will m-l cls' electrostatics ROCK???

Get yourself a pair of InnerSound Eros speakers if you seek a 'stat that can rock -- the CLS won't do what you want... Plato

Sedond, I may be able to help you. InnerSound makes a very powerful electrostatic-optimized amp that will seriously drive the CLS's, and Inner Sound speakers are among several viable options. I will honestly discuss tradeoffs with you - I have experience with quite a few planars and electrostats. E-mail me at audiokinesis@home.com.

Your CLS's would rock big time, especially in your huge room, with a pair of Kinergetic SW800 subs- designed to go with CLS's- thats 5 x 10" woofers per side. I have a pair for sale, give me an e-mail if you are interested or have any questions. audionut@home.com

I recently auditioned the Innersound Eros with their amp in my home. My room is 22x26. I was astonished at the sound of Metallica and JP on these things. They played LOUD. Add a sub at about 45 and you will have to spend a lt more to be happy in my opinion. I listened to just about every speaker under 20K. I spent a lot more for Dunlavy SC V because classical is my first listening choice and Heavy Metal my second. Nothing against ML, just want to share my experience.

Hi Sedond; If the manufacturer says their speakers are not suitable for your room and listening habits/tastes why would you disagree with them?
