I too am using a Sunfire amp. I do also have a Mark Levinson No23 and a Bryston 3B. The Mark Levinson works well with my Sequel II's but generates a lot of heat. The Bryston was my backup amp while the Sunfire was getting a tune up. The Bryston works very well just does not have as much punch at...

I love your post. I got to thinking, what about skipping the current clamp and going with some sore of inline shunt?

I just have to ask.... why are you getting rid of the PS Audio equipment? I was thinking someday in the future of buying BHK amps and was curious how they pair with ML's

You could get something that will work at McMaster Carr all day long. I attached a screen shot. I have done this many times before. If you can't measure the diameter of the center pin, you could just buy both the 2MM & 2.5MM Either keep them both or return the unused one. $15.00 might not be...

I'm not sure if this helps you but give it a try. https://www.martinlogan.com/en/product/motif

Wow... I have been using my Cinema Grand for years now with the current output to the panels and the voltage output to the woofers on both my rebuilt Sequel II's and a stock pair of Request. I still can't decide what speakers I like better. I have a really bad room for speakers. Since reading...

Patrik, I just saw your posting. I too purchased a pair of Seque lI's from a Pawn Shop a few years back. I did hear them before the purchase but it was not a good test preview. Not a good preview as in a cashier's mp3 on their phone through a cheap flea market receiver. I was so excited that I...

That's not a bad idea at all. I never thought of such a thing. Thanks Robert D

I currently own a pair of Sequel II's for a few years now. I am very happy with them. I purchased new panels through ML a few years back and recapped the crossovers about a year ago. I have a neighbor that has a pair of reQuest for sale. I need a bit more bottom end or bass. This is the only...

I have a pair of Sequel II's mated with a Sunfire Cinema Grand Amp. This amp has failed me again. Twice now. I used a Bryston 3B for years and did like the sound but it's lacking a certain punch. I have an option to purchase a Mark Levinson #23 amp for around $1500.00 The owner/seller stated...

I use Mc Master Carr... They pretty much have everything and I purchase something from them almost every day. See if this link will help you. https://www.mcmaster.com/cords/specifications-met~iec-60320/

For what it's worth... I stumbled across a Bryston 3B amp at a garage sale for $300 a few days after I sent my Sunfire Cinema Grand for a tune-up. I liked it, not the same punch when driven hard like the Sunfire but worked pretty well overall. I have the older ML's that some say are hard to...

Not that it helps anything, but an ole timer once told me: " You hear with your ears and listen with your brain" that could apply to the break-in theory

I replaced my Sequel II's panels summer of 2019. I did notice a great improvement. I also recapped them a few months back, some improvement as well. As for removing the panels, lay them on their back and support the back towards the top. ( a few pillows, cardboard box etc...) Tap the wood side...

I did try changing the woofer polarity/phasing. Not much different. It did lose some stage depth. Just for fun, I changed one speaker phasing, listened then changed the other. It's funny, how the sound differs moving around the room with one speaker out of phase. But I understand.
