    ESL 15A vs CLX ART+sub ?

    I'll chime in! Back in 2017 I flew up to Shawn's (Davinci Media) & Mike's home (GW1800) & also demo'd the CLX Art & 15's. No question. CLX with subs. The 15s were really good. But there was something about the imaging and effortless nature of the CLX. In addition to that the mid bass was more...

    X3... I live in Monroe, LA and purchased my CLX Art and dual 212's from Shawn -DaVinci Media. I flew up in the fall of 2017 and never looked back. Wonderful experience.... Sorry about your visit Mike. Yeah sometimes I have received that from places. Not only are they disinterested but almost...

    buying used: CLX ART 6 years old vs 15A 2 years old

    We have a similar story Brad. I should have clarified my post above ^^ I as well, flew up to hear Mike's CLX and then to Shawn's DaVinci Media to listen to the 15s. I heard about your trip. :o Both are wonderful...I agree with your assessment. I might add a few percentage points up tho :) 25%...

    buying used: CLX ART 6 years old vs 15A 2 years old

    Hey I know this is tough decision as both will bring you years of joy. You will probably second guess yourself on either choice. Make sure the CLXs are in good condition. There's not a dumb or bad question to ask the seller. :guitar:

    buying used: CLX ART 6 years old vs 15A 2 years old

    Hey..I'll chime in as I was in this position just last Fall. But I was buying new. Heard both...For me it was clear. CLX. The 15's no doubt are amazing. Truly. Get these & you'll be more than happy. BUT; the CLX has a way of taking the music to a larger level. I have never felt so...

    Thoughts ? ................

    Who said I had "super expensive" cables? Hmm trying to flame away? Just sayin' :ROFL: BTW, I see you have an Shunyata Power Conditioner. What benefit is this? :) And the audio quest cables? Why not Wal Mart interconnects? This topic just brings out some unfortunate things and some...

    Thoughts ? ................

    Yeah there can be so much passion on these discussions. I can only attest for the trade shows I've been to AND more importantly in my home and other homes. Cables do make a big difference. Some connections more than others. BUT I wish it weren't so :) I would have more $$ in my account. My...

    Front Wall Diffusion vs. Absorption - A Case Study

    Great thread Rich. And nice comments from the members. Fairly new owner of CLX Art speakers. And dual 212 subs. :) BTW, I LOVE IT! :) At Axpona I purchased sets of the CIK corner bass traps with scatter plates. I think I said that correctly. I have been using some DIY absorption panels for...

    Hey Mike, Well I am GOING! :) Looking forward to seeing all these first rate exhibitors and showrooms. And to just sit and listen. I am also looking forward to getting to talk to the guys who actually designed this stuff. And to hear them explain so passionately about what they created AND why...

    Is the Martin Logan brand declining?

    I love Apple products but the iPod crowd helped kill audio :) :) Well 2 channel as you know certainly has made a big comeback but truth is it can be expensive and not many dealers stock stuff to truly demo. Long gone are the days where you had your neighborhood dealer with about 10 rooms of...

    Mike, being at your house and listening to your wonderful system inspired me! Tomorrow is THE day! CLX art & dual 212 subs will be arriving. :) Thank you for allowing me to invade your home and spend the day listening. You have the best 2 channel setup I've ever heard. Thank you!

    System #504 (Expression ESL 13A)

    Looks GREAT Mike! I have a pretty good knowledge of Mike's home cinema as I flew up there back in late October to hear his AWESOME CLX/Bricasti setup. That was amazing & the best 2 channel audio I've ever heard. You can see my posted thoughts here :)...
