I was able to listen the 11L with Arcam (A75 + CD72), I found the set up very good. Quiet airy, good imaging. Also heard on Nad (C320 BEE + 541i)..Still good but the Arcam set up was better..

I find interesting to note that many people are using those Quads with much more expensive electronics..I'm curious to try them and compare with my old KEFs 104aBwhich still have a very nice medium...I guess the Quads are going to be much more revealing...
I heard also very different opinions on the 11L vs 12L: some say the 12L is a much better speaker than the 11L and my dealer is telling me the 11L is a more coherent. Any opinion ? Is the bass response the only difference ? While looking at the spec, freq. range is the same and sensivity of the 12L is better.

Hello, my dealer also prefers the 11L..I have also discussed with a reviewer of tnt-audio. He is in the process of reviewing both...He much prefers the 12L that he qualify of Giant killer...I don't know when the review is going to be available. Regarding the difference between the 11L and 12L, this is the answer from Quad: " The 12L have not got a lower frequency range (as you mentioned), but plays louder in the bass region. " Don't know what that means ...
