The original Quad ESL saw the light of day in the '50s. Within its

Hey, within my limitations I'm the fastest sprinter in the world.

Seriously, nice though the ESLs are they are seriously lacking in
the
lower registers.

No more so than many modern speakers. Because the bass is so clean and
resonance free, it can seem lacking to those not used to them. Of

they are also very room and position sensitive.
This is true.
Many people want "impressive" bass response and they won't get that from
the ESLs.
