Which speaker has the biggest sound stage?

I tried out a Magnepan 1.7 a couple months ago, and I am a bit shock by the sound stage of it. It just feel live music. Although the bass is a bit lacking, I really like the "be there" feeling.

So, my question is, does all planar speaker (electrostatic, ribbon ... ) have such big sound stage? And with different brands and models, which one has biggest sound stage?

Specifically for Magnepan, the 3.6 is about $1000 more than 1.6. What are the major differences? and is it worth the extra money?

Well, My Apogee speakers are on a 25' wide wall.....and they fill in between (the image), and the outside area with sound that is as wide as the room.

Funny......if you walk up to one of the speakers while it is playing, you really can't localize the sound. (nothing like box speakers).
