    System no. 442 ( CLS, Motion 15, ELS 9 )

    Humidity reaches 75% during summer season. I take steps to minimize the effect of humidity. My CLS panels are approx. 8 times the age of ELS9 and never had partial dead panel.

    System no. 442 ( CLS, Motion 15, ELS 9 )

    i do not remember with precision the date when i bought ELS 9. Approximately middle March, 2019. When i heard partial loss in output from panel the speakers were 4 years from the date of acquisition. Checked the crossover and circuit board. Everything looked okay except for slight...

    A fault in ELS 9 that developed in mid-March, approx. 4 years to my acquisition, involves reduced treble and no sound from lower half of one panel. The other panel suffers from reduced treble to the same extent and weak output from lower half of panel. The overall sound lacks treble and...

    Need answer to simple question.

    Amey01, with all due respect, if the car in question is a Porsche 961 that has just won the Paris-Dakar rally then removing mud will restore car aerodynamic and make less heavy. In addition less friction between moving parts partially jammed by mud. Depends on drag caused by mud, increase in...

    Need answer to simple question.

    Russr, with all due respect, solid copper, aluminum or brass whatever metal the connector is made of. The improvement in sonic made it seem to me perhaps they are directional. As distinguished members pointed out solid metal is not directional. If they are accurate then must be my strong desire...

    Need answer to simple question.

    How else would you explain improvement in sonics when I switched them around. Both ends of audioquest dual rca connector are identical. There was a substantial improvement similar to what happens when one uses directional interconnects in the correct direction.

    Need answer to simple question.

    I knew Nordost cable are directional. I connect interconnect with left and right channel signal flow going from source to amplifier. Wanted to confirm this is indeed correct. I had doubt in mind that source output is positive and negative. Wonder whereas positive signal travel to amp the other...

    Need answer to simple question.

    Hello, fellow MLO members. I have been using Nordost directional RCA interconnects. Assuming i have CD player and integrated amplifier. Then do both ( left and right ) arrows travel and connect in the same direction. OR does the signal travel in circular way? Answer will be much appreciated.

    Consider the case of Japanese automobiles. Within Suzuki product range each product has many extra options beyond those provided standard with basic product. The most basic car of each model is the least expensive and options add to luxury or performance just like pizza toppings add to taste or...

    A Sincere From My Heart Question Regarding the Future of ML ESL

    Form follows function. Reason why Porsche is sleek, low and wide. Road rollers are large and very heavy. Cheetahs are thin, flexible and sleek. Compared to cheetahs lions are large and somewhat heavier. etc etc.

    A Sincere From My Heart Question Regarding the Future of ML ESL

    I am a diehard fan of CLS 1 loudspeaker. Compared to ELS 9, CLS 1 deliver comprehensive sonic picture. And sonic precision or focus in spades. In addition, transient sonic effect, detail is more audible and the overall sound is more natural. Keep in mind still have original panel from 1989...

    New CLS Owner

    I do not remember the exact time duration. Panels get fully charged after time ranging from 5 to 15 minutes. Assumption is panel is not defective. No need to keep the panels constantly charged because they are going to attract dust when charged. When not listening to music better to switch of...

    New CLS Owner

    If the panels are not dusty then need to play music through them daily 2 to 3 hour for 2 to 5 weeks. The volume level will gradually increase. Notice a improvement after 2 weeks and greater improvement after 5 weeks of daily playing music through them. I hope you are using not defective power...
