Crown ES-224 (c. 1975)
Little is documented about the Crown ES-224. The record is thin. A single classified advertisement in Audio (September 1975, p.84) offered "2 New Crown ES-224 speakers. $1200 for the pair," with a contact at Crown International in Elkhart, Indiana. That suggests the ES-224 was a loudspeaker model, likely part of Crown's short-lived foray into home speaker systems during the early 1970s, when Crown introduced its Auralinear electrostatic line. No specifications, design details, or owner manuals have surfaced. The model number does not appear in Crown's known product catalogs or later collector references. The asking price of $1,200 per pair in 1975 (roughly $7,000 in 2025 dollars) indicates a premium product, presumably competing with other high-end speakers of the era. Its driver complement, cabinet construction, frequency response, and production run are all undocumented.
