Those are not mine

hence acknowledging Brian Walsh for the pic. It belongs to a user in the Chicagoland area. FWIW, you may see a listing and pic of my system by following my moniker. I do not have the separate subs.

I can tell you that the U-1s have a very large listening area as compared with other stats. Because they have seven flat facets spread across a 90 degree arc, one does not find the "head-in-a-vise" situation typically experienced with electrostats. I lived with that situation for nearly thirty years using various Acoustat models.

Regarding morricab's comment about a giant mono source, I doubt that is the case with these. The two larger inner units are the UB-1 subwoofers that operate solely below 50 hz or so. All of the imaging cues are determined by the outer full range U-1s.
