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!!

Does she like them almost half of the way into the room where they sound best or close to the wall where out of the way?

Martin Logan makes several large panel electrostatics which provide really excellent  sound.  Some Best Buys have them on display.

Out of the way, of course.....

That's why I ruled them out.

Get a pair of used Ohm's.  Save the cash, and Ohm's support is damn good.

That is, if you can find a pair to your liking.

I wouldn't mess around with the Maggies if you listen to any rock.  They do what they do quite well.   But that is just me.
