    Wire Gauge of power cord for Ethos

    Hi, I just picked up a pair of Ethos on ebay ($2,000 is a good price?) and I read a review somewhere that said their homemade ROMEX power cord sounded better than stock. Does anyone know what the wire gauge is for the stock cable? I wonder if the 14g wire from Pangea would be an upgrade...

    Dampening Electromotion with No Rez

    When I decided to upgrade my AV123 X-LS Encores with the upgrade kit and No Rez from GR Research, I decided to order a few more sheets of No Rez for the Electromotions. When I opened up the Electromotion I was pretty disappointed to see how cheaply it was designed. My Encores had 2 horizontal...

    Electromotion Plugged vs Open Port

    In case anyone wonder what their Electromotion would sound like if they plugged their port well wonder no longer. The plug I used is a 4" replacement plug from SVS (4" was too big but I made it work, the 3.5" probably would have been a better fit). I was hoping it would smooth out the 300hz...

    Anyone willing to try to stack rank every speaker ML has produced?

    I'm new to MartinLogan and the only speakers I've heard are my Electromotion and the Motion 10 (I bought for me dad). I know it's not an exact science but I was wondering if someone(s) who had a lot of experience listening to different ML speakers can try to put them in order of performance...

    MartinLogan EM-ESL vs AV123 X-LS Encores

    I bought pair of used X-LS Encores from CL for $80 for use as computer speakers. They sounded really awesome in my den so I decided to try them out in the living room and wow these guys sound amazing. They definitely benefited from the extra space. Compared to the EM-ESL, the ML's has a...

    Wrinkles in Diaphragm normal?

    Hi, I found some wrinkles on the diaphragm along the spars on my replacement ESL panels. I contacted ML and they said that is normal and won't affect sonics. Anyone noticed wrinkles in their panels?

    Anyone tried upgrading the crossover caps for the EM-ESL?

    Hi, I just wanted to see if anyone has tried upgrading the "low DF electrolytic capacitors" in the EM-ESL cross-overs. The mod looks like a low hanging fruit... Thanks, Trey

    ATMOS enable speakers are coming

    I am planning on upgrading my 5.1 to a 5.4.1 ATMOS system. My problem is that I have really low ceilings (7.5') so ceiling speakers would be too easy to localize at the distance. I emailed ML to see if they are planning on releasing any ATMOS enable speakers that will fire at the ceiling and...

    Electromotion ESL close to wall, diffuser or absorption?

    Hi, I have a pair of ESL and Stage which are about 2.5 feet from the back wall. I know this is within the minimum recommended distance from ML but I tried bring them 4 feet out and the speakers sounded a lot better. Unfortunately because of the layout of my room, 2.5 is as far and I can bring...

    ESL-EM sound only coming from top portion of electrostatic panel

    FX2 or Motion 12 for surround

    Hi, I'm new to the ML world. I just picked up a pair of used EM ESL over the weekend and trying to built a HT system around them. Is there any design advantage to use FX2 speakers vs motion 12's? The motion 12's are a little cheaper and I would assume have more bass. Thanks in advance!
