[1] This is a turn-around. She resisted having large speakers in the
living room for some time. Then a week or so ago she suddenly suggested
we give it a try. I think she has over time become accustomed to good
sound, and hence fallen victim - like myself - to the idea that the
sound matters more than the clutter. :-) The down-side is that I'll
now have to buy another pair of ESLs for the main hifi in the other
room.


And two more surround, eventually. ;-)


If I put *four* ESL63's in the living room we'd have no space left to sit
there in between them! :-) As it is, we struggled to fit in the Christmas
tree.

However the other room - which has the main hifi - is larger. Hence there
is a risk that in due course we will move the TV/DVD system into the 'hi
fi' room, and end up surrounded with speakers. :-) I doubt we'd go beyond
4.1 with ESL's, though. That said, I still have the LS3/5A's... :-)

Slainte,

Jim
