Magnepan vs. Martin Logan


I have heard both of these companies speakers, but not in the same room, nor on the same day. So I liked both a lot, but could someone who has more listening experience please describe the audible differences of the two technologies?
I have a McCormack DNA .5 amp (120 wpc) Will this be sufficient to drive them?

Thanks... John

finally i hear someone else who likes their Aerius i! i always hear criticism about these speakers, but i really really love them. i have yet to hear a box speaker that i prefer (and i have heard box speakers costing 3x as much as the aerius).

but, i also live in a small apartment, and like to play music at moderate and sometimes low levels. Zen-- you're right on; the ML sounds fast. i would also say it sounds very unrestricted / "free", with a clarity that hypnotizes me. and i have never felt like the bass doesn't match the panel.

maybe i don't know what i'm missing... if so, than ignorance is bliss! :)
