Just checking, as I assume you do, that spikes are on the speakers? I worked for Davinci Media for several years (supplied many MLO members with their speakers) which allowed me to listen to many different setups in different rooms. My experience always led me to pursue ML for my own system.

I powered a vista/motif/fresco system with a sunfire cinema grand (still have and are using this amp) for 7-8 years until recent purchase of 11a/focus after giving the vistas to a friend. A previous forum member (sleepysurf) had already serviced the amp and it has run flawlessly for over 10...

I would watch out for projectors with light bleeding or non-imagine light, some light up surfaces all over the room. I have yet to have issues with our optima projector and the panels, or at least small enough I haven’t noticed.

From flying scripts to two beautiful systems, welcome back and thanks for the ML service story. Any big changes in the last few years?

Going from a single sub to sealed duals in our theater (Descent Is) and living room (SVS SB-13 ultras) has changed the whole experience with movies and music. Clear, accurate, quick, seamless, and omnipresent are words that come to mind. I would never go back after experiencing the setup both...

I was extremely happy with a motif and vista front stage for over ten years until upgrading to the focus. It is a very revealing speaker and it sounded amazing for well recorded content and still very good for everything else. The clarity also improved when I modified the mount to make more...

I am really surprised by the lack of vibrations in this space, the living room setup has more of a problem with that. Especially with the wine room glass doors, I thought it would drive me crazy, but I haven’t noticed.

Floor is a polished concrete due to wild livin with 3 kids (Gives it bar feel), our large carpet square has helped that area. Panels and traps to treat the room is next on the list of things to do.

Oh, our smaller cat likes to climb up and sit on the top. I was told by Martin Logan that the panels can handle it as they did testing by poking things through the panel without a difference in sound quality. As Chops has six, I was seeing if he had any tips.

We went with an 120 inch screen so I would have wiggle room down the road for sub and front speaker upgrades and placement adjustment. The bar has its own zone, and it’s nice to watch a game or stand up when I have to put Frozen II on the screen for the 20th time.

Rears are frescos and surround are Helios 100s in the ceiling.

Any tips on keeping the cats from climbing the panels? (Outside is keeping them out of that room)

Took some pictures for the full set up. We wanted to design a shared space where music and movies could be enjoyed by our kids and friends. View from the bar: View from the theater: It has really been a journey getting to this point, from a receiver, a pair of sources, and an extra...

Cat pictures. Isn’t that what the internet was made for?

That's some near field listening. Do you usually listen with door open or closed? How much does that change the sound without the first reflection point? Have you listened with just a chair or smaller couch in the room (not a L shaped sofa)? I enjoyed your story about the progression as we...

I was and continue to be impressed with my ML Helos 100s as rears in the 5.2 living room system and rear surrounds in the 7.2 theater. I would think the options stated above would give similar results. They are an excellent tonal match in both systems and have more presence then I expected...

Maybe 50 hrs on the 11a, it has been fun breaking them in. Re ARCed the basement after install. Opening of Baby Driver - whole new experience. The downshifting shift shock makes you feel like you are in the passenger seat taking a ride, never even felt or heard it before, changes whole...
