Several members have requested that I post my system which I have finally managed to do. Please pardon the shots that are out of focus. I am not the world's most gifted photographer or even close. I have done my best to explain things but I'm sure there will be at least a little confusion do please ask questions. Most of the requests have occurred here in analog so I posted it here. There is an analog component but it is rather plain Jane in comparison to the rest of the system.

Roger Modjeski designed a replacement for the Acoustat Medallion interface (which he characterized as having "serious problems" ;-) . He also offered a direct-drive OTL amp for Acoustats, as well as QUADS (the 57 for sure, the 63 I don't know).

The Hartley woofer was actually a 24" driver. Matching subs with the ESL was for years unsatisfactory to most QUAD owners, but that was before the GR Reaearch/Rythmik OB/Dipole was introduced.

I made my own stands for stacking pairs of QUADS: three layers of 3/4" MDF glued together! Like @noromance, I prefer singles, also naked. Great on small ensemble music (Baroque, acoustic Blues, Bluegrass, Folk, Singer-Songwriter, etc.) and of course vocals, but with very-limited maximum SPL capability (subs help increase that). I have a pair of the QUAD front grilles made by Jerry Crosby, but no grill is even better. Ugly as hell, but oh well.
