Piglet,
How about a pair of Martin Logan Aerius? If you want to avoid power cords you can find used Apogees on the 'net BUT ribbons sure need plenty of current to get 'em going. Think Classe, Krell, McCormack, Levinson kind of juice... I'd lean towards the ML's myself, they can be had for $1000 delivered. I have a pair in my home office, love'em. Be forewarned, once you get hooked on planars you won't have a box speaker left in any of your systems!
