As a former, very happy SL3 owner that migrated to Quad ESL63 (plus subwoofer) I have always wondered about ML Summits being next natural step up. I have a small room (fine with SL3), a nice VTL ST150 valve amp and listen to a broad range of music. Any thoughts on relative merits if the Summits...

hi folks, looking for some advice. Opportunity possibly knocks to buy a pair of these lovely speakers, but they are sold as seen and one speaker is faulty. it is described by seller as ‘one of the speakers is producing a static noise in the top right hand side’ I would not be able to afford new...

looking for some expert views from the forum I have always hankered after a full range CLS and now a CLS1 has come up. Question I have is what panel is fitted? see pic) It doesn’t look the same as martin logan website - maybe panel has been replaced at some point? My 2nd question is, will the...

hi all ML experts! I have the chance of a vintage ARC VT60 power amp (50-60 Watts, 6550 Valves) to power the panels on my ML SL3's (bass is handled separately via SS amp) I currently have a Kora Jupiter Power Amp (40-50W and EL84 tubes) which works pretty well in my small room at moderate...

Any thoughts on E.A.R. 834T hybrid integrated ? Thinking of trying one out on my martin logan panels (bi-amped - 834T would be feeding panel only) As a fan of tubes, hoping it might be best of both worlds on a fairly demanding low impedance load There is a review that gave a glowing...

looking for your expert advice. I have a pair of nice SL3 in my small, rectangular dedicated listening room (2.3m/9’ by 4.6m/18’) The SL3 work really well back 1m from at narrow end of room, only 4” from sides with a sub taking care of <80hz duties. Listening positionis basically at apex of near...

Been looking lovingly at a used pair of Prodigy's recently. They are over 2x more expensive than the used value of my SL3's. The room is 5.5m x 2.8m and I'd be using a sub too with logans placed at narrow end of room as far into the room as i need. Would be an almost nearfield triangle...

Are there any other Logan panels that could be retro-fitted to SL3's ? I was guessing Ascent and Ascent i might work, anything else from newer models ?

hi everyone, I am tempted to move to a used pair of Odysseys - but only if they were a significant upgrade to my very nice SL3's I run with a decent SVS sub so any <80Hz bass improvements aren't a significant factor for me. The Odysseys are a large chunk of cash more than the resale value of...

I have a thin, perfectly rectangular room, no treatments, all smooth surfaces, suspended wooden floor - couldn't be worse right ? It is 2.8m wide by 5.6m long - SL3's are about 0.5m into the room at narrow end. Despite that my system sounds pretty good but bass has always been boomy no matter...

Looking for advice on a budget preamp (around £400 - used) to match up with my Sunfire 300x2 power amp + SL3's I had been thinking about tubes to take the edge of the slightly clinical but wonderful Sunfire. I would prefer a pre that will change the sound rather than be simply being a neutral...

hi folks, looking for some help I think I need a new HT board on one of a pair of Aerius i's as the panel is very quiet and if I move swap boards the fault moves with the board. I have been quoted an eye watering £300 to replace the HT board in the UK :wtf: Is there any other place I can buy...

I want to bi-amp my SL3's but doing it passively is tough due to mismatched amps I also have a subwoofer in the system running anything <80Hz due to room issues (long story !) I am using an Arcam AVR350 as a pre and bass/sub controller driving the SL3's via a Sunfire 300x2 amp (also have a...

Any thoughts on a Sunfire 300 x2 (non signature) amp to drive a pair of SL3's ? I have read some good and not so good stuff about this amp and that it is very tolerant of the low impedance that the ES panels can present. I am using a sub <80hz so it doesn't need to work too hard at the bottom...

Looking to upgrade my old amp to a pair of power / integrated amps to bi-amp my Martin Logan SL3's. I prefer a smoother, musical style of amp - harsh, clinical and 'hifi' is not what I am after My Puresound A30 valve integrated has easily been my favourite amp driving my old Proac 2.5 to give...

Noob question so apologies in advance! Can I disconnect my SL3 woofer and use a subwoofer instead ? Goal is to improve bass response by being able to position sub in a better location in my room. How do I handle crossover ? Do I just need a sub that has a response of more than 250hz? Any...

Total newbie to ML speakers but loving the older pair of SL3's I picked up recently.:rocker: I read a lot about ES panels and how they need replaced after a certain period of time or they deteriorate badly in performance. Question is...how will I know ? These are the only ML's I have ever...

Hi everyone, Now the proud owner an fine pair of SL3's and quite superb they sound too ! Looking forward to learning a bit more about ML, how to optimise set up and connect with other ML owners :music:
