    Panel upgrade needs amp upgrade?

    Well, in my case, panel replacement was a pretty inexpensive upgrade. I guess it depends on the wallet, mostly. :music: My speakers are in great shape, so I didn't really want all new ones. You seem to have great gear, so I dunno how much the upgrade bug bites you. I think the panel...

    Panel upgrade needs amp upgrade?

    Yes, that was an interesting read. I had not heard of an Arcam before. When I first purchased the Yamaha, I guess about 7 years ago, I went back and forth returning units to the dealer that I did not like. I got to the price level of the one I have now and liked the sound. For 7 years. It...

    Panel upgrade needs amp upgrade?

    Bob, Here's what my new panels look like. Notice you don't have those black bars running across the speaker. It's all clear now. The visual look is a bit different than the older panel.

    Panel upgrade needs amp upgrade?

    You know your comment about "the new panels being more revealing" gave me pause. That might be why I'm hearing things so much differently. My older panels were sooooo smooth. Last night I also noticed when my volume control (starts a 6 o'clock position) moves to 9 o'clock position that's where...

    Panel upgrade needs amp upgrade?

    In February, I purchased new replacement panels for my Aerius I speakers. The new panels came with some of ML's newer technology, the spars were clear...got the newer membrane materials I think. Anyway, the replacements looked different...no dark bars across the panels. I let these run on my...

    Aerius question

    Having just done this last week I will reply. Unhook everything, power, cables etc. Lay the speaker down so that the jacks are on a pillow or something. You want to keep from damaging the jacks on the rear. Then remove the side rails by bumping them from the bottom with a rubber hammer...

    Received new Aerius I panels

    I received and installed a new set of panels for my model Aerius I speakers during the weekend. After I installed the first panel, I noticed that the black bars running across the width of the panel were missing, so I guess I got to take advantage of some of ML's newer technology. My speakers...

    Receivers and ML.

    I have run my Aerius I speakers using a Yamaha RX-V995, biwired for 8 years. The receiver is rated at 100 watts into 8 ohms...I forget how much into 4 or 2 ohms. Anyhow, I have never ever had a single problem using that setup. Not even when my wife laid a book on the Pronto remote and the...

    What part is the "spar?"

    Wonderful. Thanks for the info.

    What part is the "spar?"

    I don't understand some of the names of the panel parts, even though I've had my speakers for years. Just ordered new Aerius I panels and don't understand what/where the "spar" is. Also not exactly sure where the "stator" is. I thought the "stator" was the little clear plastic pieces on the...

    2007 Martin Logan NATIONAL Meet!

    I have family close to Lawrence and one year while visiting during xmas, I called ML to see if I could run over and "see the plant." They were happy to oblige little ol me, so my father and my son plopped into the car and drove to Lawrence. The factory tour is quite interesting to ML product...

    What's your favorite music to hear through your Logans?

    :) To be totally honest, I get the biggest rush hearing the music I compose on my synth on my speakers. After that, pretty much any female vocal, anything by Ken Nordine, Alan Parsons (instrumentals...my favorite) and for movies, soundtracks composed by Hans Zimmer. I really liked his music...

    Has anyone here purchased the Pink Floyd new DVD that

    It was somewhere around 94...we saw them at the Hoosier Dome in Indianapolis. The disc is priced at 19.99, but for this week they are selling it for $15. Good deal.

    Has anyone here purchased the Pink Floyd new DVD that

    Ok, well I will answer my own question. If you are a Pink Floyd fan, this week they released a 2 disc DVD titled "Pulse." I anxiously awaited this release, having attended the concert tour depicted on the DVD. Unusual timing, since Syd Barrett passed away this week. The DVD release was...

    help/advice

    I believe the original Aerius did not have the LED's you mention. They did incorporate the LED which lights up when the speakers are powered on and are receiving an audio signal with the "I" version. Since you mentioned you had the Aerius (without the I) you wouldn't see the LEDs. Vacuum...

    Potential new cleaning tip.

    Last night I was able to finish one speaker before my wife wanted to watch a movie, so I had to stop. So we watched the movie with only one panel finished. If you look at my avatar, you'll notice I use "can lights" behind my speakers, so it is extremely easy to see where the "dark spots" are...

    Potential new cleaning tip.

    I did one side in about one hour. The point Qtips made me think of doing this. I want to do another 1/2 hours worth on the left side...then do the right speaker. Then vacuum one more time. I'm noticing there is more "grunge" in the center of the panels than there is on the curved sides.

    Potential new cleaning tip.

    I vacuum my panels often. They are about 7 years old. (Aerious I) I personally do not feel I have the technical ability to wash my panels as indicated on this site. I would LOVE to do that, but I can't really drive a nail straight so I figure I would just mess up my speakers. Somehow...

    Aftermarket power cords and speaker covers.

    I wish I would have had covers on my speakers about a week ago! Short story... Cleaning up around the house. Food Network show gives tip about cleaning your gas grill. Says put the grill grids in the oven and set the oven on "Clean." I did this and then went outside to work in the yard...
