Very excited about my first ML system. After much back and forth between Purity, Motion12s and EM-ESLs, I ended up ordering the EMs.
I remember seeing and hearing MLs for the first time (don't remember which model they were) 12 years ago @ Magnolia Hifi in Bellevue, WA, being driven by big and cool looking Mcintosh amps. I loved the sound, but quickly filed them under someday-maybe after looking at the price tag.
When I started looking for a new system, I saw a pair of EMs at BestBuy and was hooked again. Loved that clarity and the open sound stage. The Motion 12s were great as well, but they kept pulling my attention to the speaker boxes, while with EMs it was as if the sound was coming from the empty space between the speakers, with the vocalist standing in front of all the instruments right in the middle. Loved it.
Looking forward to enjoying all my music again. They should be here Monday!
