    Anyone use M-L Stages as rear channels in 7.1 system

    Hi Folks, For purposes of being able to review new Blu-ray film and audio releases in 7.1 channel format (Dolby Atmos defaults to TrueHD 7.1) , I am going to be compelled to add two rear channels to my 5.4 M-L System (#308) that consists of CLXs, Stage X and a pair of Balanced Force 212s and a...

    New Center Channel from Martin Logan

    There is some scuttlebutt that M-L has a new ESL/hybrid center channel in the works to replace the stage and accommodate the greater ESL surface area that its larger speakers like the CLX and now the Neolith can muster. Anyone heard anything or do I have to wait for the 2016 CES?

    Balanced Force 212 Subs are now in the house!

    Yesterday marked another musical epiphany in my sound room. My installer with the help of my handy man hefted two massive square cartons into the house (the speakers weigh in at 140 lbs each!), and with the two of them grunting and straining, a pair of gloss piano black Martin Logan Balanced...

    Stage X in My System

    I have had a Stage center channel speaker in my HT system for the past 7 years. While I did not worry about compatibility with my Summits, I felt that the Stage was not quite as good a match for the CLXs that I eventually upgraded to. However, as M-L had nothing else in their center channel line...

    Is there a new stage from Martin Logan coming?

    This question may have already popped up but I heard through the grapevine that M-L was coming out with a new Stage or Stage replacement this year. Anyone find anything out and, if so, are there pictures or specs?

    Adding a Theta digital to my ML system

    Hi folks, Anyone used a Theta Digital Casablanca III with ML speakers in a home theatre?

Rest of system includes Pass XP-30, XA-100.5, X-3, CLXs, Stage, EFX and Descent-i...

    Martin Logan Three-Center Channel

    I recently saw a demonstration of the Magnepan so-called Tri-Center channel which features a standard center speaker flanked by two vertical panels, triamplified from the center channel of a processor. The sound-staging was pretty amazing and dimensional. I was wondering if any ML owner has...

    Do you serve your music on a music server?

    Given the growing list of digital music servers that are out there and the increasing sales of digital file downloads, I wonder if MLC members are going this way. I would be interested in hearing about the following: 1. Do you usea music server in your system? 2. If so, which one(s) do you...

    Anyone tried stacked Stages for Center Channel

    I was intrigued by a recent thread on CC's for the larger MLs, Odyssey, Summits, CLX's. I am currently using a single stage between my CLX's. Would be interested if anyone has gone that route to get a larger suface area more in line with that the two front channels.

    Considering JL Audio Fathom Subs: Any suggestions

    My current system #308 has CLX main speakers and 2 Descent-i in front and 2 Descents in rear (for home theater). Room is 15 X 21. I am interested in those who have integrated Fathoms into their M-L systems. Questions deal with reliability, ease of set up and obviously integration with ES...

    What phono stages are you using and why did you pick that one?

    With the vinyl renaissance upon us, it seems that new phono stages are cropping up in epidemic if not pandemic fashion. They vary from the minimalist (Lehmann cube) to the maximalist (Boulder) and at all points in between. As an unregenerate vinyl junkie, currently listenng to Ian and Sylvia's...

    Anyone heard the PS Audio PerfectWave DAC and Transport?

    There has been a lot of buzz (mostly on the PS Audio website) about the PerfectWave digital duo. I have not seen any legitimate reviews of this equipment. It is allegedly the only current set up other than a computer that can play the new Hi-Rez 176.4 stuff without down-rezzing. The idea of...

    For Pass Labs and M-L fans-a match made in heaven!

    I have a pair of CLX's as my main speakers and have powered them with the Pass Labs X350.5 which I have used with previous M-Ls (Ascents/Summits) quite successfully. I have recently auditioned a set of Pass Labs XA-100.5 monoblocks. I can tell you unequivocally that the XA-100.5's and CLX's...

    New M-L Center Speaker

    I have heard rumors that M-L will be offering a new center stage to replace the Stage and mate with the CLX/Summit-X/Spires better. Any substance to this rumor and when it might appear?

    CLX Speakers are in the House!

    Speakers arrived 2 weeks ahead of schedule. With the assistance of two younger men (with good backs), they were unboxed and installed in a couple of hours (which included moving and boxing up my pair of beloved Summits and a trip to the storage facility). Also updated my Descent-i's for CLX...

    CLX's Ordered!

    This is by way of thanking numerous MLC members for their input as I considered upgrading my ML system. It was most encouraging to know that my listening room was not too small to house the CLX's. I was originally considering a Summit X move (from original Summits). However, it did not seem...

    Original Summits vs Summit X's

    I am considering trading in my original Summits for the X's. I have had them for about 3 years and have been very happy with them. There is no dealer anywhere near me with X's so I have no way of doing a direct A/B which is obviously the best. Has anyone in Loganowners group had this...
