| Amp for Martin logan CLS Originals In the famous words of Robert Duvall:"I love the smell of Napalm in the mornin', and the sound of vindication in a public forum."Well, perhaps I've taken more than a few liberties with the quote, but you get the gest I'm sure ! ; )Neil thanks for ... | |
| Amp for Martin logan CLS Originals The evidence is in: The ML memo supports Nsgarch 'specs completely. Is it possible Ralph has been misquoted here, for clearly Nsgarch's specs are dead on accurate with ML's memo.Is this like one of those Bill Clinton definitions where there's more... | |
| Favorite Pianists Actually Keith Jarrett was mentioned with Bill Evans near the top. He's one of my favs so I looked for his name first. Not bad company those two pianists could keep, although I doubt Bill would put up with Keiths crap! :) | |
| Perhaps we should stick with midfi... It's interesting how this thread dried up and all the naysayer's headed for the hills once the supposed "troll" produced a photograph of the $60k system. These forum groups are so funny!Back on topic, Gonglee3 brings up a point that I've been expl... | |
| Any vets among the Audiophiles here? Any dissatisfied vets among Audiophiles who hear, and see, what's been done to this country this past generation could be equally as great a discussion other than "I bought my first Sansui receiver at the Yokuska Navy Exchange during my tour of du... | |
| Favorite Pianists Gene Harris, I second that emotion! What I'd give to possess his talent. I don't think there's ever been a player who projected more soul and feel good music than Funky Gene! RIP Mr. Harris... | |
| Any vets among the Audiophiles here? Well its only been my observation but, how does one separate the vet from the politics when the politician uses the vet to serve their own selfish aim every chance they get? Might we as a country begin to question our governments decision to wage ... | |
| Any vets among the Audiophiles here? I served 4 years right out of high school like many of my generation. It was either enlist in a branch of my choosing or be drafted. I didn't agree with the war, again like many of my generation. I still don't agree with the war. No disrespect to ... | |
| Best used floorstander on the FS forum under $2500 Nadda. ML Vista's get my money every time. B&W can't approach the presentation of the Vista's. Flame on, but it's true. | |
| Amp for Martin logan CLS Originals Celtic66 is dead on accurate. I owned CLSiiz's and used a vast variety of SS amps, namely Plinius SA250, BAT VK500, Pass Aleph 2 monos, but the best overall performance I experienced was after mating the CLS's to a pair of Manley Ref 450 mono's, t... | |

| Best Late Night Low Volume Speaker Hawthorne Audio OB's driven by a simple 10 watt SET 300b integrated. Hands down, the most crystal clear presentation...I know because I'm having to listen late at night while the my other half is sleeping. | |
| Personal speaker evolution I find it interesting where the original poster advanced from buying new to used. I just bought my first ever pair of brand new ML's, but only because they'd been purchased by the original owner and were never unsealed. Hand me downs is the way to... | |
| Electrostat - M-L; Quad or Soundlab - reliable I've owned every former model ML produced: Aerius I's, SL3's, Requests, Monolith III's, and now Vista's, and I've yet to experience a single reliability over close to 20 years of use. I'm perplexed by the "reliability issue" posed by the author. | |
| How many 'listen outside of the box' design? As the owner of both OB's and Planar's I thought it might be interesting to hear what other non box listener's have experienced. I imagine many of you, like myself, ventured away from box designs for a reason...namely the more lifelike presentatio... |
