    Sub suggestions to go with ML EMs

    Beanbag, my point was that maybe the debate should have continued elsewhere instead of hijacking this thread. Unless you see nothing wrong with that, in which case I can't help ya.

    Sub suggestions to go with ML EMs

    Just so's ya know, you two fellers debating on my OP isn't really helping. Shame, because you guys know a lot more than me about audio. Just sayin'.

    Sub suggestions to go with ML EMs

    Just to give an update, looks like I'm gonna go with Power Sound Audio's XS15. I had a nice email exchange with Tom Vodhanel and that pretty much sealed the deal. It was previously a toss-up between that, the HSU VTF-2MK4, and the SVS SB-2000.

    Maybe you should start a new thread? Probably get more responses.

    I assume I should plug the port before running XT32, right?

    Thanks, JonFo. You're the third person to recommend plugging the port so I think that suggestion warrants some merit. I'll also read through that AVS guide as well.

    Sub suggestions to go with ML EMs

    As of tomorrow I will be running an Onkyo TX-NR818 which has Audyssey MultEq XT32. Currently I'm using a Marantz SR5004 but it only comes with MultEq. Budget is $400-$650. I will wait to see what the XT32 does with the Bic F12 tomorrow. Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised. Someone on another...

    Sub suggestions to go with ML EMs

    Room is 13x13, laminate floor with 5x7 area rug. Looking at the stage, the right wall opens to the kitchen (9' opening, centered on 13) and I have the sub caddy-corner to the right/front wall on the right side of the stage. It is the only place I can put it but I can face it straight forward...

    Sub suggestions to go with ML EMs

    Seriously considering the HSU VTF-2 mk4 or the SVS SB12-NSD. Right now I have a BIC America F12 and since my upgrade to Electromotions this sub is the weak link. Bass is boomy and bloated. Looking for a sub that goes great with music and movies. Musical enough to portray accurate acoustic bass...

    Emotiva?

    ^This. I miss the olden days when you could go to the nearest audio store and spend hours auditioning new equipment. Alas, save for a few Magnolia Home Theater departments inside a few of the Best Buys, there isn't many more options than reading the reviews and taking your chances. I believe...

    Emotiva?

    Well, when I heard them three years ago the ElectroMotions became my dream speakers. Since I was happy with my Emotiva UPA-200 I decided to stay with that brand to upgrade to something with more, cleaner power, so I went with the XPA-3. The price point of that amp is a good fit for me.

    ML owners: Spend my money for me!

    After my recent acquisition of ML EM's for fronts, ML Motion 8 for center, an Emo XPA-3 amp and an Oppo BDP-103, I'm looking for areas to improve my sound. I'm happy with that front stage lineup so I don't want to change anything. Movies/music is probably 50/50. Here's the rest of the system...

    Emotiva?

    Ok, I guess there's no Emo love around here. :)

    Emotiva?

    Along with my new ElectroMotions which are due to arrive tonight I ordered an Emotiva XPA-3. Does anyone have experience with that combination of amp/speakers? Thanks.

    Just upgraded to my dream front stage. Psyched!

    I've been wanting these mains ever since hearing them three years ago and I thought I'd never be able to get them. I thought, "one day..." That one day is finally here, and I'm psyched! Just ordered the following: 2-Martin Logan ElectroMotions 1-Martin Logan Motion 8 Center 1-XPA-3 Emotiva 3...

    New member here with a dilemma. I have a desire...

    Thanks for the advice and the welcome. I may wind up going the bestbuy card route. I'll have three years to pay it off with no interest and I'd probably put down a significant amount in cash to bring the monthly payments down. I figure that with EM's in the house, I'll probably never need...

    They all have pre-outs and are all 4 ohm stable, I believe.

    New member here with a dilemma. I have a desire...

    I'm in the Babylon area. I kind of resigned myself to waiting for the EM's. I'm looking at better AVRs right now that will give me more options when I finally get the EM's: Onkyo TX-NR709 Marantz SR5004 Pioneer VSX-1121-K Does any one stand out over the other? They seem to all offer the...

    Hi, gang. I joined here because I'm currently in the market for ML EMs and need some advice. I currently own Polk Monitor 60s for fronts but one fateful day I went to Magnolia Home Theater and auditioned ML EM's and unfortunately they ruined me for box speakers forever. :( Now I have to have...
