    Theos & Disappointing Bass Response

    I have a ML Dynamo 1000 and 2 REL S3 subs. REL is so much faster and 10X better. Buy used and save. I now use my Dynamo 1000 with my Vision X soundbar. Works great there. After 5 years with Dynamo 1000 and ML ESLs, I went to ML Montis and 2 REL S3. OMG. RELs going straight from my Krell speaker...

    CLX system

    REL REL "REL S SERIES". Run your Martin Logans Full Range. Connect RELs to amplifier speaker outputs (aquires the cadence of the amplifier). There is not another subwoofer system that will "add" to the main speaker in a way that it doesn't disturb what the main speaker is pushing out. You must...

    Amp Recommendations for ESL 15

    If you are looking for a little sweeter Sound, I would recommend the Krell XD amps or the Dan D'agastino entry level amps used. Your JC1 should warm up in 30 minutes for good sound. So there really is no reason to not shut them off. JC1's are good amps, don't get me wrong, with strong powerful...

    Existential Crises!

    Krell all the way. I have 3 of them and they all sound better than anything else I have tried. You really need an amplifier that doubles in power when the ohms drop down. Use a preamp that suits you, and it can be a tube preamp. But the amp for ESLs need to be able to drop down to 2 ohms or...

    Ethos vs. Electromotion ESL-X?

    I would think that the new ESL-X is the better speaker. I lot of development time was taken to get this speaker with two dynamic drivers just right and out the door to the customer. Panel sizes are very similar. Now I haven't heard either. I just own ESLs. So if the panels are just about the...

    Can Impression 11A or Montis handle Rock well?

    @RCHeliguy I'm not saying it doesn't sound good. Just I have heard that material sound more like it was intended on other speakers. I wouldn't trade my Logans for any other speaker. Just love 'em. Glad you're enjoying the tracks more than I am. The new Cold Play song "Hypnotised" off of Tidal...

    Can Impression 11A or Montis handle Rock well?

    I bought "The Best of Nickelback Vol.I" the other day and was kind of disappointed at the performance coming out of the Martin Logans. I didn't have high expectations in the first place because that kind of music is not why I have Martin Logans in my Livingroom. I tend to listen to less edgy...

    Can Impression 11A or Montis handle Rock well?

    I hear that the 210 is amazing. Haven't heard it yet. I live pretty far away now from audio salons now since the move to Florida. Would love to hear them with some of the ML panels. Got one REL refurbished for $1,400 instead of $2,100. The other REL was bought in need of repair. Got it working...

    Can Impression 11A or Montis handle Rock well?

    I would love to own the Montis. It has the larger Xstat panel. I have budget constraints, and have spent a large amount of money on a couple of really good amplifiers and subwoofers. My ESLs I got 5 years ago from Martin Logan that were refreshed for just a little over half price. I would say...

    Can Impression 11A or Montis handle Rock well?

    Just joined forum. Read what you guys thought about Rock going thru Montis. I have just ESLs, but my opinion is if you like to blast rock, don't buy Martin Logan. Conventional Tower speakers will produce a more rewarding experience, and most of the rock tracks will sound good. Conventional...
