Hi to you all, I am keen to get a new sub, either a descent I or depth I and was wondering if the PBK is only for new Martin Logan subs coming out soon or can it be applied to a new depth I or decsent I. Wondering if anybody has used it and had great results. Out of curiosity, which of the...

Hi all, Well, I have had my ethos for a few months now , running of my Yamaha receiver (rxa2020)until I saved up a bit of cash in order to buy decent gear to make them justice. I am after a more of a warmer sound, if this makes sense. I have listen to the ethos with some linn, luxman class a...

Hi all Is anybody using a marantz integrated( like the pearl, 15 and 11 series/range)with some of the new ML range and use it to good effect. I just got a audio lab m-dac and need to partener it with an integrated not costing an arm and leg as the house has. Regards Speakers are the ethos...

Hi all, We all know that the back wall plays a major rle in the erformance of the ML range as sound emits from both front and back. Panels should be placed not too far or to close to the back wall and if possible try some shelving or drapes.... But here where I can nit find any info on, a...

good morning MLO, As the title suggest, what happened to sonos? a few years back they were the market leader for streaming, but now they seem to have taken a step back. they seem more concerned about their speakers and sub than moving forwward into streaming. their device does not stream...

Please correct me if m wrong but it seems to me that most new dac and even Source are now incorporating volume function/control. Are we about to see a change where the Pre will eventually disappear from the audio chain? may be the next generation will not even bother with a Pre. Does the...

Hi all, What is the general consensud about HDMI vs USB from a computer to a dac for audio only purposes. It seems to me that many new dacs coming onto the market have both HDMI and usb inputs as well as the common toslnk,spiff such as linn systems, oppo and nad dacs. Is there any advantages of...

Hi all, My current set up consists of a yamaha rxa2020 receiver feeding a pair of w4s mono amps to a pair of theos. At the moment I use my apple tv to stream all my music from my iTunes library which is stored onto a Mac mini, via hdmi to the yamaha receiver. The room has also been treated and...

i just noticed a sub thread which made me right this one. I am just wondering if it s easier to blend/integrate sub(s) with either a ML speaker that has a passive woofer or one that has a active woofer (either manually or by room correction software), or does it not make any difference at all...

hi all, i have all my cd collection in itunes ripped in either aiff or alac and just wondering if using the apple tv (which is connected to my anthem receiver via hdmi) as a music streamer would not do the theos justice. i kind of feel that it won t as it s only $100, but on the other hand i...

Hi all, Just wondering if I do decide to bi amp some speakers,would using a Ycable from receiver Pre out to stereo amp for each channel compromise the signal as being split in two.? Some receivers such as my anthem mrx don t allow biamping,so i would have to use there out of the receiver with a...

Hi all, I am curious to know what is the difference between room correction such as the xt32,ARC foubd in receivers and tone control on Pre/integrated. Does room correction basically do the same thing as adjusting tone control on an amp is there more to it that that. M not talking about the...

Hi all, I am wondering where I could find some info in regards to building and designing a HT room my self.This would be for a non ML set up but focal speakers. I have decided to exchange my theos for ethos and spend $3000 dollars for a company ( from Spain)to do the acoustic treatment of the...

Hi all, Ok the title may be a little confusing at first so I will try and explain what I mean by it. I have the theos speakers,Passage centre and just ordered the w4s st 1000 power amp to power them and getting the ML Depth I sub.I need a receiver that will power the centre and rears but since I...

Hi all, Please excuse my ignorance in this subject. I don t even know how to describe what I want to ask you guys but I ll give it a go. My question is about class A amps and tubes/valves amps. Are valves/tubes amps class A? If so what is the difference between a tube amp ( where the valves are...

Hi all, This may seem like a very stupid question, but why are ML so hard on amps. Are all ML hard to drive!? Is it safe to assume that those that have an active woofer are easier to drive as the amp only has to feed the panel?. Regards John

Hi all, Just wondering if anybody is using the new onkyo pr sc 5509 processor and the 9 channel amp with Martin Logan speakers. I can get it as a kit for $4550 Australian dollars and it seems a good deal, but afraid the amp may not be up to powering the theos ( I can bi amp the theos too). If...

Hi guys, I recently acquired a pair of theos (as per previous post) and will probably go with an onkyo 3009 or 5009. I was wondering if adding a emotive xpa5 , and biwire the theos with the xpa5 (and use the rest of the receiver amplification to power the rest of system and secon zone) will...

hi all, i just put the deposit for the theos. i was initially really worried that i would not get the full potential of them as i was kind of restricted with placement.I can only have them about 90cm from the front wall (to the middle of the panel). but the dealer came to my house with the demo...

Hi all What would be the biggest negative drawbacks if you place the theos , the panel about 70cm away from back wall. i am seriously considering them but can t have them sticking out 1.5m in the room.the max is about 75cm away. is it a bit of a waste to have such a giod speaker and not have it...
