Hello grislybutter .....thank you for your response but what would have been more helpful and the main reason for my post is if someone had an answer to my question. So, let's go down that road instead. Thank you in advance.  

Hello larryi - thank you very much and just what I was looking for. I think Audio Den and or Vanna LTD was showing them. A friend of mine who did go to the CAF,  noted that they sounded  ''flat '' and uninspiring. It would be of my opinion that the Quintet's which were not demonstrated and from what I have heard, can have a little more lower end bass impact than the Parker Trio Diamond's which were being shown. My concern with both of these speakers from Marten at that price point ,can they get down and boogie and play rock and roll ? I don't mean rattle the walls and floors but have a good mid to lower bass presentation. They are both great for light jazz etc ......what are your thoughts as I have not heard their '' new'' Parker series as of yet.  

I am the OP of this thread and I ended up buying Verity Audio's new Arindal speakers.I did not go with the Marten Line large in part due to the total lack of interest from the US Importer ; Vanna LTD who never returned my phone calls inquiring on their product line. I finally was able to locate a US Dealer who is located in Chicago and was met with total arrogance by the owner when I inquired about this line of speakers. I refuse to do business with that type of dealer and him in particular who I felt I was doing him a favor by buying the speakers from him........total jerk. During this time I came into contact with a gentleman who was selling a pair of mint Marten Mingus Diamonds at a very competitive [price compared to the new Marten's I was looking at. I did not buy them for the fear which could be viewed as self proclaimed that if there was ever a need for any repair or if I had any issues with the speakers, that I would not have any support here in the US from anybody. That was a definite concern of mine. Too bad as they are a good speaker with the right equipment. FWIW ; I worked with Paul Manos who is the US Distributor for Verity and was nothing short of professional, courteous and returned as well as initiated multiple phone conversations during the purchase. So look into Verity if you are looking at this type of speaker. Stay well and safe all.....
