I have owned the Aerius (still do) - the Quest Z and the SL 3 - I now have the Odysseys which seem more balanced -it is hard to beat ML's in the price range for speakers that sound good at all volume levels and still fill the room when you stand up. Go for it.
ML reQuest/ SL3 Owners: Seeking Advice
I am moving from a small to a larger room (16'x28") and am considering buying a full range speaker. I have leaned towards panels and in the past have owned Quads and Magnepans. Also,I want to keep my ARC LS25 and VT100MKII (which I recently have been in the process of auditioning with the reQuests,SL3's, and Vandersteen Sig 3's). I really like the reQuests in my relatively brief auditions and am curious about current ML owners' long-term satisfaction with M.L.'s. Would you buy them again?
