acoustat X


Hi!
I am new to this forum. we inherited 2 Acoustat X model speakers. Do not know anything about them. We live in St. Louis. Is there a shop or collector who might be available for a consult?

Thanks!

That is a blast from the past! I use to have Acoustat in the mid 60s; at least one pre and an amp I built from a kit. They carried the Xs at Allied Radio, which I use to frequent. They had a built in amp if I remember. Should still be a good speaker but anticipate some expense in bringing them up to running condition unless you are very lucky. Remember that a powered full range electrostat costs north of $10,000 these days; often way north. Worth putting some money into if you can find someone who can do the work.
In response to Mr. tpreaves-

would like to find someone who could determine if they re operational and render an opinion of value.

Thanks!

Hello Ed,

Just found this post, and was wondering what you have done with the model X's?  I'm from STL and just moved when you posted this. I still have mine. ;)
