    Is ML Vista bad for karaoke?

    Hi, My wife wants me to setup a karaoke system in my theater room. As always, she wins. Is Vista suitable for live voice? Should I just go out and buy a cheapo 2 channel floor speakers for her? TIA, ~joy

    Looking for Sub recommendation for Theater Room with Vista

    Thank you all for your response. I've nailed it down to 3 choices but still debating. SVS PC12 Plus - it's round (btw, it seems people prefer PB version which is cube shape over round. Does cube shape sound better then round?) HSU VTF-15H - cheaper and it can BOOM JL Audio F110 thanks, ~joy

    Looking for Sub recommendation for Theater Room with Vista

    Hi, I'm almost done my Home Theater which is about 12ft wide x 17ft. I have a pair of Vista and a Stage center that are powered by Emotiva XPA-3. I am using the Onkyo 809 to support the other 4 in-wall speakers from Monoprice. Now, I just need a sub or maybe 2 since the Onkyo supports 7.2. The...

    HELP! My Vista sounds worse then .99 cents earphone

    Well, one word solved my headaches. I took those 2 panels for a good clean "shower". As for the blue led light from one of the speaker that didn't lit up, well that's because the previous owner must have taken the panel off before. The led light was not placed in the center. I've inspected...

    HELP! My Vista sounds worse then .99 cents earphone

    I replaced the power supply and it's a step closer but not there yet. Speaker(Left) I've replaced the power supply but the blue light is still off. The ESL have sound now but it's still low. I mean the volume is on it still very low. I can hear the bass over power the ESL sounds. Is there any...

    HELP! My Vista sounds worse then .99 cents earphone

    I called ML today and speak to Melodie Brouhard. She is great and very helpful. She is the one who sent me the speaker jumpers earlier too. The problem that I am having seems like a dead power supply. I'll update this thread once I have some update. Btw, a power supply is about $100 each and a...

    HELP! My Vista sounds worse then .99 cents earphone

    I was using the metal plate jumper but I know the woof works fine so I removed the jumper and connected the speaker wires to the ESL directly. Yes, the left speaker has a blue light next(or inside, i forgot) to the ML logo from the front panel. I don't recall there's a blue light on the right...

    HELP! My Vista sounds worse then .99 cents earphone

    Sorry, I didn't include the details. I have the power cord plugged in and connected. Here are the thing that I know so far. 1. Both woofer sounds fine 2. Both ESL have the same issue(This is the strange part that both of them behave the same. Issue: No sound from the ESL until you turn the...

    HELP! My Vista sounds worse then .99 cents earphone

    Recently, I purchased a pair of used Vista and I haven't connect it until today. I think I just got a pair of lemon. The upper range sound from the panel is hardly noticable. I have to turn the volume up to -25.00db in order to hear anything from the panel. Does this mean I just flashed a...

    Building Home Theater, decided L/R ML Source but what for in-wall surround

    Thank you all. I finally know what you guys are talking about now. All my cheap speakers only have 1 input so these 2 input thing just confused the hell out of me. I'm so noob. :o

    Building Home Theater, decided L/R ML Source but what for in-wall surround

    Ok, I brought these Vista used so maybe the previous owner forgot to give the "gold jumpers" to me. Does anyone know where to buy these "gold jumpers" for Vista? thanks, ~joy

    Building Home Theater, decided L/R ML Source but what for in-wall surround

    Ok, I am a speaker noob. I finally got a chance to hook up the Vista but I am confused. :confused: There are 2 sets of input behind the Vista and there's only left+right from my receiver. Do I only need connect it to the ESL or I need to get a special cable for 1 input with 2 output? Also, I was...

    Building Home Theater, decided L/R ML Source but what for in-wall surround

    Just got Vista and Stage Well, I was looking for Source and Matinee but I end up with the used Vista and Stage for the same price as if I am getting Source + Matinee. Now, I am still back to the original questions. Is Onkyo 1008 good enough to support Vista and Stage? Would Vignette a good fit...
