I've added a new pair of Magnepan MG .7 quasi ribbon speakers to my home theater...
With no break-in, they sound great, very possibly an alternative to the CLS's. At $1450 for a new pair, vs replacing the CLS panel's for +$3,300 (and still using the old electronics) a very real choice...if you want full range electrostatic speakers.
The MG .7 seem to be far less sensitive to room positioning. I first had them 2' behind the CLS's, figuring on breaking them in. They sounded so good (with the CLS's off) that I decided to forget waiting for break-in.
Driven by a classDaudio STS amp and Anthem AVM 30 pre.
The CLSs' are driven by an Anthem MCA 225 amp.
