This came into my radar by chance, listened to them briefly about 20min. Really liked what I heard. Great size, fit and finish looked decent (didn’t get a closeup look).

The coherence of the whole performance, presentation was solid. I understand this is the first new model by the fink team.

Wanted to check if anyone had heard them and also share some thoughts.

Thanks!

    Haven’t listened to them. It’s weird that they reused the ES14 model number and called back to that famous speaker in their marketing when they didn’t make it look like the old speaker, or even like a “retro” speaker. And they used a crossover when the ES14s whole claim to fame was that the drivers, baffle, and cabinet were all carefully designed so the woofer rolled off naturally with no crossover at all and complimented the tweeter roll off which used only a single capacitor as a crossover.

    Not that any of that changes the new ES14n sounding good or not. Just a weird marketing choice with all passionate pedants in one of their key customer demographics
