I have always loved both the looks and sound of Martin Logan Speakers since I first saw them at Audio Perfection in Minneapolis in the early 1990's. I ended up purchasing a pair of Magnepan 1.5's as they were as close to the sound of the Martin Logans as I could get on my limited budget. Years later ended up getting a great deal on a pair of Aerius i's, which I later sold when I was able to purchase a pair of Aeon i's at a good price. Due to the limited space of the rooms where I always ended up placing my audio systems, I have tried unsuccessfully several times to get away from Martin Logans and purchase "box" speakers (I even made several attempts at buying Magnepan 1.6's and owned a pair of MMG's). However, when I have compared them directly to my Martin Logan's, I just could not get myself to purchase anything else as the Martin Logan's just do so much right for the type of sound and music that I love. I recently ended up purchasing a pair of original CLSes which IMO sound great.
