Yes, Martin Logans were considered BORING by my wife 20+ years ago (Monolith IIIs and reQuests). She complained about the lack of dynamics and bass. She said pop music sounded emasculated. I replaced them with Focus Signatures. They play every type of music quite well with great ancillary equipment. I've read negative comments about them (particularly from people with too small rooms). They need some room to play well. Otherwise get my other pair (with punchier bass-Signature IIIs).
Ears hurt when listening after changing speakers
For years I had multiple models of Maggies and Martin Logan speakers. I could play them very loud with no problems with my ears. A few months ago I purchased the Rockport Aviors and now when I listen at moderate to high levels my ears start to hurt. Anyone one else experience this when changing speakers and would like thoughts on how to resolve other than turning the volume down. I do love the Rockport.
