I was thinking about updating my system in the near future. However, many of the brands that I am considering (more conventional dynamic cone based speakers) - either have centers that are underwhelming or seem to be significantly overpriced. Many brands seem to treat the center as an...
Is placement more difficult for the Stage?
I will be placing the center channel speaker on a shelf in a Salamader Triple Synergy rack. It will not be on the top shelf, but inside the top riser. Therefore, there will be a shelf above and below the unit. I also will not be able to use the...
I am planning on adding a center to a pair of Montis speakers and was hoping to get opinions on the best center channel match.
My dealer does not have either available for demo otherwise I would audition each speaker and make my decision. Initially I was leaning to the Stage since it is the...
The dealer came through with a great deal on the Montis - even better than I expected so I am going to return the Spires and take the Montis. In the end, I am happy with the result.
I don't really know for sure what the dealer knew. I'm just going based on their insistence that they were unaware and their unhappiness. They also offered to give me the number of their local rep. Although, I am not sure what that will accomplish as regardless of what each party knew, I am...
I appreciate all of the responses. I hear what some people are saying regarding a refund. This may pose a few problems for me - namely they are the only local dealer for the Reserve ESL. Also, I got a great financing deal on the purchase. In the end, if I can get a great deal on the Montis -...
I opened the speakers today. Very easy to tell if they are B-stock as ML places a non-removable sticker on the back of the speaker stating it is B-stock.
I listened to the Spires today and love them. For A-stock, I though I got a decent deal (30% off) and got the color I wanted. However, I...
I called Martin Logan this morning and they stated that I needed to go through the dealer first. If I don't get satisfaction from the dealer they said to call back and the ML account manager would get involved.
I called the dealer and they are supposed to call back later today with more...
I'll try to make a long story short. I went to demo the new Ethos speakers and was impressed. I was set to buy, but the dealer represented that he could get brand new Spires for the same price. He called me the next day and his rep located a pair of Spires, but the color was Light Cherry...
