Electrostatic speakers are a type of loudspeaker that use electrostatic principles to produce sound. They consist of a thin, electrically charged diaphragm placed between two conductive panels. When an audio signal is applied, the diaphragm moves in response to the varying electric fields, creating sound waves. These speakers are known for their clarity and detail, making them popular among audiophiles. Unlike traditional dynamic speakers, which use magnets and coils, electrostatic speakers offer a more uniform sound dispersion. However, they often require specialized amplifiers and can be more expensive than conventional speakers, such as dynamic speakers.
