A UNIQUE FULFILLMENT 0F MUSICAL ACCURACY

THE MODEL EIGHT- THE MODEL SIX

Acoustat Corporation. pioneers
in electrostatic technology.
announces a new dimension in
full~range single-element
loudspeaker systems -the
Model Six and Model Eight.

They are the result of over 20
years of research and develop-
ment with the assumption
that an electrostatic speaker
could be built without compro-
mise to accurate fidelityzwhich
could produce a convincing
recreation of the original
musical performance.

Now there is a speaker system
available that is capable of repro-
ducing the most demanding
material.withalevel of perform-
ance heretofore unavailable

to the serious music listener.
