Years ago a friend had a set of these and the old 50's tube amp with them. They sounded awesome!

@blood23 - the first time I saw a set of electrostatic speakers, we were visiting this friend of my parents in Europe, and he was like a concert violinist or something

anyway - he had this huge old brass-looking thing up against the wall, and it was like 4'x5' -- I totally mistook it for an electric heater.

everyone kind of laughed at me and then the guy put some kind of classical record on, and it totally blew me away - it sounded like there was live music happening right there in the room

I'm glad comments are in-line now so I don't miss tonyb's stories :)
