Certainly not, timing can be a big factor however. Buying new gear,I have often found the best time to buy is in the spring, around the George Washington birthday sales. Places like to clear out all the stuff they did not sell in the previous year. Buying a few things at one time usually helps to sweeten the pot for youself as well. Good luck and good hunting.

I believe Tweeter now sells M-L. Sometimes they may have open box or discounts on new.

Just always buy your stuff on Audiogon.

You will always get great pricing and usually get equipment that is in good to excellent condition.

I've actually had better luck getting dealers to throw in other items for free than having them discount the particular item I'm buying. When I bought my CD player and integrated amp the dealer gave me a pair of Grado SR-60 headphones and didn't charge me sales tax. It worked out to an 18% discount.

My advice is find a Martin Logan dealer in your area and make nice with them. It may take some time, though. I know with my local dealer, it took me six months of buying things before the discounts starting rolling it. But, it was worth the wait.

Finding the right dealer will always have benefits such as discounts on gear.
