Press Review October 2003 / October 2007

It has been some time since HiFi World Magazine published its audio reviews of the One Thing Audio rebuilt Quad ESL 57 Electrostatic Loudspeakers—specifically, in October 2003 and again in October 2007. Therefore, we believe it is fitting to showcase these reviews on our webpage, as we continue the loudspeakers refurbishment under AQuadThingAudio. 


In fact, significant improvements have been made since those original reviews, including enhanced Bass Panel Performance, upgraded EHT Rectifier boards, and modern, high-quality audio transformer units. 


This makes for some interesting reading, especially as we approach October 2025, continuing our commitment to quality. 


Best, 

Andrew and Alan
