1979-1980 I recall walking into my favorite audio store and listened to the ESS Heil for the 1st time.
40 some years later I can still sense the excitement of hearing them...
1399 is a great price, the ESS site lists them at 1800.
Now I’m thinking how a nice 300B amp could sound with these!
BareThose were special days for audiophiles! There were so many companies just killin' it! Dahlquist, Heil, Celestion, Great American Sound, Phase Linear, Nakamichi, Tandberg, Revox ...Difference was, if you did your research, worked a bunch of extra shifts and saved your cash, you could afford to buy top of the line equipment...something not possible now days.
