Martin Logan Prodigy with Sonic Frontiers Power


I recently acquired a pair of ML Prodigy speakers. I was running a set of Vandi 3As with a Sonic Frontiers Power 2 tube amp (110W/ch) before the purchase.

When I run the Power 2 to the MLs, though they have a much more WOW sound than the Vandis, I feel the setup lacks midrange at lower volume. I would have thought being both were characteristic of great mids that the mating of them would have been ideal but I am thus far not 100% happy.

When I turn up the volume things start to fall into place, but then it is too loud. :) Media format of choice is vinyl but CD seem to make this combo more alive. Also, the set up sounds a bit distorted and vague at times.

Comment? MLs being under powered? SF Power 3 monos needed? 220W/ch

I have the ML Request and not the Prodigy; however, the best amp I have used so far and still use is the Plinius SA100 III. It is only 125 watts, but that is not an issue as this amp has no problems driving the Request. Consider one of the Plinius amps and you will not be dissatisfied. Good luck.
