| Linn LP-12 still competitive with the very best? I would say that Linn is no longer competitive with some of the top contenders out there. | |
| The best "imaging" speakers? My friends Evolution Acoustics MM2's are the finest speakers I've ever experienced. Breathtaking transparency that make speakers disappear, total coherency, reach out and touch midrange, real bass, pristine highs and wide open soundstage with grea... | |
| Grand Prix Monaco review in new Stereophile- OUCH I really felt compelled to comment regarding the less than stellar stereophile review especially since I am one of the very few people that has spent some quality time listening to the Grand Prix Table. I found it very interesting that Fremers re... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? I was over at my friends (dealers) place and helped him set up his Evolution Acoustics MM2 speakers. They are georgeous and build quality is incredible. I came back 1 month later after they were pretty much broken in and I must say that it was the... | |
| Harbeth vs. Tyler Bartokfan - I did not say that the Tylers are not musical. I'm just saying how they sounded compared to the Harbeths. The Harbeths are very special speakers in my opinion. As far as Sally Reynolds, who cares what she has to say. I would never buy ... | |
| Harbeth vs. Tyler I have heard both Tylers and Harbeths. The Tylers have many very good qualities. They are very fast and clean but do not have the natural tonal qualities and musicality of the Harbeths. The Harbeths sound more like music to me. | |
| Most resolving, transparent amps. The finest amplification I ever head was the dartzeel amp and pre-amp combo. Nothing I have ever head compares. Keep in mind that I am partial to tubes and dartzeel is transistors. | |
| Warmer sounding CD Players? Check out the Consonance line. Some are on the warmer side but are also nicely transparent with superb sonics. | |

| How about using a Denon AVR5800 with Martin Logans Hi,I have the ML SL3's for the frontd and about to purchase Scenerio's for rear and Cinema for center. I just audiotioned the Rotel RMB1075 amp and Rotel RSP976 pre-processor at a local dealer with these speakers...outstanding sound and considerab... | |
| Anthem CD-1 tube upgrade? I also own the Anthem CD1. There is an upgrade from SF available....check the website......The piece I purchased via Audiogon has this upgrade...worth every penny! | |
| Tube Amp for Martin Logan SL3 3 I drive my SL3's with a pair of Classe' DR9's running in mono. Solid State reliability with a touch of tube sound....plenty of power (1,100 watts/2ohms) too! | |
| Classe preamps I have older classe' DR9 amp and DR6 pre-amp (purchased via audiogon)and they are built like tanks and I believe sound far superior than the newer classe' gear. |
