I am an electrostatic owner who has listened carefully to both Quads, MLs as well as others.
Of the two I liked the Quads best but let me suggest some alternatives.
How about the Sanders?
They are hybrids like the MLs so you should get plenty of bass if that is important.
I had a two or three hour demonstration of the Sanders and was massively impressed, by the way I did not notice the narrow sweet spot complaint that some people make about them.
I had correspondence with Roger Sanders and he is great to deal with.
How about another alternative?
What about the JansZen zA2.1?
This also is a hybrid like the MLs and the Sanders.
David Janszen is an absolute pleasure to deal with, they have some sort of arrangement whereby you can listen to them in your own home with no obligation to buy.
Great range of finish options are also available.
Can I also suggest something else that you may like.
SoundLab have two new 'shorter', speakers, they are both about 56 inches high.
They are full range like the Quads.
There is, the Ultimate U-4iA (fantastic recent review on Dagogo) and the Majestic 545.
Roger West is also great to deal with.
You know, I think that you are spoilt for choice!!
Whatever you do don't rush in.
Look at the websites, read the reviews, have a listen, then go for it!
