ESL 57's out to play
Bit of a laid back day for me today, so I pulled my 57's outta storage and fired them up, been playing them all day, very enjoyable...
Thought I would share a few photo's;
ESL 57 on a dedicated Rupert stand, lifts them 14 inches off the floor, improvement over basic feet;
Rest of my system, Quad 11's - Classe Audio 30 pre - Musical Fidelity M1 dac;
Happy man
