Picked up my Impression 11a's about a month ago.. Have to say I am very happy with them. In fact at this point, I am going to say that it is the best sound I have had in my room so far... And yes they can do rock!!

Timm, I have owned Manepan 1.6, 1.7, and 3.6's. I liked them a lot, however somtimes I had issues getting the center image as solid as I would like. The issue I had with them (besides the image) was that they were too physically imposing, i felt they got in the way of me enjoying them. (Just by...

Hello, thanks everyone for your input. I think I will take the plunge and get a pair of impressions. I understand that I can pick up a pair of Montis for around 5k ,but I found someone selling a pair of 11A's for 7k - are 11A's worth the extra 2k? Im looking forward to this cause I really always...

That may be true, but I'm not giving up �� Maybe this next purchase will be it! I'm slowing down with age - it's been a fun trip though, I've learned a lot along the way!

Perhaps I am overestimating the DB levels then. I have a pair of tonian labs tld1 speakers that use a 8" fostex driver and they go loud enough except for peaks, then they start to distort a little. If the logans could do better with deeper bass I would be good. I've been in this hobby quite...

I suppose 100db, 105db peaks. I will be running a music reference rm200 tube amp (going straight through a NAD dac that has volume). I also have 12 SET amp, and an musical fidelity int amp that has 150 watts. I spoke to Roger majeski from music reference and he said his amp would work well. I...

I've heard Logan's quite a few times and always loved their highly dense soundstage, highly resolving and emensly musical presentation. The Klipsch are musical and jump out at you with their dynamics. But I really find the Logan's very envolvng musically - and I only sit in the sweet spot when...

Thanks to everyone who replied Yes "Welcome to the machine", Pink Floyd, Led Zepellin, even Steely Dan.. I like to get the volume up now and then. What will happen if it's too loud, will it distort? (Break?) I love the sound of Logan's, just never pulled the trigger. Ironically I have a pair of...

Really thinking about purchasing one or the other (prefer to try 11A) but still saving up. I mostly listen to classic rock and the like and so at times like to crank it up - can they handle the volume? I'm not talking about concert levels but "relatively loud" - should I have concerns? Thanks Mike

I am considering purchasing one of these speakers I understand the impression recently came out around 6 months also and the Montis came out few years ago - my question is if you were to purchase one of these used (Montis at $5,500) or (imperession at $6,500) which would you choose and why? I...
