Quad ESL
The
Contemporary Electrostatic Loudspeaker Design
The new ESL-2805 and ESL-2905
Electrostatics are Quad’s latest reference
loudspeakers and like their predecessors
should be regarded amongst the finest
loudspeakers in the world today. In
areas such as transparency, and lack of
colouration, they are without peer.

It should be noted that whilst moving-
coil loudspeakers are the norm, the
physical principles upon which they
work are fatally flawed - and not even
the latest advances in materials science
can address their shortcomings.

Quad alone has sought a different path
- to push the boundaries of electrostatic
technology to the point where our ESLs
are closer to the ideal loudspeaker than
any other.

With possibly the lowest distortion
of any loudspeaker, the ESL can be
enjoyed for hours on end without
fatigue; never adding or subtracting
from the original recording. Even at low
volume levels, they retain the full detail
and drama of the music.

In short, the Quad ESL technology is
unique in its clarity of sound, lack
of distortion, lack of interference and
continuity of response.

loudspeakers are the absolute pinnacle
of that technology. Engineered without

become modern classics.
