    Neoliths in Socal for limited time.

    I wonder why? A search for "WAF" just on this site had 310 hits and this is Martin-Logan, an aesthetically pleasing proposition, that many spouses would / should not object to too much. Why would manufacturers not design units that enhance the living area rather than look like a spare part for...

    I would like to see your living room and meet the person who would prefer two polished nickel tombstones over the typical subdued black ones! Fabio, is that you? http://www.martinloganowners.com/forum/showthread.php?13814-Fabio-s-System-1995 OK, funny, but your closing question does not really...

    Neoliths in Socal for limited time.

    I have two pairs of CLS IIs. One pair is in good operating shape. The second one which I bought used, works fine but only after I built a plastic frame to hold the front and back stators firmly together, they were separating at the time of purchase. One day I will rebuild them because I cannot...

    I am intrigued by the vapor depositing of the conductive / resistive material. If it is indeed done properly, it may eliminate some hot spots for arcing and allow a slightly higher voltage to be used. Given the quasi-logarythmic nature of our hearing, that may not mean much of course. I just...

    I will. Would there be an entry for what inadequacy someone is compensating when he calls people he does not know "trolls?"

    OK, thanks to the last two respondents. I actually looked through the site and as well as Martin Logan's own site, especially the factory tour pages. But seeing the second picture under "panels" here: http://www.martinlogan.com/learn/tour-martinlogan.php They are still using double stick foam...

    Is that meant to be offensive or sarcastic? I would appreciate some sort of response that answers my query instesd.

    The panels on Neoliths resemble the original CLSs to a certain extent -- comparable size, looks... I suspect with a 30 year gap between them, there must be differences, are there? The CLSs always felt a bit cottage industry made: double stick foam, generally a non-robust construction for...

    As promised This is my first try running a (slightly) damaged CLS panel off an Acoustat Monitor 3 OTL tube amp. I guess just the fact that it worked on a first try is success. It actually sounds superb. Because of directionality of the panel, the sweet spot is right above it. I will erect it...

    Hi, I had just finished college when the CLS came out. As blown away as I was, I did not get a pair. First, I already had a pair of Acoustat 3Ms to lug to graduate school, then wherever work led me. But there was something else too. Over the years I figured out what it was: I would rather they...
