In the meantime, you can play around with Airwindows free plug-in Nikola "an attempt to do the sound of an audio Tesla Coil."
I just thought I'd point out that just as a guitar amp doesn't have a PCM chip, so too does a tesla coil lack a PCM chip.
My bad, thanks for clearing that up. I could have sworn that I read somewhere that that was how they pushed sound through a Tesla coil, but I am probably remembering incorrectly. ^^;

Plasma speakers + chip music seems like a perfect match. I am very intrigued.

But that's a Mac plugin, isn't it...

Yes, it is.....
Saw some guy playing guitar through two Tesla Coils at Maker Faire yesterday. Awesome!
