Magnepan, Ohm, Spatial or ??

I've heard the mag 1.7s and like the "openness" and other attributes.  However, the size and placement requirements are a killer for me.   I'm thinking Ohm and Spatial would be somewhat similar.  However, I can't demo them.  Any thoughts on these compared to the mags and any other "open" speakers I should consider?

Thanks all as usual!!

Thanks for suggestion.  

I'd really like to try and Ohms and compare with Vandy but Ohms are 4-5 months out.  I guess I could buy them and wait until they are in and then order the Vandy's right before they arrive to compare.  BUT I HATE WAITING.  :-)

Yeah I know waiting is no fun.

Microwalsh do come up used on occasion if you keep an eye out.   They are small and easy to ship so there is maybe that.  1000s or older 100s are just a tad larger.

Just talked to Ohm again.  They say probably 2-3 months now. I may do what I mentioned above: order the Ohm and Vandy and compare in 2-3 months. 

Now to pick some reasonably priced speaker wire.  :-)
