Your favorite Electrostatic, Panel spkr


 I’m putting together an analog system. First on the list was a turntable, I’ve settled on the Denon DP 59L. 
  Now let’s hear from the owners of some panel electrostatic type speakers, not ones you dreamed of owning, ones that you’ve owned and the reason why they were your favorite.

I own Acoustat speakers that I put together myself. I owned a number of different Acoustat models over the years and they usually came with extra panels. I kept the extra panels as I sold off the speakers as my listening room situation changed over the years. After my house renovation I had about 16 Spectra panels so I decided to build a pair of speakers that had 8 panels per side, a Spectra 8800, which never existed as a product from Acoustat. Bottom line is it sounds great in my 14  x 18 room, no sub needed. 
Hi mijostyn thanks for the compliment. I should have mentioned that the speakers I built are using 8 Spectra panels per side, 4 below and 4 above. I am trying them right now with a pair of Contrabass subwoofers. Not sure if I like them as much with subwoofers. Here is a link about the speakers
