Stat panels image really well, so if your mains are dialed in, you may not suffer nearly as much as a typical box 2 way. The center panels usually are mainly used for the frequencies that carry voice, so they usually do not need to be full range either. I think a Martin Logan and proper pre...

Hi Cliff, Just a few thoughts. Using an LED headlamp in your darkened listening room, sit in your sweet spot and focus on each of your two Odysseys. Does your headlamp reflection hit a symmetrical equvalent of both of your panels? If you adjust your rake using a level, what degree of rake are...

Would a single electromotion fit under your TV? That might be best. I use a pair of Theaters stacked on top of each other and use 4 clsIIz elsewhere as mians and sides. I would purchase another clsIIz and use it as my center by turning it 90 degrees using a metal frame to hold it in place. If...

I am wondering why Martin Logan chose to showcae the Neolith using Krell amps instead of Pass Labs. Could it be synergy that Martin Logan would showcase the Neollith paired with Krell?

Hi Tim, I understand that it is not easy to switch out the speakers again and again, but which do you prefer in your new room overall?

I read that the S-1200 signal processing is a pair of dual core 32 bit Cirrus and then routed to 24 bit ESS Sabre DACS. I forgot what the Lexicon has, but it was op amps that were about $30 each and that they used only ½ of them on each channel. $30 is pretty much for that component. My...

Thanks for saying you might contact me in the future about your clsIIz speakers. I would take good care of them and give them lots of room. You are very gracious. I have to agree that the anti cable is a stepping stone for those that like inner detail but I only speak of the originals back in...

I have to agree that signal cables can make a tremendous difference with the very fast and transparent Martin Logan speaker. Gordon, I noticed you have the 1200u working the great Fathom subs. Does that unit have any DSP? How much time did it take to get the room to sound right if you do not...

Hi Tim, It looks like a very expensive investment. I bet those Kef are really great in the new room with all the new gear. Those metal drivers are just so unique. How did you go about choosing them? Let us know if you ever want to sell your clsiiz. Please give me a chance to buy them if you...

The cheapest cord I found that had any resolution, PRAT, and decent balance was the Granite Audio 555, which I tried only because I started with cheap cords and I had an extra pair laying around. I did not expect that they would be better than the Audience or the Transparent reference ss. I...

is the upgrade in sound enough for you? It is great when you stop because you are satisfied.

I would first consider speaker placement with the listening chair picked out. Get the image dialed in. Try to find a spot where the piano decay sounds ‘right’. I sit 11 to 12 feet away from my speakers. They are nine feet or so from the back wall. The sidewalls do not matter so much because...

I have worked and reworked my room using the clsIIz over the years. I would consider doing the following in this order of “easy to do”. The clsIIz speaker will always be very fast, but it can be unbelievably revealing too. The revealing nature of the speaker is what keeps me working it. I...

If you go with the soundanchors, you can ask for different heights from stock.

I am glad to hear it is in working order. You will be hearing more inner detail than you can imagine possible. Does it sound fuller and more dynamic too?

In a room that size you may have a problem with pressurizing the lower frequencies and getting enough slam. It seems you would be listening near field. I listen to my panels from 9 to 10 feet away and they are another 8 feet to the front wall, so I am about 18 feet to the front wall. I...

Owned the kav500 using all five channels with 4 cls & 1 theater. If you have the five channel version and use only two channels, the toroid is not taxed at all and there seems to be more headroom. In addition, once you put aftermarket fuses on the two boards you are using, such as hifi tuning...

One advantage of the Theater is the ability to voice the Theater speaker to sound more like your Scripts and Quests by using the same power cord and AC power source. If you are not a power cord advocate, then this may not matter. On a slight hijack note: It has been impossible for me to get...

Hi Roberto, I have ready your posts for years and you have provided me with lots of inspiration and knowledge. You are one of the few I could name that kept me from trading in my clsIIz because they are so transparent and made the gear I was using at the time seem like junk. I use Valhalla...

I agree with you about improving the center channel via more panel. I am trying to find a metal worker who would make stands that would allow me to spin a clsIIz ninety degrees and hold it in place with some adjustability so that I can dial it in using the stand. I am still looking for that...
