Martin Logan Tweaks / Upgrades
And here's a biggie I forgot about. In case you don't know. Darken the room, sit in you listening chair and shine a torch from the top of your head to each speaker so you get the reflection of it in the panel. Each panel the refection should be one third from the inside edge and at mid panel in height. Then do the dowel/blutak trick. Cheers George |
pokey77 No it's no Mona Lisa, but it's the single most improving tweak you can do to a pair of ML's. It's like having great two way bookshelves and sticking them on the worst wobbly stands. Then hearing them on the most solid rigid one you can get. The first thing you'll notice is the image, then the depth and the dynamics. ML's ESL panels wobble back and fro way too easy, even my Monoliths which have a frame all the way round. Cheers George |
Best tweak I made to all my ML's was to just lightly wedge a 1/2" diameter dowel rod from the back of the top of the speaker to the back wall with blutack on each end (to hold it in place) to make the ESL panel ridged, as it does flap around in the breeze a bit back and forward, did wonders for the imaging/placement and depth visualisation.
