Try to tilt the Ascent by loosening the two rear spikes. Tilting will affect the mid a great deal. I have done it.

I was advised by a friend who tilts his Ethos about 2". I was not sure tilting can affect the sound until I did it last week. I tilt my Ascent by loosening the two rear spikes to their maximum length. The sound really improves a great deal: the mid becomes more lifelike; the micro details are...

I still cannot figure out how you measure the distance from the front wall to the panel of the speaker. Can you explain in detail? Thanks.

What kind of improvement do you obtain when upgrading from Ascent to Ascent i. I am an Ascent owner since 2000. Thank you.

I've owned ML Ascent since 2001. I'm very happy with it considering its price if I compare with those expensive cone speakers like Wilson Audio, Dyna Audio, B&W. I drive the Ascent with Goldmund Mimesis 29. The front end is Ayre CDP Cx-7e and Clear Audio Champion TT, and pre amp is YBA 2 D. I...
