Suggestions? Planar like Dynamic speaker under 2K

The Zu Audio Omen might fill the bill for you. No crossover, so they are incredibly fast, revealing and involving...with fantastic timing and coherence. Full-range speakers that need barely any power to shine, love tubes, and if you can find some used Zu Omen Defs...even better!

Just a thought.

Chadnliz: Though my suggestion was not a joke, I am happy it provided a laugh for you! The dispersion characteristics of the Veritas dome midrange provide for excellent imaging and a broader soundstage than most comparable dynamic speakers I've heard. They do not lack for dynamic HT range, either.

Duke Lejeune of Audiokinesis is working on one to add to his well regarded more expensive offerings. His designs are dynamic and easy to drive. He's a gentleman who won't plug his own line...but I can. You might email Duke before buying anything else, to get more info and see how close he is to releasing his sub-$2000 design publicly.

Just having some fun but seriously VMPS is a way to go!

Not meaning to offend, but I couldn't disagree more with you Chandnliz! As a long standing 'stat & planar owner/fanatic - I currently have models from Quad,Acoustat,Sound Lab,Crown(RTR),KLH(Janzen)& Martin Logan , I find the sound qualities of Vendersteens to draw me more than most other dynamic speakers. Of multiple driver dynamic designs I've heard, only my KEF 107/2s sound more coherent to me. I think the care that is put into the cross-over, and the time alignment of the drivers has a lot more to do with the similarity of sound, than whether or not the speaker happens to use a planar driver. I'm particularly drawn towards the most coherent sounding designs, I am also a fan of Ohm Walsh speakers, I suspect for the same reasons.
