ESS speakers "Translinear" Transstatic

These were speakers designed by California based company called ESS, that is, Electro Static Sound before they used the Heil Air Montion transformer. These models were current in 1970-1975. I am curious if any one still owns either of the above models, or has seem them listed on any of them listed in the used audio web sites. They were incredible speakers for their time,and sounded as good as many of so-called elctrostatics of today. They used good driver elements, for example, the KEF B-139 oval driver for the bass response.If anyone has knowledge of either of these above vintage speakers,please leave info on this Web page. Thank you!!

@mynameislarry its a 1.60 A circuit breaker on your TLS IIs.

Glad to see you guys are enjoying your revitalized amt creations.  I worked there early 1980s, and still fiddle with them a bit.  Running scratch designed AMTs right now with my larger mono tube amps and a recently upgraded full Class A 50w solid state amp this weekend. All new crossovers, with really good parts, and pairing with really good woofers can open up a whole new world of sound. Keep it going!
