Acoustat panels are about 220 pF, or about 110 pF for each half of a segmented Spectra panel.

Thank you! What would that work out to for total capacitance as seen by an amp for a pair of 6600's?

Thanks again!

The amp I am intending to buy is good down to 1ohm and can handle .47 microfarads so I should be fine. Thanks for the assistance...

Bear in mind that the capacitance values stated are of the panel itself, as seen by the transformer secondary. The capacitance seen by the amplifier (feeding the transformer primaries) is not the same value. I don't know how to express that value for you.

Acoustat panels are about 220 pF, or about 110 pF for each half of a segmented Spectra panel.

Very cool, the Stax 009 headphone driver (diameter 80mm) has a capacitance of 100pF.
What is the area of the Acoustat driver?

 

[bolserst]

The total area covered by stator wires in the Acoustat panels is about 0.2m^2, and D/S about 2.2mm.
Details of the Spectra panel segmentation of wires can be found here: Post#1185

Hi I just recently found a tnt 200 when cleaning out a house and I'm planning on selling it. What is the best way to check that the unit works and how would I be able to do this.

If you decide to test and sell I have the perfect some with a couple of Acoustat speakers including a pr of Acoustat Spectra 6600 which would be right home with being driven by a friendly amp.
