 57.

Correct--my mistake, as I was a Quad ESL owner of the latter designs-988. Still, the point source aspect is the most interesting to me. Loved my Quads but they just couldn't play quite loud enough for my taste.
