cones vs electrostats


hi,ive listened to a pair of martin logan ReQuest and loved the way they sounded.ive always had cone speakers...im using Snell type C5 which sound great also.ive heard that room placement can make or break the sound..of course they sounded fabulous in the store.can anyone who has switched from cone type tell me if they were happy with the change.
thanks for the input

There are some very good FULL RANGE stats on the market and for below 30hz or so, you can still dial in a subwoofer. The drawback: if full range, they are large and expensive. But as far as coherence, transparency, soundstaging, the rendering of solo instruments and voices are concerned I find them very hard to beat.
