SOLD Martin Logan Monolith 3x with Active Crossover. This is the newer model monolith 3. It has the number three instead of three Roman numerals. When I first purchased in 2018 I had them completely checked out by a respected repairman George Meyer AV in Los Angeles. They handle a lot of...

I also have a pair of Monolith 3 speakers. I know what you are saying may be true with newer ML speakers. When you unplug the 3's they slowly go down in volume. They still play, however, at a much lower volume after the charge dissipates. Except for the C18 I have not owned any other model newer...

Great idea. I don't have my computer set up for that yet. I will get the mic. set up and see how it looks. Thanks

Focus C18 Center channel. I had a sense the speakers, ESL was not working properly. I removed the screws to get to the back and disconnected all but the ESL. I played music through while disconnecting the wall wart power supply. ESL sounds exactly the same. I'm confused. Does this mean there...

Hi Its been some time since we last spoke. Health issues completely side lined my Monolith 3. Mine is the one with the 3 not iii. I have gathered equipment. I have the Sunfire 600 and Crown to handle the amplification. Still need a preamp (recommendations)? Is it the DBX Driverack PA2 that you...

I know this has been covered many times. But who is is that refurbishes panels?

I'm currently using the theater i. I've heard good things about the ESL c18. The cost is holding me back however. Will I see a huge difference in the newer c18 versus the theater i?

Very nice. I have the capacity to desolder and replace caps. I am by no means an EE.That said , it inspires me to send off my panels to ESL. Does he use the more up to date mylar coating? In my view, putting a layer of GR Reseach norez and recapping, and a new woofer would compete with anything...

I didn't know there was anyone out there doing refurbishing. I'm in California and shipping can get you when you're dealing with big panels like this. Are there several people that refurbish the panels or is this one in particular the best that you know about? Thanks

Lots Meaning > 3000.00

Hello, I just want to take the time to thank everyone for posting and reply. My big monoliths sound pretty nice still. I don’t know how much a. panel refresh might cost. Does anyone out there have an idea? Thanks

Hi Jonfo, Unfortunately I don't have a lot of test equipment. I was using a sweep from YouTube. I switched to a speaker that I know is good and it did the same thing so I'm sure it was just that sweep. When I switched to another on YouTube it sounds just fine. As for the panels I was told when I...

Hi everyone, Just got my monolith3 amplifiers back they worked fine. I am curious to know if frequency sweeps on such a large panel is not recommended.? I just did a frequency sweep and the panel sounded awful. Not a nice even tone on the upper register or lower register. Started to distort...

Hi everyone. Hope you had a great weekend. My question. When do you just throw in the towel trying to Refurbish Old Martin Logan speakers. In particular I am asking about the Monolith3 with the active crossover. Appearance 9 out of 10. Panels still sound nice. Planned on replacing woofers with...

Thank you so much. I know it's a big ask but I would love to hear from any of the members who might have the working electronics for the monolith 3. I am so desperate and would love to hear these speakers. Being the newbie I am I fell for a scam. Some guy named David in woodland hills rip me...
