QUAD ESL 2805 - Manual (Page 10)

Whilst for most ESL customers the
important factor is performance with
two-channel stereo sources, be those
analogue or digital, for a growing
number of customers 'home cinema' or
even multi-channel music is now also
becoming an important consideration.
To create a system which is able to
excel at both is a difficult task. Typically
the dispersion of traditional moving
coil loudspeakers and also the use of
three screen channel speakers; create
various unwanted interference patterns,
which effect quality of the sound and
ultimately your enjoyment.
For home cinema use, the ESL is quite
remarkable. Although there is no
dedicated centre channel to match
the new ESLs, most Home Cinema
amplifiers feature a 'phantom' centre
channel mode.
Such is the ability of the ESLs to project
a stable central image, the lack of a
centre channel has been regarded by
many as an advantage.
The unbroken frequency response and
natural presentation of the vocal track
is uncannily realistic - a hypnotically
immersive experience.
