MiniStat
The MiniStat is a remarkable miniature high-end quality speaker.
The MiniStat is intended for use in music systems as well as small scale home theater systems. Two electrostatic panels are used to reproduce mid and high
frequencies with unsurpassed clarity and purity. Furthermore, a high performance bass driver is used along with slotted port technology. The performance of the MiniStat is
truly astonishing. Efficiency is high, requiring only a few watts to achieve concert level sound.
A unique acoustical lens is used in the MiniStat to disperse the mid and high frequencies over an angle that’s wider than the raw driver’s natural angle of dispersion. This lens works on the same refractive principle
as optical lenses. In both optical and acoustical applications a precision
lens is used to bend the rays of energy flow to a pre-determined angle. In the case of the MiniStat, the natural dispersion angle of the raw electrostatic panel is only 15 degrees at 20KHz. The acoustical lens increases this angle to 90 degrees.
The lens does not create any coloration or other anomalies in the sound. It is designed to provide properly balanced full spectrum sound over a horizontal angle of 90 degrees.
The result of this technology is that the entire listening room becomes the
"sweet spot".
