It's interesting to find your view of the ESL988 and SCM12. I am quite happy with my SCM12 and Sugden A21 amp. I had a pair of ESL57 a few years ago. I really liked them, but they were just too wide for my tiny listening room, so I had to sell them. Perhaps one day when I have my own house, I will try a pair of Quad ESL again. Enjoy your ATC.
