R&D Stories: Developing an Electrostatic Transducer
This article discusses how Warwick Audio Technologies designed a completely new type of transducer for high-end electrostatic headphones using the latest materials, validated with computer simulation tools from Comsol. The design process for the High-Precision Electrostatic Laminate (HPEL) transducer was first available in the outstanding Sonoma Model One, the world’s first headphones to use HPEL audio transducers, and all subsequent Warwick products, now expanding also to automotive applications.
