Any idea what's the best way to stack ESL57's? Should they be coplanar

Bit of a can of worms... :-)

My own preference

Thanks. I might try your method or one of the following: Isobarik. Two
rooms. Sell a pair on ebay. Home theatre.

Well, these days if I had four ESLs to use in one room I'd be tempted to
make them 'surround'. However this does raise the question of what might be
needed for a 'center' speaker... :-)

I assume Quad are investigating this question at present. Using 988's or
989's for the front/back left/right may be OK, but they might be a wee bit
big to use as a center speaker... ;-

Slainte,

Jim
