Best Electrostatic loudspeaker?

Many of us have found that nothing make the magic happen like a pair of Electrostatics. It's been an evolutionary road for me, starting with various dynamic systems, then ribbon/dynamic hybrids, then full range planar magnetics (Maggies), then Electrostatics. So those of you with experience in Electrostatics, which do you think is (are) the best designed and executed example(s) of the breed?

In a few weeks the backplates on the Sound Lab U-1PXs here will be upgraded to the new Consummate version which will be introduced at THE Show in Las Vegas. These will be the first pair until they become available in January. Pricing has not been set, but I will know soon.

The purpose of the new backplate design is to make the speakers a lot easier to drive by both tube and solid state amplifiers.

Geoff, current prices on the full range models range from the M-3PX at $13,270/pair to the U-1PX at $40,270. The popular M-1PX is a bit over $25k.
