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!!

I’m ready to try/buy a pair of Vandersteen 2Ce Sig. III.
Only place I can find them is MusicDirect and the only color is mahogany. Go for it?

Or get the Signature II? Don't know anything about the upgrades to the III.

Color preference? Can't tell much from my monitor. 
soundchasr, good listening with the Vandys'.

Hope they fullfill your desires...*S*👍

I may be in the minority here but I strongly prefered the Vandy 1ci over the 2ce in two rooms in my house that are similar in size as yours. I made the mistake of thinking bigger is bettter. I suspect if you go with the 2's, the bass will quickly overload your room.

I also agree with the recommendation to take a road trip. If you come to NJ you can demo both the Vandy's at Audio Connection in Verona, NJ and the Ohms in Brooklyn, NY. 

You will learn a lot in the process and be in a much better postion to gauge what you want. 

Good luck!
I was wondering about the room size (19x13x8) and 2ce.

Right now, with the Onix RS750s, I don't have much bass at all in this room.  Was thinking the 2Ce would fix that.....
