| Is Martin Logan goin to Big Box stores? Theres no reason for starting this thread other than to solicit disparaging remarks on a brand that has demonstrated excellence in design, engineering, production and customer service, year after year, even while its low end models have been sold... | |
| Is Martin Logan goin to Big Box stores? Imagine a high quality, innovative, state-of-the-art, designed and built-in-America, piece of industrial art sold at Best Buy or a related store what a shame, eh? If you really give a hoot that a sales dweeb doesnt remember your name, you mu... | |

| XLR or Rca's for Bryston 4B ST/BP 25 Pre Balanaced connections are preferable for long runs. At one meter save some money and go with RCA. | |
| Better power cord for Bryston Stay with the stock cord. Nothing to be gained from snake oil fantasy's.If you need proof, have a friend swap cords without telling you - as in blind testing - you'll never tell.The reason so many are afraid of bliond testing is that they'll reali... | |
| Better power cord for Bryston Tvad is correct. I have a 4Bst - Changes are in your imagination. If you want it to sound better it will. Have a friend change in/out without your knowledge - you won't know when it's in or out. Don't buy into the BS. Save $ and spend on something... | |

| What other hobby or hobbies do you have? I guess you could call alpine skiing a hobby, but I consider it a religion. Upcoming religious experiences- Dec - Utah (powder), Jan - Vail (back bowls), Feb - Squaw (sunshine)/Whistler(not), March - Vail/A-Basin (50th birthday present to myself),... | |
| experience w/ Auralex room treatment I don't agree with Seasoned regarding the colors. Both the purple and the cranberry look pretty sharp depending on your wall color of course. Also note that you have more mundane (and also much more expensive choices) if you look on their site.I t... | |
| Do you care about the LOOK??? Martin Logan - Sound as good as they look. I have both black and cherry rails for my Ascents. When I want an awesome looking piece of mechanical sculpture, the black rails go on, when something more mellow is called for, the cherry rails work well. | |
| Special birthday audio gift to yourself? My 5-0 is coming in March. I already know what I'm doing and have advised significant others in case they want to be a part - 1) Levinson 333. I know other things may be different / better, but I always wanted one.2) Breitling Aerospace (it's a wa... | |
| CD Redbook versus DVD Audio Check out the Grateful Dead's American Baeuty on DVD-A. It's almost like hearing it for the first time.Competing format's and unnecesary complexity (for the averge consumer) is what has killed (or put it on life support) the format. A shame. |
