    Moscode 402Au anyone?

    Has anyone purchased or heard a Moscode 402Au with ML's? A local dealer has started stocking them so I'd to try it, but curious if anyone else has. I've read TonePub's review and noted his accolade in other posts here, plus Stereophile's review. Anyone else have personal experience? Would...

    Sequel II and HT questions

    Yes, I have the price of a nice car "invested" in my 2 channel system, and still no HT. :) I have a 15 year old RCA rear projection TV that won't die, a regular DVD player and a 15 year old VCR that still works as new. Can't complain about those purchases! Anyway, we're planning on finishing...

    Bryston SST Squared?

    Wondering if any ML Club members have purchased/heard/tried the new SST Squared series of amps. A local dealer is carrying ML again, and has always carried Bryston. Their demo system is a pair of Spires with the 28B SST2 monoblocks...yes 1000 wpc! I was expecting to be floored with this...

    Bel Canto eVo4: bi-wire or bridged?

    I sent my eVo4 to Bel Canto. They checked it out and all was normal. So my weird experiences after high volume overheating shut down were due to electrical gremlins. Hmmmm. In discussion with Matt from Bel Canto, I've splurged and had him upgrade it to Gen II factory specs. He did reiterate...

    More Nordost ramblings

    I just got my final Frey RCA and Brahma power cord, both for my phonostage. These are upgrades from a Shiva cord and Signal Cable Analogue 2 with Eichmann copper bullets. Replacing the Signal cable RCA with the Frey, I noted better top end air, better decay (using Jazz at the Pawnshop...

    All Nordost cabling

    Well, upgradeitis has finally been assuaged. I'm almost out of cabling to replace! Here's my current setup: Nordost Frey RCA's: CDP to preamp, preamp to power amp Signal Cable Analog 2 with Eichmann copper bullets: phono stage to preamp, tuner to preamp Nordost Frey 2M speaker cable...

    Why won't Bel Canto answer?

    I emailed Bel Canto on their "contact us" web page, waited a few days, then left a phone message with the person identified as their technical person, leaving my phone number and email address. I need to send my eVo4 to them for repair, but I need to know if there is a Canadian branch or not...

    My Summit has internal injuries, help.

    Sheesh. I was noticing a little hiss from the right speaker the last while, but chose to ignore it. I put on an LP of organ music, crank it up, and that speaker starts to vibrate physically like a cheap hotel bed, with loud muddy thumping. I turn down the volume, vibration goes away. The...

    Factory or aftermarket jumpers for Summits/Spires?

    I've been running bi-wired Signal Cable Ultra speaker cables with my Sequel II's and now Summits. But I've bought a pair of Nordost Frey speaker cables, single ended. So, I'm wondering what everyone with Summits or Spires has done about jumpers. The Summit owners manual specifically says...

    Summits, power amp/powered woofer interface

    I've been pondering amplification, and how this effects the sound related to the powered woofers. As a clear example, Bryston amps sound extremely lively, lots of bass slam, lots of midrange impact, but I do find them fatiguing rather quickly. The McIntosh MC275 all tube amp sounds very...

    Summit, Bel Canto, The Who: bad juju

    The house was empty, and I was casually listening to my system for a couple of hours. I inserted a Who compliation CD I'd had in my car and kind of forgot about for a long time. "Who Are You" comes on. Wicked grin appears. Preamp dial to 12 o'clock. Stat panels singing. Woofers visibly...

    Love my Nordost Frey

    I've been playing around with cabling and have found a synergistic mixture. I was running old AQ Midnights for the woofer and Tara Labs Quantum II for the stat panel on my Sequel II's, with Transparent RCA's. I upgraded it all to Signal Cable Ultra biwire and Analogue 2 RCA's. This gave a...

    I got my Summits!

    Yee-haw!! It's absolutely fantastic! I'm in ML heaven. I found a used pair of Summits on Audiogon, wenge/aluminum finish, perfect for our living room, with perfect WAF. A bit of import hassle and delays ensued, but eventually everything was settled, except for FedEx Ground shipping the boxes...

    Nordost vs Signal Cable

    I'm in a quandary. At the advice of the gent from whom I bought my Bel Canto eVo4, and asking questions of Frank from Signal Cable, I purchased Signal Cable Analogue Two interconnects with Eichmann copper bullet RCA's, plus bi-wired Signal Cable Ultra speaker cables. These were a noticeable...

    Curious Sequel II event...

    I was exchanging interconnects between my pre and power amps. I turned off the preamp, not the power amp. I unplugged the cable from the preamp, and heard a pop from the speakers, and a double click from my amp. Doh!:eek: I shut off my Furman, and proceeded to install the new interconnect...

    Sequel II's, should I replace the panels?

    My Sequel II cabinets are in need of refinishing, which led me to ponder panel upgrades. My speakers were in storage for about 5 years, so have had much less than usual use for their age. To me, they still sound very good, no high frequency roll off, smooth liquid midrange (as ML's should be...

    Sequel II bass

    I would like to upgrade my 2 channel system, and am weighing my options. I love the mids and highs of my system, but the Sequel II's could use some more bass punch in my 18x20 room with high ceiling. So, a couple of questions: 1. Any suggestions on amps that would improve bass? I've been...

    New Canuck

    Greetings. I've owned my Sequel II's for 14 years, and am on the 2 channel upgrade path. I've already learned lots of great information from this site. I love Martin Logans! Great forum!
