| Class D amp recomendations please Yay been waiting to see what Bel Canto comes out with next. | |
| How do you decide what your next upgrade will be? That's a tough one. No easy answer. | |
| Show Us Your Listening Room Art Hmm not having a lot of luck trying to copy my photos into posts. Oh well. | |
| Are Ohm Walsh's a step up from Martin Login Electro Motion ESL's I added a pic to my virtual system that shows Ohms on Subdude pads in family room with placement not too far off from OPs. https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/9811 ...and yes it sounds good with coherent soundstage even on that chair right u... | |
| Are Ohm Walsh's a step up from Martin Login Electro Motion ESL's I have absorption panels on walls at first reflection points with my larger Ohms which are highly tuned in. Smaller ones in family room sound great with no special treatments. I would assert Ohms are hard to beat for easy placement for good sound ... | |
| Are Ohm Walsh's a step up from Martin Login Electro Motion ESL's See this diagram that shows dispersion pattern of Ohm Walsh CLS driver and how levels are attenuated in wall facing directions to avoid early reflections and allow placement closer to walls and corners. https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/9... | |
| Are Ohm Walsh's a step up from Martin Login Electro Motion ESL's Hey Doug you know the Ohm Walsh are not true Omni right? If they were definitely not in corners. But they are designed to go closer to walls than many. Still I have never landed on a corner placement with my Ohms by choice . Can work but may not b... | |
| Are Ohm Walsh's a step up from Martin Login Electro Motion ESL's Auralec Subdude just make sure big enough for those MLs. Available off Amazon not expensive and should be returnable. I’m thinking it would help clean up bass that can also Obscure midrange detail if needed. Hardwood floor coverings especially on ... | |
| Dustcover Blues @mijostyn I have not but frankly never directly compared. I’ve had the Linn for years and no issue. Others prior perhaps. I should mention table is in front of and to the left of speakers and there is also a sub about 5 feet away firing in its dir... | |
| Dustcover Blues @mijostyn Linn Axis table with Denon Dl103r cart on low profile solid cherry table at foundation level, concrete foundation with thin dense carpet and pad. See my system photo. | |
| Are Ohm Walsh's a step up from Martin Login Electro Motion ESL's Btw if it were me I would want to try some isolation pad under the MLs from the look of the floor. Not a big room so smaller Ohms would probably do it were you to go that way. Iso pads under those as well probably from the looks. | |
| Are Ohm Walsh's a step up from Martin Login Electro Motion ESL's Could be just what the doctor ordered. I coveted Quad ESL sound but bigger and more dynamic and that is what the Ohm Walshes delivered. Plus it’s a no brainer regarding Ohm sweet spot versus ESL. | |
| Dustcover Blues If the table is subject to vibrations, dust covers could easily exacerbate the problem. Best to avoid vibrations reaching the table always but if not possible and dustcover exacerbates things just take it off when playing. Dust cover vibration is ... | |
| Tube integrated amp recommendations Personally I will not buy an integrated amp without a headphone capability. I have a Bel Canto c5i and a $100 pair of Grado s80e phones with that are hard to beat. | |
