Speaker dilema? Maggies, Newforms, or Merlins

I have had Rogers LS3/5a's for 25 years with complimenting Rogers sub-woofer. I have a Lazarus hybrid amp, CJ preamp, Nakamichi CD Player 1, Van den Hul The First interconnects, and Audioquest cables.
I am looking to change speakers. I have always been mesmerized by the openess, air, detail and soundstage of planars and ribbons. However, I have loved my Rogers for years. I would appreciate feed back on the above mentioned speakers.

Thanks,

I recently heard a set of Newform R630's at a friend's house. As a Spendor owner, they sounded bloody poor to my ears. I was amazed how a ribbon speaker could sound so "boxy". Anyway, my friend seems to be happy with them which is all that counts.

Maggies on the other hand have always sounded remarkably open, natural and detailed.
