    Reviving an older post. I have been doing some research on speakers to use with my new receiver, and I need some help. My elite receiver is rated at 8 and 6 ohms, but the montages and fresco are five ohms. The claritys are 6ohm, but it looks like they require more power than my reciever has...

    I just got a new receiver. I bought a pioneer elite VSX-81TXV. I only have it hooked up to my two omnisat's, but it sounds good anyways. Now I just have to buy more speakers.

    I thought it was funny when I searched the forum and read about WAF (wife approval factor). It seemed really funny until I asked the fiance for her opinion on the speakers. We had just gotten to the martin logan webpage and she jumped out and said the clarity's were ugly. I had not even said...

    I talked with the misses and I have some sad news. She thinks the clarity is an ugly speaker. I think I will go with the montages or mosaics ( I found them on the magnolia website). I really liked the claritys because I thought they looked nice and probably sound better. I heard all of the def...

    I would have looked into online prices, but ML's website states that they have no online authorized dealers and there would be no warranty. I have been giving these speakers a lot of thought. Would I really see any advantage to using claritys for surround sound and gaming? I have noticed that...

    any idea when they are discontinuing the clarity speakers. I might be able to get the floor stands dirt cheap if the go out any time soon. Anybody have a date for them to be out and something new to replace them?

    Other Fresco Stands?

    Having seen the mounting bracket on the fresco, I believe it would be very easy to fabricate your own bracket to hold them onto you preferred universal stand. Find a stand you like, weld a bracket that matches up to the fresco bracket and bolts onto the universal stand. This sounds like a lot...

    In an effort to keep myself from going broke I have picked up a part time job at a local best buy. I get a pretty good discount, but I can't go all out just yet. I am about to finish grad school this semester, and I need to start saving for a house. I have to keep fighting off the temptation...

    I have to make sure I don't get the fiance mad, and I need to spread my disposable income across many hobbies. My two big ones are cars and home theater. The fiance wants another HDTV. I currently have a 42in plasma, but she wants a 46in aquos LCD. If I can convince her to wait on the LCD I...

    Not trying to step on any toes. I am 25, but I look about 19. My options are the montages and the clarity's. I didn't see anything on ML's website about mosaics. I need to buy these new, because I want the warranty. I love the look of the clarity's, but I am not sure I can justify the price. I...

    I have been doing some searching and would like some advice. I am in the process of building a home theater system, and I figured I would turn to you guys for help. I am new to audio equipment, so sometimes I get confused...so please bear with me. I would like to know if these speakers will...
