Best real world radial / omidirectional speaker

While I'm in awe of people who spend $20,000 or $100,000+ on speakers and can afford to design their homes to suit, my budget for speakers is around $2,000 and positioning can be affected by my wife. E.g. having the speakers 3-5 feet out from the wall is a problem, which may rule out speakers with a back firing speaker. That being said, I'm looking for feedback on the best omnidirectional or radial speaker. Ones I'm considering include the Decware Radial, Ohm, or Shahinian. Suggestions? BTW, my tastes in music, run towards folk, blues, old school rock and roll, and jazz with only an occasional classical piece. thanks, Cdc2  (System | Threads | Answers | This Thread) 04-01-12

I'm amazed at what it can do for home theater and audio only with their patented ribbons. I own all sorts of speakers and my favorite is my ESSHEILS and I have more ohm's then anything else. I even own magnepans and acoustats and eminent tech. The SLS pound per pound is the most capable. My ESS heil's are the best because I modified it to my liking with three ESS HEIL drivers. Ohm is the best for placement and all around purpose use.
