I can just imagine, Brandon! Unrecognizable, right? I have a friend with Aerius and I'm trying to get him to appreciate the difference. Great job! With active bass, it's also really handy to have access to the bass level control (bass amp input level) for adjusting bass preference or correcting...

DanR, I attached a combo of the Odyssey bass xo and bass drivers' specs. This spec sheet describes both the front 8 inch woofer and the rear 10 inch woofer as being paper cone, but iirc later Odysseys used the awesome 10 inch aluminum cone from Ascent i? So if yours have the aluminum cone 10...

Attached is simplified Prodigy bass xo with some of my notes.

RobertD, here's the beginnings of going active bass on Prodigy: https://www.martinloganowners.com/threads/monoblock-amps-with-ml-speakers-advantage-or-not.18710/#post-195608

Sing it, brother!

The XO will still work, as it's also an 8-ohm woofer. But I expect the counterbore will need to be enlarged for the bigger, later basket to fit in the counterbore for the older Eminence woofer...

Stay sealed! Go active XO on the bass only.

About 10 years ago when I had SL3, I dreamed about how to stiffen up the cabinets with external bracing and even adding volume with a bump-out on the rear....

Although it's currently sold out at Madisound, this ~$100 8-ohm Scanspeak 22W/8534G00 is today's PnP woofer replacement for the Aerius i. It has the same basket OD of 225mm like the original Vifa woofer. https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/approx-8-woofers/scanspeak-22w/8534g-discovery-8-woofer/

Yerp! Vacuum often! Put on your magnifiers so you can see what you're doing. I've seen my Ascenti panel have visible tiny sparking from a bug landing on it. No damage so far, but it is bug season again. Plus the spider droppings from above are worse than vaporized bug, so I have a cardboard...

DAC, schmac, you'll want a new one next year anyway. Grab that used Pass INT-25 on USAudiomart while you can.

If it ain't Pass it ain't s#!t.

Foam. Alright, it's the best space age foam from 3M, but it's still foam. Foam with a light glue holding together a structural sandwich that's now a quarter century old? Foam. Those Gen1 panels with the foam spars are just doomed in the long run by that porous foam that eventually builds up so...

It's an over-voltage protection device, discussed here: Martin Logan SL3 crossover

erm, the thread title.....

I hope you can find a way to work them into your decor, esp if you already have other ESLs. A couple of years ago at Burning Amp I was boasting to Nelson Pass about my Ascenti and squeezing 20W of class A from his Adcom 5200, and he said that he had a huge roll of film for ESLs and that I should...

Agree it must be an in-betweener of some kind, as even the spelling is FUBAR. You can turn the pin-receiver hardware around, so that the rails tap down to lock, up to release, so they don't undo themselves under gravity. Because that's how these eventually fail: the panel slips down and hangs on...

On MLs of those years ~2000, the LED is on when the HV supply is on, so something is tripping the Music Sensor and keeping yours turned on, or the Music Sensor is not working correctly and the speaker is staying on indefinitely. There are a handful of electrolytic caps on that PS board, some of...
