One hallmark of the Essence line is that it will not suffer from cabinet coloration because there are no conventional speaker cabinets to resonate. In conventional speakers, cabinet resonance is a problem to be solved through bracing and other costly engineering methods. In an electrostatic speaker, there is no cabinet so there is no resonance, thereby recreating the sound of a live performance more faithfully than any other type speaker. Because it's diaphragm is lighter than the air it moves, an electrostatic speaker is capable of moving 10 times faster than a conventional speaker cone, delivering clarity and resolution of such high definition that hearing them is considered by many to be a religious experience, one that creates goosebumps when you listen. Those who know, know. Those who have heard an electrostatic speaker never forget the sound. When done correctly, it can be magical.
