And then the salesman sat me down in the sweet spot and played a tune and I was hooked.
There's no recovering from this addiction. MY own humble home system sounded pretty bland after that, but ML's were above my budget in those days.

Some years later I discovered Roger Sanders' "DIY Electrostatic Loudspeaker Design Cookbook", and it was game-on! I spent the next 15 years building ESL's for myself and audio pals, and I finally have my dream speakers.

I'm new here and can't post yet, but I will post a build thread when I can.
