Are planar speakers the best option to obtain an holographic, 3D image sound??

In a word, yes.

I have Magneplanar Tympani IVa speakers which never cease to amaze me. It is as though the sound materializes out of thin air rather than emanating from a physical source.

While I do not share your preference for valves, if you find the right combination I am sure the results will be wonderful.

Although Maggies (Magneplanar speakers) perform well with lower powered amps they come into their own with amps able to supply abundant current.

Your desire of 'holographic' sound would be certainly accomplished with 20.7s.

If you would consider solid state amplification, Pass Labs amps and preamps are a superb choice. A valve preamp and a Pass Labs amp may achieve the sound you like.
