Doing a quick search on the ML Script loudspeakers I find a few happy owners that purchased them used for $1100/pr. Comparing ML's to Aperion speakers is the classic apples and oranges comparision. Since your friend has them maybe he'll let you listen to them in your set up.
I'm a fan of electrostatic speakers as an owner of a pair of Acoustat Spectra 1100 floorstanding speakers. They don't appeal to everyone, but I like mine. Most electrostatics require a substantial (beefy) power amp that can handle low impedence loads. If you are running a mid-fi receiver it may not be up to the job.
