Johnny Cash and Ray Charles....regardless of how old they were, it was still too early. And of course, Lee Morgan.

Hi all, Have owned the i's for the past 8 years. About 2 years ago, I purchased the new panels. Have checked thru my files and found an original Aerius brochure. Here are some of the published differences: Freq. Response: Aerius: 40-20,000 Aerius i: 40-22,000 Crossover Freq...

Zip3kx07, Yes, you're correct. I meant the 2nd generation ESL panel. Still found them a bit bright at first.

Hello Cadethoerk, Are your Aeon's brand new? If so, it may take a few hours (50 or so) for them to settle in. Your panels use the new X-stat technology. When I replaced the panels on my Aerius' awhile back, ML sent me the ones with X-stat technology. The shipping carton indicated that those...

cadetoerk, The following is a quote from my Aerius i manual (which also uses the plastic strips: "The clear Lexan panels on the back of the Aerius i stator are the key elements of an innovative pressure compensating technology. Martin-Logan is able to tone-shape the diaphragm + or - 6db...

Anthony, Congrats on your purchase of the Jolida JD100 cdp. The unit reacts very well to tube rolling. Currrently, I'm using the Raytheon 5751's w/windmill getter. Hopefully, your results with them will be as good as mine are. Am a big fan of the 5751's. I use them in place of the 12AX7's I...

Taz, Am sure you're going to get a lot of suggestions and I'll give you mine. I own an all-tube system, from CDP, pre-amp, phono stage, and amp. The only hiss I get is when I select phono on the preamp and turn the volume way, way up with no vinyl playing. Under ordinary listening conditions...

Hey kach22i, Do you see my amp stands? They are sitting atop granite slabs that I had my Aerius' on while I was experimenting with isolation/coupling issues. Even when placed on top of the rug, they coupled to my springy floor and presented no advantage to just coupling the speakers through...

kach22i & EricE, Thanks for your kind remarks. kach: It took me 6 yrs. before I discovered that decoupling the speakers would improve the sound. You said that "There are more drastic set-ups that will improve your system." Did you mean that the set-up that I used was simple, but...

The new panels are ~$395.00 p/pair plus shipping.

Hi Paul, Yes, that's the idea......decoupling the speakers from a bouncy floor. Your set-up looks good and you say you cleaned up your floor issues. But how do your speakers sound compared with them being coupled to the floor? Do you find the bass tighter? The highs clearer/less "smudged?" Am...

Jeff, The reason I use the floor protectors is that there was too much resonance when the spikes were coupled to the floor. Human fingertips are very sensitive to vibrations. When I touched the sides of the speaker rails during loud, bassy music, I could feel the speaker resonate. They seem to...

Can someone tell me where I've gone wrong in my set-up, spike-wise? (System #8) http://67.19.167.226/~tdacquis/forum/showthread.php?t=222 Seems like I'm getting less resonance with this set up then when I had the speakers coupled to the floor. Would appreciate any feedback, either on a...

Hello pat17, Actually, I'm agreeing with your approach. I'm using a carpet instead of the tube mates. I just didn't like the results of using the granite on the carpet and am using the floor protectors instead. My floor is very prone to vibrations so I find that de-coupling is better. If one...

pat17, What you've done is actually de-couple your speakers from the floor, something that I highly recommend and would advise people to experiment with. I, too, tried placing my spiked speakers on pieces of granite on a carpet that covered my 'springy' wooden floors, but found that the granite...
