Martin Logan CLS "Buyer's Guide" Question
I think you're probably better off waiting also.  The right pair will come around.  The last couple pair of  IIZ's that I've seen were around $1200-$1500 dollars in excellent condition.You're quite welcome and if you have any other questions or ne... 
Martin Logan CLS "Buyer's Guide" Question
Those serial numbers would make them original CLS electronics.  Can't be sure unless I saw pictures of the insides, if they were modified/updated or not.IMHO, the panels are already do for replacement.  You could sure use them, but you wouldn't be... 
Martin Logan CLS "Buyer's Guide" Question
@parabolic...you mentioned above that the speakers had upgraded II electronics.  The panels do seem to be the I series.  If you can get the serial numbers on the electronics, I can tell you what they are, unless the serial numbers were never chang... 
Martin Logan CLS "Buyer's Guide" Question
@parabolic...the serial number you list would make them replacement panels made in September 1996. They were the 15th replacement panel made that month, (according to the serial number decoder).If the serial number is correct, then they are the CL... 
Martin Logan CLS "Buyer's Guide" Question
I was a Martin Logan dealer for many years and currently use a pair of CLSIIA’s as one of my reference speakers.When I was a dealer, I always had a pair of the older model on demo when the new model came out. I was able to A/B them side by side.Th... 
How many grams weight for mm cartridge?
I doubt that it still has the original stylus on it. I bet it’s been replaced. I would try 1.4 grams. That’s a good compromise. If you don’t mind spending $50, order a stylus from Ed Saunders. I’m using one on my V15 Type III and it’s stellar. If ...

How many grams weight for mm cartridge?
Would be nice to know the exact Shure model you have. Most of the V15 type series, (II, III or IV) track best around 1.25 and some of the replacement styli for these track best at 1.50 grams.If it happens to be a V15 VxMR, then 1.7 would be just a...

How many grams weight for mm cartridge?
@chakster...there are actually (2) pdf’s on Vinyl Engine. The first one, (Farsch) says 1.2 grams across the board, except for the F9P which is 2.5 grams.The second pdf, (Alec124c41) shows the .5 to 2.0 range.http://www.vinylengine.com/library/grac... 
How many grams weight for mm cartridge?
You may never seen Grace F9 cartridges (F-9F, F-9L, F-9U, F-9D) tracking force range is 0.5 - 2g. I agree that 0.5 is too low, i would say 1g minimum. I was a Grace dealer for many years and have owned several of the Grace cartridges, (actual... 
How many grams weight for mm cartridge?
What cartridge do you have? Most carts will have a "range" of tracking force. I have always tracked most carts towards the higher end of that range.I have setup hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of turntables and have never seen a cart that track...

Transports: CEC TL5 vs. Audio Note CDT-Zero II?
Glad you are liking your new TL5.  IMHO, CEC makes one of the best transports out there. 
Is a Sub required for HT
I don't understand why you say integration for HT is difficult? I won't be using a sub in my 2-channel system. It's really not hard to add a sub to home theater.  2 channel yes, but HT is a walk in the park. I agree that the sub will make a movi...
