Alta Audio speakers--anyone heard them? TwoleftearsI have the Titanium Hestia’s for almost a year now and they are an awesome speaker. They replaced the Martin Logan Renaissance 15A’s because of their musicality, transparency, tonal balance and soundstaging capabilities. I will say the... | |
IS THE MARTIN LOGAN Renassance 15A worth the $10,000 higher cost than the Expression 13A Samgar2, You can't go wrong with either speaker but with the size of your room the 15A's would be best. I had the 15A's in a 18 x 24 room and they sounded awesome. The 15A's have a bigger sound which is why i bought them and I liked the way th... | |
Speaker cables for Martin Logan's Thanks for the compliment on the system. Yeah when it comes to cables I do have limits - 14ft Pair of Oak $4700; 14ft pair of WEL $54,000 - Ouch. I'd have to buy my wife a MB Convertible or a few furs, diamond necklaces etc. to say ok to 54K f... | |
Speaker cables for Martin Logan's I did not compare the Redwood or WEL against the Oak. I moved up from the Rocket 88's and heard a major difference in sound quality. The cost for higher level AQ cables, especially when using a 14ft pair, well........... some of us have limits. | |
Speaker cables for Martin Logan's Speaking of the Renaissance I use AQ Oak between my ML Renaissance and ARC GS150 with great success. | |
Audio Research Ref 150se vs Ref75se on Martin Logan Renaissance 15a. I currently have the Renaissances driven by ARC's GS150 which is very similar to the Reference 150SE minus the meters. I LOVE the sound of the two together. Before the Renaissances I had the ML Montis driven by the Ref. 75 and was never enamored... | |
Would you go all 1 brand for electronics? I currently have all Audio Research gear including Reference 6 Preamplifier, GS 150 Power Amplifier, Reference 3 Phono Preamplifier and Reference CD9 Player/DAC. The synergism of ARC components has been very rewarding and has taken me to a place... | |
Music Server I agree with Grannyring and Swampwalker - call Neal at Sound Science, you want be disappointed and you get a lot for the money with his servers. Never thought Digital could sound this good. | |
Audio Research Ref 6 vs Ref 5 SE Elem79; You are absolutely correct the Reference 6 is a WOW, no a double wow compared to the 5SE. I have about 50 hours on mine and I am listening to music more and more. My wife's complaining on why I am not spending time with her - It is becau... | |
What used speaker would you buy with $20,000-$35,000 and why? Since I just purchased and received my dream 20K+ speakers – Martin Logan’s Renaissance ESL 15A’s. Let me be one of the first ESL 15A's owners to say – these are one of the BEST sounding speakers in the market place today and should be very well... | |
Amps which are Great, but either Unknown or Underpriced Prima Luna Dialogue Premium HP and non-HP Amplifiers and Integrated Amplifiers (My first experience with Prima Luna products was the Dialogue Premium HP Integrated Amplifier) are awesome. I recently upgraded from an Audio Research Reference 75 p... |
