When I diconnect them from mains, it takes at least 5 minutes before I can notice a decrease in volume. After 10 minutes they are still playing, but at lower volume. Is this normal, you think?
It's not excellent but for sure not bad either, especially considering the high humidity we currently have here. I would not worry about that.
My Audiostatic panels (that I recently rebuilt using ErAudio coating) will continu to play for a few hours in dry wetter. Don't know how they perform in this wetter. It helps a lot not to apply coating on membrame areas that are glued to the frame.

I find it hard to locate the spots of discharge. You can darken the room and try to see little glowing spots. If you breath on these spots they might light up. I once had audiostatics damaged by a fire, probably blown up resistors. There were level differences as well. I never expected the pvc insulation being faulty but strange things can happen at previous owners. I threw the panels away and got some spare panels instead. If the ESLs of Peter play at least 5 minutes after disconnected from mains my guess is they are OK. Audiostatics are open designs and dust will always come in between. Might do some vacuum cleaning with soft brush at both sides. If you cant hear ticks at your listening position just enjoy them.
Would be interesting to know how the statclear will perform in the long run. Keep us posted and for now, happy listening!
