    Cables: How Important is Equal Length?

    Some of you have recommended I change the location of my speakers to maximize the performance of my equipment by placing the speakers on the sort wall of a rectangular room. However, that's the wall where I have a pellet stove insert installed, which would necessitate placing my rack with the...

    Spacing Between Speakers

    When you guys refer to 'distance between speakers', does that refer to an edge-to-edge distance (between the rails), or a center-to-center distance between the panels?

    Opinion - CLSII vs ReQuest 2nd Gen

    Howdy, folks. I'm the owner of an excellent set of ReQuests (system 517, 2nd gen, with the newer binding posts) but came across a set of CLS II's. I was hoping to get some feedback from you guys on whether you thought it might be worth 'flipping' out of the ReQuests in favor of the CLS, or if...

    "Thup" when turning on amp

    Not sure if this is normal, but I notice a 'thup' (soft pop) when turning on my amp. The order in which I power up is: Preamp, then amp, power down is amp first, wait 10 seconds, then preamp. It's been there for a while, just never thought to ask. Should I be worried?

    Recommend tagging software?

    My entire collection is ripped as FLAC to my NAS, but sometimes EAC didn't properly identify album art or tracks so I don't have the correct imagery or data. Can you guys recommend something that will enable me to 'scrub' and correct the files? I already tried MediaMonkey, but it only looks to...

    reQuest Panel Position

    Does this look right to you guys? Seems the panels are about 3/4" below the top edge of the frame, and the grill on the bottom is shifted an equal amount downward. It might explain why I'm getting that 'buzz' at certain frequencies if something is vibrating that ought not to be because the...

    reQuest Woofer Replacement

    Howdy, guys. I thought my woofer problems were just a loose grille, but it seems to have reappeared. I'm wondering if there are any drop-in replacements for the OEM Martin Logan reQuest woofer. Yes, I know it would be hard to exactly match what's there, but surely there's something "close...

    Speakers: Long Term Storage Methods?

    Now that I own a pair of reQuests, I'm getting ready to 'retire' my beloved Dahlquist DQ10's. I don't see myself ever... ever, selling them, but there's only room for one pair, and the ML's won out. I'm wondering if any of you guys have recommendations on how to store speakers for the long(er)...

    Help with new ReQuests

    Just picked up a pre-owned set of ReQuests from the original owner who bought them in 2000 and had them in storage for about 5 years. Since it'll be a while since the CLS's that I really want show up, this will have to do for now. Two questions. 1) Is there anything in particular I should...

    CLS Buyer's Guide - What Should I Look For?

    Howdy, folks. New member, registered to ask a couple questions. I have a deal pending on a set of CLS's, which the present owner claims were upgraded to the 'MK2' (I presume he means the electronics are CLSII either A or Z) but he was unsure of which, and also states that the panels are 715...

    New member from PA

    Howdy, folks. Just registered to ask a few questions. Been lusting after the CLS's since I first laid ears on 'em back in the 1980s, but it's taken until now for life and finances to cooperate. I have a couple questions that I'll post in the appropriate section presently.
