The ESS Heil air-motion transformer midrange-tweeter, by virtue of its "instant
acceleration" , is the most significant loudspeaker design
breakthrough of the past half-century.
The Heil achieves this "lever aged" acceleration by squeezing air instead of pushing it. To illustrate the superiority of the squeezing motion, try to "shot put" or push a light object like a cherry pit with the palm of your hand. It won't travel very far or fast. Now put the cherry pit be tween your thumb and forefinger and squeeze.
The cherry pit squirts out at high velocity. The Heil secret: superior leverage.
All speakers are transducers that convert electrical energy into acoustic energy.
But only the Heil is also a trans former that increases the energy output 530 percent. It is this in crease in velocity that gives the Heil its great clarity, superb dynamic range, crisp transients -- in short, its audible superiority.
ESS is committed not only to state-of-the-art Heil technology, but to a vision of a loudspeaker as "living furniture". This palpable "feel of excellence" in forms every ESS speaker system.
We make ten speaker systems, and one is right for you. Next time, ask the question that counts:
