Magnepan and/or other ribbon/planar reviews

[Pyrrho]

I was looking at the various reviews of speakers at this site, and have not found any of full range (or even near full range) ribbon/planar/electrostatic speakers, and just a couple with ribbon/planar tweeters.

This got me wondering how speakers are selected for review, as I would like to see reviews of these types of speakers as well as more conventional speakers.

I am curious how my subjective preferences accord with measurements, and would like to know what measurable differences you would uncover with regard to these types of speakers.

Yeah I would love to write a review on a pair of Maggies as they are some of my favorite sounding speakers of all time.

I third the motion. I'd love to see some Martin Logan, Ohm Walsh, Quad, or Sound Labs reviewed.

further, it would be cool to have a shootout style article of the different polar response characteristics and how they pertain to psychoacoustics in fully treated and average rooms. CD Horns, shallow waveguides, planars, omni, dynamic dipole, MTMs, and gene's crazy things.

+ 1 for the Quad!
