I have so many used classics that i do not want to let go and that's my humongous panel electrostat ACOUSTAT spectra 33 w/spl-1 subwoofer that only companies like SOUNDLAB make larger ones. In todays HT room/space restraints on most music lovers, large panels or large conventional designs are for those with abnormal homes or listening area. The others are the discontinued ohm walsh 4x0, 2x0, pro 200 and a defunct speaker attempt by srslabs called klayman signatures which actually are fine sounding panel speakers which was designed to have a sub in mind and amplification of minimal rms. Marketing and competition is what killed those projects like any other but I am impressed by it's capabilities for home theater. I have maggies too, but with the maggies or magnepans, You either love them or hate them because of placement, but for those of us who love our maggies, it's hard not to always move up to the higher models. I have other brands, but I would have no problem finding other designs to replace them. Of all the models I have it's a close call between OHM and MAGNEPAN to my taste. The problem especially of electrostats as great as they are is set up and maintenance where as other designs, you don't need to do the extra care.
