Be sure to send the responsible party a Christmas card! A genuine dream come true. Good for you! Can only imagine how delighted you must be. Yes, it isn't until you get electrostats home and experience them for yourself, that you truly realize just how weak your weakest link is. They can be VERY, VERY revealing.
Enjoy them.

Yes, I've been dreaming of this arrangement for some time. Even my wife is not put off by them! We're happy with out analogue (Garrard 401) and digital source at present (Lite Audio LT-1/DAC 83). Preamps are Audio Innovations L2 and P2 (for the Garrard). Amps will be Beam Echo DL7-35s.
Sadly, the donor, to whom I spoke for the first (and likely only time) last week, is in a local hospice. Apparently his friend and namesake had been charged with finding a good home for his Quads, and an overheard conversation at work, that I was having with someone else, identified me as that person. I had no idea.
We spoke about my musical education (violin, chorister, Royal Academy) and my love of vintage gear and its restoration.
I'll be making donations to some cancer charities on his behalf shortly.
