Well, they certainly are excellent but let's not go overboard. Don't get me wrong - I've been a planar fan ever since hearing a pair of Tympani I-Us back in '74. Not long after I purchased a pair of MG-IIs and eventually moved to Acoustat full range electrostats.

I heard a very nicely driven pair of MG 20.1s (Burmester 001, Joule Electra Rite of Passage, Valhalla), and found them superb. There is, however, some formidable competition when one speaks of the best. In the next room of the reviewer's house where I heard the 20.1s was an even more nicely driven pair of Alon Grand Exoticas. Talk about image size - the Alons make the walls disappear.

BTW, that reviewer now uses the 20.1s in an HT setup with 3.6s in the rear. With a new Barco projector, that is probably one sweet home theater arrangement.
