Electrostats react differently IMHO

24.31.114.250

I have a pair of Acoustat 2+2's which seem to prefer a different position than for more conventional dynamic speakers. My lenses are of the Weaver design recipe using Risch dimensions. Upon viewing a Magnepan user's arrangement where the lenses are placed directly behind the panels, I tried that approach in addition to the more prevalent side presence.

As my panels are rather directional, the position at the sides of the panels had little effect. I found that positioning them about two feet directly behind the panels is most effective at minimizing secondary indirect reflections. The speakers are about six feet out from the back wall.
