Forgot to say. These speakers had probably been stored in a hot and humid place for a long time before shipping....

I remain a bit concerned by the claim that electrostats can be damaged by sending a signal
to them when they are not plugged in. It's not so hard for that to happen, a cleaning person or family member will sometimes unplug speakers and forget to plug them back in. When "played" that way, typically there is zero (or almost zero) output. Does it really do any damage?

  Running signal to the speaker without it turned on does not hurt anything. I have done it thousands of times with any number of stats. As long as the user realizes that they are not turned on and does not continue to turn up the volume to the point that it destroys the speaker then everything will be fine. That is the problem not that signal is running through the speaker and it is not plugged in.
