Naturally, I am an electrostatic speaker fan and have been for thirty years. There are two considerations to my preference: I need exceptionally low inductance cables to prevent HF rolloff (that low impedance drop up top) and an amplifier that is happy with a reactive load where the speaker is throwing the signal back at it. Challenges to be sure.My cable and amplifier choices for that system, therefore, may not have the same relevance for systems with a different sort of load. With my vintage double Advents, for example, a SS Threshold amp seems to work better than the VTLs. I use double runs of generic 14 gauge wire instead of the ultra low inductance JPS Labs stuff.
