Wow, what a beast in size and sound. I have it under the motif and not mounted yet. It sounds like I have another full sized panel speaker for a center channel. The width and clarity of the soundstage is a night and day diffence. What an upgrade.

Has anybody has spent time with the SLM or XL speaker or has used them to replace the fresco or vignettes? I currently love the vignettes performing front channel duties for the living room TV and as rears in the theater. Our new spaces will be larger and more open and I am wondering if the...

Hello all, I have a friend in the market for an inexpensive turn table, likely under $250. Any experience with something low maintance and in this ballpark? Thanks for any advice.

Has anybody checked this app out yet? I downloaded it on Wednesday and it has been great so far. It basically gives you points for scanning the barcodes of items you see when you shop. It provides you a list of stores in the area using the phone's gps and then a list of products that are...

Hey all, I know many of you do this and I am looking to get started. I have a newer pc labtop, a wireless n router, and a denon 3808 that is connected via the Ethernet cable to the router. How do I network this thing to get my labtop to send music over wi-fi to my receiver? Sorry for my...

Has anybody picked this up yet? If so, any comments?

I decided to do some measurements of my own tonight and found out some good and bad information. The good news is that my room is almost dead flat from 20Hz up until over 10Khz (+/- 2 dbs). The problem is that at 13k (-8 DB) it starts to drop off and at 20k we are talking about -14 DB drop off...

Interesting piece in The Wall Street Journal about running the numbers on our new budget and spending plans. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123561551065378405.html

Questions for the elders. What would I have to do to make the above happen? There is a usable Sequel panel on eBay that is peaking my interests. Can I just set the Denon to the 250hz panel crossover point and spread the low end to the fronts and subwoofer? Would that be pointless for a...

Take the time to read this: http://www.portfolio.com/news-markets/national-news/portfolio/2008/11/11/The-End-of-Wall-Streets-Boom#page1 The author of the story interviewed the people that knew this was going to happen and their investigation into uncovering the truth. Very worthwhile read.

Time for a new subwoofer? I am looking to replace my Dynamo as I believe that after moving into the new house it I outgrown it. Don't really like the idea of dropping $1K+ for something like a Depth, etc. Looked at SVS, Velodyne, etc. and would like to sell the Dynamo and not pay much more on...

Sara Bareilles Little Voice July 17, 2007 Epic Pop / Soul? Sara Bareilles is one of my favorite female vocalists after recently breaking on the scene. I consider her equivalent to a female Jack Johnson, and she possesses an amazing voice to go along with pretty solid piano skills. The CD...

Wondering if anybody would like to weigh in on the subject? In a year when the Democratic Party would be a shoe-in for the presidency, it looks like this is going to be a close race. At this point during Kerry vs. Bush, Kerry was up about 10-13% in various polls and Bush ended up being...

If anybody is looking for a personalized home theater sign, there is a really nice guy making them on ebay. the ID is bettersigns and here is a sample of what he was able to make for me. It is 24" by "7.5, made with wood, and has gold and silver lettering. Pretty sharp.

I was in the mood to put together some budget panels that actually looked and functioned well without breaking the bank. Enter: 6 - 2' x 4' x 3" Mineral Wool Board (basically the specs of OC 705 but cheaper and more rigid) - $85 to my door. 9 - 1" x 2" x 8' pieces of wood cut into 2’ and 4’...

Hoping all is well to the club members in southern Wisconsin, northern Illnois, Iowa, and wherever else got hit. It was an act of God, but the riverfront appartment building that I lived in two weeks ago is now under water. The house we bought is located in a higher area in Milwaukee and...

There might have been a post on this before, but I am starting to see Martin Logan in some funny places. First, I was watching the show "Chuck" on NBC. I won’t describe the show, but he works at “BUY MORE” (Best Buy ripoff) and they have a pair of ML Clarity in their Home Theater demo room...

Queen Greatest Hits I & II Released in 1992 Hollywood Records Rock What can I say; Freddie Mercury is his own instrument. The “WOW” factor of this CD can only really be reproduced on a set of speakers that have superb imaging (such as Martin Logan). This album starts off with “Bohemian...

Sorry if this has been done before, but I thought I would be fun to have a post of the oldest picture you have of your setup vs. the newest picture that is available. It could be your first setup ever, or just the first at a seperate location, have fun. I will start.

Tonight I just relized the importance of floorspikes my Martin Logans. I was doing a little bit of vertical tilting to try to get each panel exactly in line, so I decided to screw in the spikes for the first time. WOW, the same Jack Johnson CD that I just played all the way through took on a...
