Electrostats

The above mentioned electrostats are very good. Electrostats are very unique and you will have lots of fun explaining them to most visitors to your home. i own a pair of Acoustat X self-powered electrostats and I like them very much.

I will be making some changes in the next year and I won't be buying speakers until I test some more electrostats.

I can testify that the Eros Mk 3 will play very loudly without strain, in fact for me they even tend to be rather easy on the ear. The bass is fantastic and so is the woofer to panel blend. The only real problem I have with them is if you aren't locked into the sweet spot they tend to sound just slightly dull, like if you are leaning back in the couch kinda slouching or even laying down, they will make you think they aren't so special. When you get right in the sweet spot then magic happens.

I got my pair in all silver, side rails and everything with the matching electronics. My wife too was not so keen on having a big system in the living room, but she really likes the looks of the Eros in Silver and most people who visit comment favorably on their appearance.

I have to assume that Roger Sanders has come a LONG way on E-stat design. I am quite familiar with his work and even have his book about "homebrew E-stat's", which is probably quite a bit out-dated. The fact that he is the one given credit for "inventing" the curved panel design and then threw all of that time and effort away for the flat panel design that he is currently marketing tells me that he is a pretty open minded individual. Most folks that would have had that much time and effort ( not to mention ego ) into such a thing would have a hard time laying that down and admitting that there are better methods out there. I'll have to check into these and see what i can find. Sean
