Magnepan vs Ohm/Walsh ?


Just curious... those of you that have tried both magneplanar speakers and the Ohm with the Walsh-type driver -- which did you prefer and why?

I have a lot of experience with planar speakers, but almost none with the Ohm, so please send your impressions. If you switched from one to the other, are you happy, or what do you miss?

I have both and i play them at the same time which creates a live performance for me. In fact I play maggies, eminent tech and ohm's at the same time using SVS subs with many electronics to make them sound the way i want, nothing better than to have all these technologies. I could not seriously pick a maggie or ohm over the other, they are two beautiful designs including the eminent tech. That's like choosing between three gorgeous babes, a redhead, blonde and a brunette? I'd rather have all three, which I do, but I need to know which wig to put on my speakers. The MISTRESS behind the three current speaker system is my beloved ACOUSTAT SPECTRA which on occasion, gets the date over the three! To put the DECWARE over the OHM is insane to me, because the decware will blow where the OHM would begins to PLAY. OHM and MAGGIES are proven winners. Decware needs to stick to their TUBE electronics
