Fancy something different? Martin Logan's ESL X is a terrific option
Exceptional detail and clarity through the midrange and treble ; Good integration ; Superb sonic finesse
Fussy about placement ; Bass could be more powerful ; Need to be plugged into the mains
The ESL X is an excellent alternative to the class-leading conventional box designs at this price

THE MARTINLOGAN ELECTROMOTION ESL X SPEAKERS are the best-sounding electrostatic speakers I have ever auditioned in my home.

The words transparent sound have never suited a speaker in this class better. Read our review of Martin Logan Electromotion ESL X.
Lightning-fast dynamics, open, detailed and transparent sound image with crystal clear midrange.
Limited with sound pressure and deep bass.
Martin Logan’s Electromotion ESL X, has perhaps the most natural and colorless midrange reproduction of any speaker in this class. It also has lightning-fast dynamics and very generous bass reproduction. Other speakers play louder, but few play so...

Replaced some 1986 vintage Infinity RSIIIB.
Extremely clear sounding across all frequencies
