Martin Logan Tweaks / Upgrades
Hi!
I read an article before with tweaks or ways to improve the sound of Magnepans, but I can't find any advice or ways to upgrade Martin Logan speakers.
I have the Martin Logan Vista's. They sound amazing and they definitely dont need tweaking, but I love messing around with hardware haha. If ever I decide to try and tweak my speakers, are there any recommended tweaks I can do?
Also, do replacing the original ML power cords for the speakers do any good? Does that make the sound quality out of the speakers better or should I just stick with the original power cords?
Thanks,
Shawn

I have CLX and the have a vertical brace from the base along the entire outside edge of the panel, so the 'dowel' tweak makes sense to me. I also suggest/agree adjusting vertical angle makes a significant difference in the sound. You need to experiment with the angle based on your taste, listening height and distance from the panels. The MLO site has several schematics for the X-over (I doubt you will get anything from ML directly, I have tried) http://www.martinloganowners.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?77-ML-Schematics Here is a link to some upgrades for CLXs that I have participated in (not the model that you have, but the concepts still apply) http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/planars-exotics/179196-martin-logan-clx-mods.html |
