    Prodigy advice needed please?

    In NZ the Voltage is... 240V 50Hz. I am going to take a trip to listen to those Prodigys then maybe we can work on a deal if I am impressed by them. I would suspect importing a set from the US would be cost prohibitive. I am disapointed with ML USA as I emailed them asking for advice on where I...

    Prodigy advice needed please?

    Thanks everyone! I think I will take a listen to the prodigys and negotiate from there? I really like my old Sequel II's. They are like an old friend to me now and they actually still sound great compared to many modern speaker alternatives I have listened to in recent years. I run Sunfire...

    Current vs. Voltage-Source on Sunfire?

    Sunfire 600x2 Hi, For years I have powered my ML's with the mighty Sunfire 600x2. I experimented initially with the voltage / current outputs and to my ear the best combination is current to the high speaker input (panel) and voltage to the lo speaker input (bass). After all these years I...

    Advice needed please?

    I am considering adding a power conditioner to my two channel system for a couple of reasons. 1. to maybe clean up any 'dirty power' in the rural part of New Zealand I live in and 2. I want to protect my system from possible surges and power 'brown outs' etc that sometimes occur around here. So...

    That is my question. I run a Sunfire 600x2 into my Sequell II's and I only use the system in the weekends. Normally power up the Amps and speakers on Friday night and power down on Sunday night. For long time component reliability, is the ok? or should I be leaving everything powered up...

    cleaning my Sequell II enclosures?

    Hey Guy's, There seems to be plenty of talk on how best to clean your ML Panels but what is the best way to clean and protect the speaker enclosures? It seems to be a black and rather soft coating and I do not want to damage it. Any idea's. Thanks in advance, Ford427.
