Sir you are sadly misinformed.
Acoustat panels are the most durable electrostatic panels ever built. Thousands are operating perfectly today 35 years later. Interfaces are simple and easy to repair. Very few owners are in distress (and I assure you that none of them think the value of their speakers is virtually nil LOL).
Quad and Martin Logan panels have a lifetime of about 15 years and then have to be replaced or rebuilt at considerable cost.
In its prime Acoustat was one of the largest producers of electrostatic speakers in the world. It was no more a "cottage industry company" than Quad and Martin Logan are today.
If you are not interested in Acoustat that is perfectly fine, but no reason to be rude and spread misinformation.
