    Tubes or Solid State

    Hello Tom, I use to drive my prodigy, monolith's and odyssey's with cary slam 100 monoblocks and never had an issue. I did read that the original Cary cad 120s had an issue driving low impedance speakers but cary corrected that with the upgraded mkii. Honestly I believe that any martin logan...

    Another Amp / Impedance / Bi-amp question

    Hello Mark, the sunfire cinema did a great job. I used 4 of the channels to drive the panels and the woofers. Remember the Sunfire is rated at 200 watts @ 8 ohms so if the sl3 are 4 ohm then the Sunfire will be outputting 400 watts respectively to each panel and woofer which is way more than...

    Sunfire signature 600 help

    Good morning Keith, I spoke with Greg at Nelion audio and decided to go with them. Their reviews are first rate. I will be sending my signature 600's to him in june. My only dilemma is if I want to send both at the same time which more that likely is what I will be doing. There is another shop...

    Great, thanks for the reply and the information. The more is listen to the Sunfire amplifiers the more I love them. How long ago was your refurb done? Did you notice a major improvement? Thanks again Tom

    Sunfire signature 600 help

    Hello to all, I recently purchased 2 Sunfire signature 600's on audiogon. These are the first generation with the attached power cord and 19" version. I must say that this is the first amplifier in a long time that I could hear a significant difference. They are replacing 2 threshold statis 2...

    Show me your pets!

    Hey H Hey Brandon, cute kitties. I had a rescue named TC (the cat) who was a Bengal mix. Here is Max and Bella. Best investment ever, in my opinion the gift that keeps on giving.

    A question for you

    I appreciate the advice and i will be changing the caps and anything else that can be done to a higher quality part. I also agree that this will be subjective but I believe the benefit even if it is small will be worth it. Thanks again.

    A question for you

    Hello Heyfey, was the cap replacement a significant improvement?

    A question for you

    I also would recommend replacing the panels. I have owned sequel 2, quest z, odyssey, monolith iii and finally Prodigy's. I have just the replaced the Prodigy's panels with new ones from martin logan at a cost of $2900. The set cost me $1250 for a used non working set that had one panel that I...

    Another member appreciating Martin Logan parts support who thinks pricing is realistic. Read why.

    Robert both you and amey01 have hit the nail on the head. The price of a set of new replacement panels is nothing compared to what is available in today's lineup.

    And another! I picked up a pair of Prodigy's used on ebay for $805 with one panel working and the other needed to be soldered. After soldering it worked okay but I knew it was not near how they should sound so i ordered new panels anyway. Used Prodigy's $805, $450 gas and traveling expenses...

    Tube monoblock recommendations

    I totally agree with you concerning ultralinear. I would A/B the two settings when I had a set of Primaluna HP monoblocks with both kt88 and kt150 tubes. I will get the mb300. I have read that review and a few others. Thanks for your input. Much appreciated and I'll keep you posted

    Tube monoblock recommendations

    Hey Brandon, thanks for the response. The more I thought about it the M125 look great but I am leaning towards the MB300. Don't laugh but hopefully the VTL's will be my last amplifiers. Going on 42 years of this audio quest!

    Tube monoblock recommendations

    I am looking at 2 pairs of MB300's, both have had some upgrades. One has the soft start done and the other has the triode tetode switch. I am leaning towards the one with the soft start since that upgrade is more expensive. Neither has the b+ fuse upgrade. The switch and the b+ is something I...

    Tube monoblock recommendations

    I totally agree, I probably will end up with MB300 delux to run the panels. The only thing stopping me is finding a local repair shop or if I can get a schematic i would do the upgrades myself. I am a sucker for seeing that glow, this is why I am hell bent on the MB300's or maybe cary slam 100...

    Hello Brad, no center channel just a 2 channel setup.

    Hello Robert, I am strictly running a 2 channel system. I am probably being a little too critical of the harshness because it is only on certain voices.
