All a matter of degree and perspective. There are some that will tell you the ESL(57) is the best Quad ever made.Sensibly compared to the 2912? Absolutely they can be they can be sensibly compared to just about any speaker one can name. They have their limits for sure but what they do well they do as well as they ever have and better than just about any other speaker ever built since including the 63 design. The reason why some still consider them the best speaker ever built.
In terms of bass the ESL(57) working properly has lots of bass down to about 40Hz. If they don't have bottom end then they are not working properly most likely tired and well past their prime.
Even with the additional bass panels and bass output of the 989/2905/2912 there are some that complain the speakers don't have enough bottom end and insist on subs.
Personally I prefer the 63 design but every time I go back to the original I think to myself no this is a much better speaker. This has been discussed since 1981. Which Quad is better the new Quad or the old Quad? I imagine will be having the same discussion 20 years from now.
