Kaifupaddy, the reason why you heard "flat" sounding electrostats or ribbons is most likely due to poor setup. I've owned multiple planar speakers in the past and they're a pain to set up correctly compared to cone speakers. Most dealer and audio show room setups do not do planars justice, unfortunately. But planars have a particular sound (eg, lack of chest thumpin bass slam, less meat on the bones, and more diffuse sound, although there are exceptions) and if you don't like it, no amount of autioning will convince you OTW. Cone speakers that disappear the best are usually 2-way montors which approximate point source better than most floor standers which are usually 3-way. The smaller size of 2-ways also aids in the illusion too.
