Solid State Amps for Quad ESL 57?

Geoff is SO right about the stock perforated metal screens on the 57---horrid things. Jerry Crosby (known for his QUAD 63 mod) at one time made a replacement for it, with much larger holes and much less resonance.

Thanks noromance......just a bit different way! :)

If no kids or pets, I really don't see a reason to have any kind of screen!
Before the rebuild, in original state, I tried the difference with and without screens and immediately I knew that the screens are out!

Another controversy is on this link:

In the end of the review it says that the FirstWatt F-7 sounded better than the ASR Emitter II amplifier!!

Like saburo said, ASR Emitter II amplifier is the amp of choice for 57’s and the best match of Chesky, Wyatt!
And when I wanted to replace my tube amps with two FirstWatt F7 amps (one amp for each side) and speaking with Marc from Reno HiFi, he said that the F7 can’t drive a pair of 57’s.
He recommend PASS XA-30.5, or 30,8 at list!

Just to clarify if I was misunderstood with my post from above!
The way I want to run my stacked 57's is with two stereo amps and each amp to run one side of the stack! Each amp needs to be bridged and use both amp outputs, for each speaker from the stack!
That is the reason for the Pass Labs would be a better choice!
Also my point was that I trust Mark from RENO HiFi more than the reviewer from that link above!
Mark knows his stuff and would never sale you what is not right product for you!
Only if you insist! :)

We've had a number of customers running stacked Quad 57s. They used our M-60 amplifiers, and the Quads were wired in series. David Magnan of Magnan Cable fame ran this combo for years prior to his retirement.
