Sonus Faber Olymipca 3 vs Martin Logan Expression ESL 13A

hello !

i have recently moved my speakers( sonus faber olympica 3) to an open
floor living room and they started to sound terrible.Bright and harsh.
I have installed sound absorbing panels on side walls and corners but they
didn’t help much.
Lots of echo .They literally sound like i was in hallway. I previously
had them set up in smaller room with lower ceiling and loved how their
sound. They were a little on a warm side , extremely smooth and musical. non fatiguing at all. Definitely not bright.

I’ve heard that electrostatic speakers may sound better in large , open area but i don’t want to loose what i love about SF olympica 3 most.


Do you think i would be able to get similar "flavor" form dipole speakers ?

Did anyone compared these 2 speakers before?

i was thinking about to trade my SF for MartinLogan Expression ESL 13A.

Is it a good idea ?

he would probably let me do in home audition. but  at least i'd like to  know if go right direction.  speakers are heavy and require more people to handle / transport.
just not sure if its worth a try.

i don't have any experience with electrostatic speakers. I did hear them in the past but not in open space room like mine.
