Owned Acoustat moniter 3's for 10 years.
Similarly, I ran the original three panel Acoustat X for a couple of years then updated them to the Monitor 4 with the pedestal. Ran 2+2s from 1982 to 2005 using different panels and interfaces. I replaced the burlap socks with a more open weave Spandex and rewired the interfaces.
Never cared for Sound labs.
The Sound Lab U-1s, however, are better in every respect. They eliminated the "head-in-a-vise" imaging challenge with their faceted panel structure. The tonal balance is more neutral and doesn't have the "credit card" signature that early reviews spoke of with the Acoustat. Resolution is decidedly higher since it uses toroidal transformers, thinner diaphragms and higher quality parts. And bass response plumbs a touch lower and cleaner.
To each his own I guess!
