    Martin Logan - Super Systems... Seeing / Hearing is Believing

    The amps were special ordered as 220v units and are powered by their own circuit. After a night of heavy use, they are barely warm.

    Martin Logan - Super Systems... Seeing / Hearing is Believing

    Both the McIntosh and Martin Logan folks were at the house to help set up the system. They did not seem to have any issues and were pleased as how it came out...so I'm good!

    Why Center at all??

    AKM3 Have you verified that all three speakers are in phase? What you describe can also be caused by a phase issue.

    Why Center at all??

    I believe I have found the compatible center channel with the Paradigm C5. For the first time, after using a Stage for a few years, I feel the center is doing its job and keeping up with my CLX L/R!

    Debating amps for ML Theater Setup

    I use McIntosh MC601 x3 for L/C/R and a pair of MC302's for surround and rear. L/R-ML CLX, C-Paradigm C5, Surround-ML Stylos, Rears-ML EFX.

    Martin Logan EFX as rears??????

    As rears they sound great. I am driving the surrounds and rears with a pair of McIntosh MC302's. In a small room/apartment they may work as fronts. But in a larger theater setup I would only use them as surrounds or rears.

    Martin Logan EFX as rears??????

    I use the EFX as rear speakers and a pair of older Stylos for surrounds. They do a great job. Are they worth $3k? It's all relative. See Photo.

    Martin Logan's with Mcintosh amps!!!

    I own 3 MC601's to power my L/R CLX's and my new Paradigm C5 Center that replaced my Stage. For the first time in years, the center has come alive. The Stage is no sonic, and, in my opinion, no timbre match for the CLX's.

    Stage X in My System

    I only have 20" of clearance below the screen drop. There is no practical way I could use an EFX for a center. If, however, I were tempted to try, I would use 2 EFX based on their panel size and dispersion angle.

    Stage X in My System

    As a vocal supporter of Martin Logan, and a CLX, Stage, Stylos, and EFX, owner, I became disillusioned with the Stage after seeing Skyfall and Les Miserables at a 4K theater. They were the first films I saw in a theater in 15 years. It demonstrated forcefully that the Stage was the weak point in...

    crackle in panel

    One or both channels? If one only, reverse the outputs of the amp and check if it appears on the opposite channel. If so, check the amp.

    Selling a pair of ESLs, need advice

    If the speakers are in very good to excellent condition, contact Martin Logan and ask for the cost of new boxes. If the cost can be justified, you can then offer them on a site like this, or AudioGon, or even Ebay, and be able to ship them anywhere.

    Paradigm Sub1 with ML?

    I have a pair of Sub1's with my CLX. I think they are awesome! They are fast, tight and a good timbre match to the CLX. At the suggestion of ML, I have the crossover on my AVP set to 63hz for the CLX.

    Annual Martin Logan Owners Club visit to ML & get together.

    My first hand experience showed the opposite. ML QC actually took a step backwards with the move to Canada. I may be just a matter of the learning curve of new employees, but I suspect it is the greed of Paradigm management. ML in Lawrence does a great job of dealing with the QC issues and their...

    Is there a new stage from Martin Logan coming?

    Earlier today I sent the following email to Martin Logan. They are familiar with my system. Today I saw the movie Skyfall in a 4k Ultra Theater. this was the first theater experience I have had in 15 years. The impression I left the with was that the Stage is the weak link in my system. The...

    Is there a new stage from Martin Logan coming?

    If one has $15k-$25k invested in M-L fronts, would the cost range you suggest be that far out of line with a potential market of the existing base of Summit, CLX, and comparable existing setups? As for size...I leave that up to the engineers.

    Is there a new stage from Martin Logan coming?

    The Stage-X uses a ribbon tweeter to replace the dome on the Stage. Not nearly a new product and certainly provides no motivation to upgrade my Stage.. The fundamental issue of a M-L center channel to match the dynamics of their high-end panels is still far from resolved. A new "Super" Stage is...
