most articulate speaker


by design, would the most articulate type of speaker for massed strings and choral music be an electrostatic? I listen more and more to this type of music and am wondering if electrostatics are the way to go.

I think Quads are definitely a must audition for what you are looking for. If you prefer box speakers, I would consider the Merlin VSMs - about as close as you get to the speed and transparency of electrostatics, with more dynamic capabilities. A pair of VSMs with Atma-sphere M60 amps is a classic combination - very well sorted out pieces of gear.
Duke, that is why you, along with Ralph Karsten are among the most valued manufacturer voices on Audiogon.
