Sean, I have the Martin Logan Odysseys which replaced the Ascents.I ran a Pass Labs X250 with both and still have it for the Odysseys. I called Martin Logan the Other day to ask about amp's and the new Parasound JC-1 and they told me THAT they have not ordered or heard the Parasound JC-1 on there speakers. When i told them people were saying that the company ( Martin Logan ) had these amps on order they said that they do NOT have them on order at all, and didn't know that much about them?? They did by the acknowledge the other amps i had mentioned and even gave one a compliment?? Just A FYI.
What kind of power wakes up electrostatic speakers
Is it wpc, high current, both or what? I've been aud-itioning amps with the Final Electrostatic 0.3's (86 db sensitivity). The manufacturer suggests a minimum of 50 wpc to get them going. So far, I've tried a Nakamichi Stasis (150wpc) and an Electrocompaniet AW250DMB(250 wpc).With both,the speakers sounded dull, yet the Parasound HCA 3500 (250wpc & high current)made them sing sweet as can be.
Could somebody be kind enought to explain to me how this stuff works. I need to purchase an amp to drive the Final 0.4's (the big brother to the 0.3's). I'd love to know what
to look for.
