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,

I will second the Mirage suggestion. I've owned almost every speaker in their lineup, and currently have the OMD-28s. They are truly amazing speakers, and I only have them about 18" off the back wall. More room would be better, however, they still sound absolutely stunning. I'm pushing them with the flagship receiver from Pioneer...which has been plenty of power.

For smaller room, the OMD-15s are great as they don't have the bass to overwhelm. Good luck!
