Enjoy brilliant audio with this floor speaker that features an 8" high-excursion, doped fiber woofer cone for booming lows and a 34" Xstat Curvilinear Line Source (CLS) electrostatic transducer with 292 sq. in. of radiating surface for amazing sound.

I've had these for about 10 days now and am soooo glad I purchased them. I traveled around auditioning speakers for 3 months, including speakers costing 300% - 500% more expensive than the motion ESL's. These sounded just as good as all of them. I would say that they are a little light in the low end, but that's what subwoofers are for. My friends have come over and been blown away with the "concert in your living room". I splurged and went with the Motif center, depth i sub, and FX2's for rears. I have a Yamaha RX-A3010 receiver powering it all, with no Amp. It sounds awesome with 150 watts of clean Yamaha power... especially the SACD's I'm playing through my Oppo disc player. This surround system is one of the best investments I've ever made in my life... but I LOVE music.
What's great about it: quality sound, imaging, sound stage, clarity
What's not so great: very tall and wife factor - not liking that they're so tall
I would recommend this to a friend!
Other Best Buy Products I Recommend
MartinLogan - Depth i 8" 900-Watt Subwoofer - Black Ash
Yamaha - AVENTAGE Network AV Home Theater Receiver 1350-Watt / 9.2 Channel / RX-A3010BL

You've never heard Dark Side of the Moon like this - guaranteed! After listening to it a million times over since the mid-80's, I heard an all new DarkSide today. If you've got the right gear (which obviously you must if you're playing SACD's), I heartily recommend this. BTW - Wish You Were Here SACD is the same way. Buy them both now if you haven't already. Now the powers that be just need to get Meddle, Animals, and the The Wall onto SACD format too!
What's great about it: 5.1 surround sound, no "noise"
I would recommend this to a friend!
