Nola Contender and Martin Logan Electro-MotionESL

At CES in January, 2011, I read that the Nola Contneder and the Martin Logan Electro-Motion ESL speakers were the new buzz in the under $5000 category.

Has anyone heard either or both?? I think display pairs are in most franchise audio shops. If you have heard one or other, let us know how they sound, and whether they perform beyond their price tag. I do not have access to audition either

There is a lot of competition in that $2000-5000 range. I read that the new Martin Logan speaker might be their best "budget" speaker offering since the Aerius I model
