Q: Are these speakers electrostatic
A: Thank you for your question, and we hope all is well. Yes, this model is an electrostatic speaker using advanced MicroPerf stator technology, which allows for almost twice the exposed electrostatic diaphragm surface as a traditional electrostatic panel of the same size. The Classic ESL 9 is also part of our Masterpiece series using our new ultra-rigid AirFrame Blade design, which enhances imaging, low-level sonic detail, accuracy, and speaker efficiency. We hope this helps and thank you for your interest in our products.
