    I have some ESS but don't remember the model. Same design and appearance as their original AMT-1 but have a 10" woofer and PR instead of 12". Kick drums kill them but everything else sounds really good. I ended up putting 4 12" powered subs in the room to take care of bottom end. The AMT mid-tweets are what shine. They produce things in recordings that I can only hear with my Artimas EOS speakers. What did you want to know about ESS?

    Actually I'm fairly Familiar With them in general have had a couple pair over the years and found some original user manuals for the Aforementioned Models and was going to gift one to an owner if I could find one.
