    Reviews - what can be trusted?

    akm3, This song by Jennifer Warnes can exhibit easily unwanted resonances at her voice: Also this one by Rebecca Pidgeon: Concentrate at her voice, the bad resonances are evident. Happy listening!

    Reviews - what can be trusted?

    Hola akm3, Well I do understand your points of view, and I agreed with you in a certain way. But claiming that the new models are not an improvement at the bass performance, here I am not with you. Why not? Because with these models, you are able to adjust precisely the amount of bass energy...

    CLX: power cables

    Hola jazzfish, I don't want to convince you, this is an electrical fact! A good power cord (I have Transparent and custom made heavy gauge power cables) must handle easy at least 15A. This cable has enough current capability for most all power amplifiers on the marketplace. The panel drains...

    CLX: power cables

    Also, the charged stats are volume (level) dependant. If you play the music at the half of your normal listening level, they will last much more unplugged. Remember that to charged them back requires less than one second!! Do you still believe that a cable will do a difference when it uses...

    Issue with Sequel II's

    Hola Chippieboy, If you bought them one year ago, or two years, the panels have 5 year factory warranty. Just report the serial numbers of the panels, and that's all. Happy listening!

    CLX: power cables

    Hola Chicos, To have a constant charged will need only 0,041mA. This is nothing! The electrostatic speaker is a big capacitor. The entire diaphragm is bias with +-2000VDC. The stators, are modulated with the audio signal, which it is AC. This is how ML explain the electrostatic speaker...

    CLX: power cables

    Thanks my namesake Robert D, I have a question for the ones that believe that a better power cable might benefit the sound quality of the CLXs or CLSs model: Which component of your system drains from the Mains AC wall or Power AC Conditioner, less than 5 watts and for only less than a second...

    CLS II: countdown to sleep mode

    Fcel, What a wonderful speakers are the CLS, right?...for combo music are incredible. Voices are presented with such realism that you don't believe what you are hearing! I had all the CLSs models, my first was on 1987, in July. I was attending at Chicago Summer Consumers Electronic Show, and...

    CLX: power cables

    Hola Chicos, If you want to buy the CLXs AC cables, the price is $ 150.00 for the pair, direct price from ML. Find out at the service department. Again, my point is: you do not need better cables to power any electrostatic speaker. It's a capacitor. You need only .5 seconds to charge the...

    Hola Kotedo, I had the same set up at the end of the 90s. That's a very well description of the sound quality coming from the CLSs. What a great sound quality you have! Happy listening!

    CLX: power cables

    Hola Chicos, Mines came with standard cables, like a computer cable. Not a fancy ones. And this cable or $100 power cable for the CLXs will make NO difference in the sound quality. There is not energy consumption like it does a power amp or a preamp. Happy listening!

    Do I Really Need a Sub?

    Hola Chicos, Listen careful the advices that Peter gives for the right setup of a sub. To get the most of your sub, here is a video that shows how to find the right spot for it. It is much better for music, to perceive the bass than hear the bass. Is is very important to understand that...

    CLS II: countdown to sleep mode

    Hola fiel, To charge the panels takes less than one second. And it remains charged. But if you have a suspicious problem, disconnect the woofer while you do some tests. Also, this will help you to get the most of your CLSIIz. Playing any music with bass, move your CLS back and forth. You...

    CLS II: countdown to sleep mode

    Hola fcel, That’s normal. The LED goes off, but be careful. The panels remain charged for several hours. If you want to discharge the panels, play music having them unplugged from the mains AC. When they stop singing, they are fully discharged. If you plug them back, it takes less than a second...

    Do I Really Need a Sub?

    Right on Robert, Did you know that the woofers used on the Depth I have double magnets? Also they have a triple servo control. This is the why the Depth I is very accurate with the quality bass sound. The servo control offers to have very low distortion and an incredible bass detail. Happy...

    Ethos sound issues

    Hola Purdey, Thanks for the updated. Power amps? Very strange, you claim that the problem was at the stat panels, the digital built in power amplifier drives only the woofer. Well, it does not matters, the good thing is that they are singing again! Enjoy them! Happy listening!
