Has anyone tried ML with Pathos Inpol2 or Twin Towers, especially Vista, Vantage, Spire or Summit? Inquiring minds are eager to know... especially since both the Inpol2 and the Twin Towers output about 60-70 W into 4 ohms, and the MLs have those difficult loads at 8 kHz and higher. Personally...

This past week I got myself a ReadyNAS device. I am quite happy with it, the amount of storage and admin interface make it extremely convenient and a no-brainer. However, I find some differences in the sound quality of my files if I serve them through the NAS's own SlimServer or through the one...

The short: Amazing speaker, very easy to drive, bettered even the top Maggies. The long: Tried 3 amp configurations - 1. Pass Labs X350.5 on the bass panels (both channels), Pass Labs XA60 monoblocks on the ribbons (one per channel) 2. Pass Labs XA60 monoblocks running fullrange 3. DeHavilland...

This is no longer my system. I have sold the Vantages and replaced them with a pair of Analysis Audio Amphitryons. An image of the new system (and room) can be found further down this thread, here. The old images of the system are kept for historical purposes and to maintain the integrity of...

This weekend I finally auditioned a pair of VTL MB-450 monoblocks. Source was an Esoteric X-03SE, pre was VTL 6.5, speakers the Magico v3. Cables were Nordost all around, Tyr for interconnects, Frey for the speakers. It was a very good session; the sound was extremely airy, bass was controlled...

Portuguese audio and hi-fi journalist Jose Vitor Henriques wrote about and published some photos from the Munich High End 2007 Show here. A translation of the relevant parts follows. Enjoy! Martin Logan As soon as I arrived at the MOC, I quickly ran upstairs to see/hear the CLX. More than a...

What are your experiences in how MLs react to humidity and temperature swings? I noticed that the sound is a tad less luscious if the weather is quite dry. Have you found similar results? To be perfectly honest, my previous thread on the Logans being too laidback was elicited by last week's...

With all the recent talk about adding subs to systems in order to achieve better bass control and tightness, how far did you go playing around with the Hz Level Controls on the back of your speakers? As for myself, I listened to mine in the 0 dB position for a long time and a few months ago...

Hi, It's been a year now since I got my Vantages and I spent this whole time with mixed feelings about the laidback sound they produce. I am always amazed when I read about other forum members saying that they get instruments somewhere in the space between where they sit and the speakers. In my...

As usual, I left my system playing relatively loud when I went out this past Sunday, to continue the break-in process of my Vantages (got them some 3 months ago). I made different CDs with sounds in various regions of the spectrum to exercise either the woofer, the panel or both. My last CD has...

Hi all, Just to say hello to everyone here. I bought a pair of Vantages about a month and a half ago, finally fulfilling a lifelong dream of owning a pair of electrostatic speakers after a revelatory audition some 12 years ago of a pair of Monoliths. And the best part of it all is that making...
