Hi Coinmaster,
Yes, you can increase the space between the stators to reduce the capacitance and then increase the p-p voltage.
The maximum p-p voltage at headphone stators is normally about 1300v p-p (460v RMS). In my very first panels I made, (from perforated steel) I originally used spacers of 1.5mm each side with an audio transformer energiser which went up to about 2200v p-p. And of course the large ESL speakers have bigger spacers and use much higher voltages.
