Interesting profile of a New Orleans audio/videophile system... 'I could power the Acura Stage at Jazz Fest pretty easily': An audiophile's Garden District home Towards the end of the article he says he might relocate his former ML Statements to one of the movie theaters he owns! He certainly...

I have an extra ML Perfect Bass Kit lying around that's only been used twice. I no longer need it because my Anthem MRX 740 also came with one. Hopefully one of you with the newer Masterpiece models (or BF subs) can use it. The kit now retails for $120, but you can have it for $40 + shipping...

I don't recall seeing this topic discussed here, though I've read about it elsewhere (e.g. Reference Line Arrays - REL Acoustics). For the past few years I've struggled to optimally integrate a pair of BF 210's (running as dual mono) with my Expression 13A's. Frankly, the 13A's, by themselves...

I saw a post (on another Forum) mentioning a video of KEF's "Force Cancelling" driver technology... How Force Cancelling Driver Technology Eliminates Cabinet Vibrations I thought, hey, ML has been doing something similar for YEARS, firstly with their BalancedForce subs, and lately in their...

I've been patiently waiting to find a replacement for my 12 y/o Denon 3808 receiver, and looks like it'll be the new Anthem MRX 540 or 740. Details about the new lineup here... Anthem® / Premium Audio Video Receivers & Powered Amplifiers Like their STR separates, the new receivers incorporate...

Just noticed this Summer promotion on their website... Premium HiFi Speakers for Home Theater & Stereo Pretty good deal for those interested in the Masterpiece line (Renaissance, Expression, etc.)

In June 2007, a group of us all got together for a weekend to tour the ML facilities in Lawrence, KS, and visit nearby Acoustic Sounds in Salina, KS. Although Tom, and others, from that original group have moved on to different gear and pursuits, a surprising number of us are still active on...

ML subs offer both line level (from preamp) and speaker level (from amp) connections. I've always used the former with my BF 210's. However, on a whim, I just tried the Speaker Level connection direct from my C-J amp to the subs, as that's the approach recommended for REL subs (likewise highly...

Wow! Just saw this press release on Sound & Vision... https://www.soundandvision.com/content/paradigm-co-founder-buys-paradigm-anthem-and-martinlogan I think it's a favorable development as the new CEO is an industry veteran, and already associated with the brands. Anthem's decision to make...

Just got an email notification (from Anthem) about a new version of ARC that is compatible with the newest ML speakers, and incorporates PBK for compatible ML subs... https://www.anthemarc.com/arc-genesis/index.php Can't wait to try it! Also found this interesting history about how ARC/PBK...

Not sure exactly what their technology is, but definitely different (albeit homely :D)... http://www.absolutedimension.com/ Does anybody know more about this company and design? Their website is scant on details.

Since replacing my Oppo BDP 95 with the (taller) 205, I've had to rearrange and crowbar everything into my old StudioTech rack, so looking for a replacement. The Salamander Archetype, unlike most others, offers infinitely adjustable shelf placement, but I'm wondering how stable that design is...

Those of us in the Southeast will have a new Audio Show to attend next year! https://floridaaudioexpo.com Some members of the Suncoast and Sarasota Audio Societies have joined forces to get this going! It's still in the early planning stages, but they already have a number of major exhibitors...

Paul McGowan has some excellent video's addressing various audiophile issues. In this one, from 2017, he states that, ideally, the musicians should image BEHIND the plane of the speakers... Obviously, a lot depends on the recording, and room acoustics. However, I've had two kinds of dipole...

For all of us who have/had Bubinga Summits...

Eikon speakers by Gayle Martin Sanders! Has anybody else seen this Axpona exhibitor listing for a ? new speaker by Gayle Sanders... http://www.axpona.com/exhibitors_detail.asp?ID=22302 Unlike Ron Sutherland, Gayle's been out of audio for quite some time. I wonder what the Eikon is?

FYI, for those still using a Squeezebox Touch... Last year, my Squeezebox Touch stopped responding to the remote. I tried another Squeezebox remote, but that also didn't work, so I reverted to using Squeeze Commander on my Android phone and tablet. I (like many others on the Slimdevices...
