    Hello! Proud new owner of a set of ML Clarity!

    Welcome to MLO forum. Good idea to rinse the panels with neutral temperature water. Do let us know if you get them back alive.

    More Feet/Spike Advice

    If I am not mistaken pointed feet are to loudspeakers what lens is to camera. Lens help to focus the output of the camera, namely the image. Similarly pointed feet help to focus the output of the loudspeaker, namely aural image. A focused aural image possesses the qualities of imaging...

    tube amp dust

    Any duster that is very soft, light weight and able to flex may be okay. Ostrich feather duster should be ideal.

    Hello New Martin Logan Owner

    Welcome to MLO forum. Congratulations on your recent great ML acquisition. Motion 40 are fun to listen to. I heard them some years ago with Quad stereo transistor power amplifier and they had a great engaging sound. You must have got a good price on them since they are no longer manufactured...

    Any good media streamers coming out, or just released lately?

    I completely agree. If CLX price come back to $25k then we will know demand was elastic. And not work out for them. If price stays at $30k then demand is relatively inelastic.

    The recent sale namely 20% off retail for masterpiece loudspeakers. Their price elasticity perhaps is greater than 1. In other words their demand is elastic. Some decrease in price results in larger qty demanded. If this is true then Robert you are right in assuming 20% increase in price of CLX...

    Raising the price of Neolith by 25%, ML hopes there will be comparatively small percentage reduction in quantity demanded by consumers. Strategy has to do with price elasticity of demand for Neolith. If this is the case then demand for Neolith would be inelastic. Strategy always has to do with...

    Any good media streamers coming out, or just released lately?

    Jason thanks for information. Data cable signal goes to computer monitor or printer. And HDMI signal goes where? To the monitor or TV?

    Any good media streamers coming out, or just released lately?

    Jason what purpose do the four separate cables attached behind Mac mini serve? On the extreme left the coiled blue one I guess is the usb digital cable. On the extreme right the black cable is the power cable. What are the two middle cables? I request this information from you. Because like...

    New Ownership for Martin Logan

    Why should ML sell goods at discount and lose sales discount amount when under normal economic conditions without offering discount can turn inventory over target number of time during the financial year. Only when sales are sluggish and there is backlog of unsold items if I am not mistaken the...

    75% off clearance sale only if the company says goodbye to consumers. You can buy used ML that have been used for a few years for 75% off retail price. Okay perhaps not 75% but still substantial discount on used items. I bought my CLS used for six years for 70% discount of list price. The CLS...

    System #545 (CLX)

    First things first. The CLX Art loudspeakers look resplendent. Congratulations. Second, whenI just acquired my ESL9 the soundstage image could perhaps be a touch higher. Seem to me top quarter of panel was producing no sound. A quick fix was to reduce back tilt to maximum so the panels are more...

    Moving ML CLX’s

    Great practical advice. Great solution.

    New ESL X’s

    First, try passive biamping. Use Vtl 80 mono for woofer and 225 for panels. Open rear pointed feet 2 complete revolutions. Keep front feet fully closed. ESL X not point towards listening spot. Should point straight ahead at wall with max 1 degree toe in. The above worked for me in my room. Since...

    $126.00 complete Acoustic Audio surround system

    Acoustic Audio do not buy. Too small meaning ideal for only desktop use and inside the product the company may have cut corners to deliver so much for so little coin.You already have Electromotion ESL. My advice apply the $126 towards a power cable for your amplifier.

    Sale or reduction in price is done to increase quantity of goods company wants to sell. With covid demand is low for ML products. In recent difficult financial situation to meet their budget target of quantity they want to sell they have to reduce price to make their products more affordable for...

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

    I asked a expert who has been in the industry for more than three decades. He said takes 40 hours of listening time for panel to break in. His view was more or less same as Jonathan regarding panel run in time.

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

    I listen to music on average 9 hours a day. Some days 6 hours and other days 12 hours. If only one variable was being considered holding others constant I may have been able to know how long it takes for new panels to break in. In the roughly one year 4 months I have had my 9’s I initiated 4...
