Logans and Heavy Metal?

My ML Sequels play metal just fine. Make sure you have a powerful amp with delivers CLEAN power very quickly.

check out newform research r645 - 91db/1w/1m

In my experience, the Aerius I's will sound good with all types of metal, as long as your amp is up to the task.. The audio shop's never have them set up right. An ARC VT100 is not enough, a minimum of 200 high quality(ARC,ML)watt's.

Since we've got some very different answers here, we obviously may have different standards. Since we partially covered what is "heavy", let's talk about what "loud" exactly is.

How about mentioning what SPL you consider to be "loud enough" to do metal at your LISTENING POSITION. I am talking about an extended period of "headbanging time" and not for just "one good tune". Sound must remain clean and uncompressed. Use "C" weighting and on the "slow" scale if using the RS SPL meter. This will give you a broadband average. S

Don't try to impress anyone with "I never listen this loud, BUT my system can do XXX db's" type of stuff. We're looking for REAL measurements on how you really listen. Since peaks can be quite high for momentary blasts, those DO NOT count. Please include the appr. distance from your speakers to the seat also. Sean

should listen at 110 db's to metal. with Martin Logan's expect breakage in two minutes or less at this level.
