    ESL Series Purity Black going into auto-protect mode

    Are you sure it is an auto protect? Isn't it automatically going into standby? This happens with the Purity when it receives no signal. Maybe you could try with some louder levels for a while, just to be sure what is happening.

    Shun Mook

    You should. I use several of his resonators, sugar cubes and diffusors, and they do make my room sound better.

    Purity vs. Prodigy

    My amp isn't very sophisticated, though not bad, but my dealer also recommended to use the speaker posts in stead of the RCA inputs for this very reason. I have always done that since, because I didn't want to invest in expensive long interlinks that won't be useful anymore in case I buy new...

    Purity vs. Prodigy

    do you mean here that you are switching between the RCA inputs and the speaker binding inputs of the Purity's? In both cases, you are still using the internal amp of the speakers. Just like with the ML's that only have a powered woofer, you can connect the Purity's to an external amp and still...

    Free software for ripping CDs

    I know some Mac users who use XLD. But I'm not a Mac man myself, so I don't know if it is the best option. Isn't it possible to run Windows on a Mac machine? In that case, you could use dBpoweramp...

    Free software for ripping CDs

    Though I have never used it, I have heard some good word about mp3tag, a free program to easily change all mistakes you have made while ripping, regarding names, titles etc. It can change more than just the tags of mp3's.

    Free software for ripping CDs

    The most important lesson with ripping is: do it once, and do it good, because it is a nasty task, especially if you have to do more than a few cd's. I would recommend dbPoweramp. It's not free, but not more than about 40 dollars. It will make the job very easy. There is a great thread about the...

    I cant figure out how to power on my Martin Logan Grotto i subwoofer

    Hi Frank, I have a Depth, that has the same standby/on/auto switch. When set in the middle position, it will always be on. In the top position, it will only be on when there is a singnal coming from your pre amp. If you don't have a light, that could mean your cable is faulty, or the fuse is...

    Room Acoustics Planning

    Hi Bonzo, I saw you have your Summits almost next to your kitchen sink. You will have to be careful while cooking. Smoke and tiny particles of fat will easily attach to the panels and degrade them. My advise is to always cover them while cooking.

    Testing Devialet with Logans below 4 ohms

    Two weeks ago, I had a brief conversation with my dealer in Rotterdam (The Netherlands) and he told me that he gets great results with Devialet driving Ethos speakers. I haven't heard this combo myself, but I trust his ears...

    NAS with Audiolab M-Dac and Bel Canto Ulink fed to MLs

    i have a Meridian Sooloos system, that is easy to setup and very easy to use while playing music. The iPad app is the main interface to play music, but this works flawlessly. For any album on it, you can star and skip tracks, which means that you can choose to only play the best with one click...

    summit, hi-voltage nosie

    If it is indeed only some dust or another particle... Once you have located it with your ears, it's unually easy to see with a sheet of paper and a flashlight: fix a sheet of white paper on the back of the panel. With the right paper size, it will easily fit and stay there. Then hold the...

    Sound proof - house next to freeway

    If you want ventilation but no noise, there are special damping openings available. Like on this Dutch website: http://www.buva.nl/site/onze-producten/ventilatie/geluiddempend-ventileren/33.html There must be American altenatives I guess.

    Digital amps on ESLs

    I have ML Purity's, which are fully powered by a built-in switching amp. I even believe they are B&O amps, but I am not sure about that. They sound great, but I must confess I have never heard other ML's than my own.

    HELP PLEASE! New Montis owner just cannot get a centered stereo image

    I also have a somewhat similar setup, with large windows to the left and an open space to the right. The sound image in my setup also tended to be on the right side, and not in the middle. About 75 percent of this problem was solved by sticking Acoustic System International sugarcubes to every...

    Alternative audio websites

    A website you all may like is this one: www.hifi-advice.com/ It's from a guy in The Netherlands who writes extensive reviews of all sorts of equipment. I do not know him, but it seems to me he buys everything himself and then studies it extensively. And... he is a former ML owner, but has...

    Summit: correct Mains Polarity

    In Europe this is more a problem than in the US, because here you can insert the plug into the wall two ways. The wall sockets have two ground pins at the edges of the inlet. And apart from the ground pins, there is one neutral 'hole' and one with the alternating current. If you do not know...
