Yes, they are good speakers. As in all speaker designs, electrostatic speakers have also improved a lot since 1987. Dynamics of the newer Magnepan's and Martin Logan speakers are better.
From what I read the newer Quad ESL-2812 and ESL-2912 have improved a lot compared to Quad ESL-63. Until I can afford newer electrostatics, these Acoustats do work well. Only dis-advantage is they are a difficult load being 83db at 1 watt, 1 meter. Yes, some of the guys at work also mentioned they are from 2001 ( A Space Odyssey ) due to being all black. Dan
