Magnepans or...Martin Logan

OP, I have the Magnepan LRS and frankly it's bass is lacking without subwoofers.  I use two REL T5i at $599 each plus the $715 for the LRS still puts you under 2k.  Unless you have about 150 good clean watts a side to deliver to the LRS into 4 ohms I'd probably go a different direction.  No clue on ML sound.  The LRS are nice with my tube preamp and about 250 watts a side monoblocks.  The LRS may be tough to ship to Chile, and Magnepan is just lucky they weren't damaged more.  Their box while OK is something Fed Ex will put a hole in just about every time.  At least each speaker also is in a box and was OK.

I have owned both Maggies and MLs, Reality doesn’t match the hype or the reviews. Emerald Physics is open baffle, but with ample bass and much better integration of drivers AND they are easy loads to drive

+1 for Emerald Physics, BUT- ask them to pack more securely, than they do for domestic shipping. That’s after four decades of owning planars(Acoustat and Magnepan).

I was also thinking maybe open baffle would be a good compromise in size for shipping and efficiency for amp as well as getting much of the ESL sound. Special Audio and Pure Audio Project are two that are well reviewed and in your price range. Actually Pure Audio Project ships from over seas already they may be easier to deal with since they already ship world wide.
