Best match electrostats for Jadis JA-30

I would like to switch from B&W 801's S3 to a electrostats. It is also part of my theater but 2CH is the main objective. What would match the JA-30's that would out
perform the 801's? Do not want a big foot print speaker, the smaller the better. Height is not a problem. Thanks for your input.

I am aware of the Quads(I heard a used pair at a friends) and thought thier highs were faint, thier mids were amazing and bass I could live with. After all I have two Valodyne 12" subs to add as much bass as I need. What about a panel of ribbons, Aogee,Magnepan,Carver? Again thanks for the inputs, this is very helpful in narrowing my options.

Thanks for all the input from everyone. There had to be some compromise in dynamics that the 801's produced. I have decided on the Quad 63 USA Monitors with the Arcici stands. I will start the resistor & capacitor tweeks on them soon. My interconnects are Straight Wire Crecendo and my speaker wires are Sonora Desert Cable. I am satisfied with the interconnects, but I'm not sure if the speaker wires are the right match for the Quads. Has anyone experienced the right speaker cable for them? Thanks in advance.
