Fell in love with them at a Chicago CES back in the middle 1980s. Rest of the system as I remember was Kiseki, Pink Triangle, and Rowland. I have a picture or two of them here somewhere along with the info sheet they handed out.The sound was sublime, to my ears one of the best of the show even against the original IRS and WAMM's. It was one of the few setups that brought tears of emotion to my eyes at that show.
I went home and started saving my coins... and never heard much about them afterwards.
The info in the linked USAudioMart ad provides much I'd never seen before. I remember reading they were limited in production, sales, and had some reliability issues. BUT if I had seen the info in the USAudioMart ad and on AudioCircuit back in the 90s or early 2000s, I'd had started hunting them down.
One of the more beautiful electrostats I'd ever seen and nicest I'd ever heard.
