Good point. I will back up Moon's comments on the LC1 (I have four: two on my MLs, one on my DAC, and one awaiting surgery to remove the captive power cord on my ARC SP9 and replace it with a Furutech IEC inlet).....health problems have prevented me from doing this. I have not yet played with...

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, a person displays his lack of breeding when he can't keep a civilized tongue in his head after traversing this planet for over half a century. I don't understand why the EW acolyte/disciple feels compelled to enter every cable discussion and stay.

If forced to choose a standard option, I would go with dark cherry and a black airframe.

How about the custom finish options? I like the Córdoba red. I wonder if you could still get bubinga, etc. Why don't you ask? I would go with the black airframe.

I have always found it unfortunate that a man can traverse this planet for over half a century and not learn how to keep a civilized tongue in his head. Resorting to sarcasm and ridicule is not considered being civilized.

After my Quad 57s I realized that I could not go back from electrostats.

Somewhere on Martin Logan's website they state explicitly that you can drive their speakers with a receiver, so you can hardly blame Best Buy for doing so.....ML says it can be done, so demo it!

Yes, thanks Peter! Makes it clear as to why it was done.

I wonder what possessed ML to make the backsides so large; I think they are impractical. I think that a wider speaker would have been more acceptable, and would have given more volume to the woofer cabinet, if that was the issue. This is one they did not think through clearly, IMO.

Guess I'm the dinosaur (of sorts) here....still playing with vinyl. I was never happy that I had to use the gain control on my ARC SP9 MKII at about 3 o'clock (i.e. close to maximum), so decided to build a step-up transformer using two Beyerdynamic microphone transformers ($100 on eBay). I did...

Merry Christmas Justin (living it up in Tenerife) and everyone else, and Happy Birthday Roberto!

My enthusiasm for the brand has not waned. I would purchase the CLX in a heartbeat, but it's a question of economics...I can't afford them! I'm still amazed when on other forums I see that so few people seem to own MLs.

Gordon, you keep referring to "46". Are you thinking (perish the thought) of 45 devil's spawn becoming 46?

Interesting. Looked at the link. The caps are CJD proprietary, so they would no doubt not sell them to you, but require you to send the unit back.

I thought Wadia was now part of the Audio Research group.

I think the name "Luther" is appropriate....maker of lutes....works with fine woods? Actually luthier. You do really gorgeous work. Love the rosewood. I was looking at some really nice Padauk (love that wood!) recently for a top for my stereo stand, but it was not wide enough, and two panels...

Adam, setting up a new server is trivial......but you have to be a MAC guy! :)

Yes, you've always been a gentleman in our discussions, Adam; I appreciate that! I was reading recently about a record pressing plant in the Czech Republic that did not close down when the business slowed to a trickle. They just serviced the minimal business they received, but diversified into...

Adam, don't knock the "quaint" little trade with vinyl. I recently modified my vinyl rig with an inexpensive DIY, then bought Diana Krall's "Turn Up The Quiet" on vinyl....yes....vinyl. It's PHENOMENAL! You just have to know what to tweak! Right, Dave? Next purchase....her "Live in Paris"...

I thought SACDs were all but dead. I remember walking into a large record store in Montreal years ago, and seeing a bunch they were almost giving away.
