    ML-Ethos - noise, feedback when putting the covers on after session

    Hi, I found the problem and it has nothing to do with the speakers. So thank you all for your thoughts and prayers ... BTW. Do not buy the "Nordost" RCA-cables from AliExpress ...

    ML-Ethos - noise, feedback when putting the covers on after session

    Hello felllow foil friends, here is something I just noticed today. Everytime I end a listening session with my ML-Ethos, I turn my streamer-doc off, close Roon, walk up to the speakers and put the standard dust-covers on them. I have a new (25year old Symphonic Line RG9 MK3) integrated amp and...

    Ethos not starting till replug

    Yeah, that did work in my setup as well. As 2 (!) of my preamps are plagued by faults I'm using a dac-streamer as pre directly to the power-amps and depending of internal settings of the dac-streamer increasing the volume does work here as well ...

    Ethos not starting till replug

    I had that issue two or three times with my used 2017 Ethos. Still in my honeymoon-period so listening almost daily and I guess 2-3 times slight hiccups regarding start-up is no real concern. Seems to be related on the input signal "strength" or "volume". Switching to a different source usually...

    Which Amp to buy? The most frequently asked question on this site. READ THIS!!

    I'm still very much in the honeymoon phase with my ML-Ethos and these are already planting strange ideas in my head. I have studied this thread very much from start to finish and as a complete panel noob I just would like to confirm - with the active bass (class d, is it not?) this whole be very...

    Ethos vs Vista, Active Bass vs Passive Bass

    I hope but I do not know. I have briefly heard 2 other models. A new ElectroMotion ESL X at the place where I had the Magnepan 1.7 debacle and then the 2006 Vista from private owner. It is almost impossible these days to listen to Magnepans at dealers and at least very very hard to find a...

    Ethos vs Vista, Active Bass vs Passive Bass

    Nope, did not. First I did not notice them plus this being my first ML-experience ever I tried to focus and make sense of what I was hearing ... I had a long long listening session today with the Ethos - and I'm beginning to wonder "what have I been doing all these years". This is getting better...

    Ethos vs Vista, Active Bass vs Passive Bass

    Well, if you look at let's say cars - what would all the tuners and modders do? Well, I cannot comment on the Vista and Vista bass-performance with that box anymore - but with regards to the Ethos and it is very early days in case of setup and adjusting indeed my very initial reaction to the...

    Ethos vs Vista, Active Bass vs Passive Bass

    Well, I did a thing today! In the end - the age-thing got to me. So after driving like 1500km the last days I have picked up my Ethos today. It was really really hot today here in Germany so it was tough to do all the carrying and unpacking but I must say ML sure does spend one or two thoughts...

    Ethos vs Vista, Active Bass vs Passive Bass

    Thank you Brandon, Martin Logan thinks these boxes do and I quote "My best guess is something that alters the impedance that the connected amplifier sees, allegedly making them easier to drive ..." the company does still exist so I have written an email. Your other points sure do make sense...

    Ethos vs Vista, Active Bass vs Passive Bass

    Hello from Cologne dear MLO-Forum, this is my first post - I will do a proper introduction later! Promise!! But I'm right in the middle of making a decision which ML to buy and I could use some knowledge and proper advice and I could use it fast (purchase planned for this week). After an ugly...
