Magnepan, Ohm, Spatial or ??


I've heard the mag 1.7s and like the "openness" and other attributes.  However, the size and placement requirements are a killer for me.   I'm thinking Ohm and Spatial would be somewhat similar.  However, I can't demo them.  Any thoughts on these compared to the mags and any other "open" speakers I should consider?

Thanks all as usual!!

Ohms would work and you wouldn't need to wonder which side of the room your black absorption device decided to lay. 
With that room I would get Ohms and forget it. Measure the cubic feet and get the right speaker. If the bass is a little weak or to much  for your tastes there is a switch behind the binding cups you can adjust.
There is switch behind the binding post cup which is set to neutral. I guess if a little more bass is desired you can move it to + a little less - . If more bass is wanted then try a sub. 
I wouldn't worry about subs until I heard the speakers. I was wondering why the 1000's were suggested when your room measurements are 1976 cu ft which is above the top end rating on those?
