    Montis speaker placement and power

    Hi there, I've got a pair of Montis that I love. I just got some bookshelves that I've placed behind my speakers as per the photo. Will that negatively impact sound? Also I have an Equitech son of Q line conditioner. It has filtered, unfiltered and GCFI plugs. Which ones should I plug my...

    Subjective vs. Objective

    oh dear - still skirting the question with piecemeal answers, sarcasm and tidbits of technical prowess we can all google. come on and answer your own questions and prove you know what you're professing. I wasn't the one quoting satellite links and the internet in his statements.

    Subjective vs. Objective

    Well mate from your statements I'm having a hard time believing that have a telecommunications background yet you make quite the emphatic statements comparing point to point links versus data networking. Its like a LAN administrator saying they know all about wide area networking technology. I...

    Happy to as one of my friends started and owns the company! Small world. Contact Rob Ronulfson directly or if you send me your contact info I'll get him to contact you. They'd be glad to show you the factory and a custom listening session. I wish I could afford them but not in my budget even...

    El34 - kt88 - 845

    Thanks Spike. My Mastersound needs repair from a blown tube that caused a resistor to melt. Its not expensive but I am liking the Mystere. I have never heard the Mastersound with electro stats though.

    I fundamentally disagree with your statement from an engineering perspective. I will not sleep tonight because of it. Nope. You're making quite the absolute statements that would involve a much deeper network topology discussion to debate as well as a very clear understanding of the...

    El34 - kt88 - 845

    Wondering if anyone has any listening experience between EL34/KT88 and 845 tube based amps and what sounded best with a ML Ethos? I'm using a Mystere IA21 with EL34PH tubes right now and it sounds great. My older Mastersound Compact 845 is under repair so haven't yet heard it with my ML Ethos...

    Subjective vs. Objective

    My original post was an attempt to lighten up this forum. Meant no disrespect. Sorry mate. I do have a telecom background but not going to get into a comparison of a USB cable to the Internet. Not the point I think you were trying to make either. Enjoy the music.

    Well at least you didn't take my comment too seriously because I wouldn't :0 I love your comment on bank accounts. My has suffered linear losses from the first time I got into audio! I won't comment on the Internet and its latency, checksum or no checksum. If you do have a telecom background...

    Hi everyone It might seem all USB cables are made the same yet thats not the case. The amorphous dilectric effect creates linear losses throughout the digital domain. These can only be contained. C

    Montis: I like them, but will they beat the Dynaudio C2 or even the C1?

    Hi there, I have the Ethos and am wondering what is best for vibration attenuation? i find that on deep bass notes my hardwood floors vibrate. How can I eliminate this? Granite underneath Ethos on spikes? Auralex? Thanks Carlos

    Spikes and hardwood flooring ?

    Hi there, What will work better to reduce floor vibration and boominess under the Ethos - granite or Auralex? I'm in Canada and not sure where I can get auralex.

    Tubes and Amplifier for ML Ethos

    Hi there, I am a recovering "box speaker" aholic. 3 days ago I purchased my first ever electrostatic speakers - the ML Ethos. They are still getting burned in yet I am blown away at how exceptional they are in the mid-higher frequencies especially. I have a few questions I am hoping folks here...
