I am certain to get my first ML speakers. I have the choice of Clarity vs SL3s used, locally to me and I am seeking you views on the choice.

Thanks for allowing me into the forum

Hola and welcome Bohe60s,

I will choose the SL3. I has bigger panels and also a 10" woofers. It is a great sounding speaker. Let your ears decide. Both models have over 15 years to be into the marketplace.

Happy listening!

Clarity's bass/panel integration is probably better than the SL3's, but like Roberto said, the panels are bigger. Clarity would also be easier to drive than the SL3. How big is your room and what amp will you be using?

Current Clarity owner, Clarity can sound very good in smaller room, but it's very placement sensitive and small sweet spot. However, if your room can accommodate SL3 and seller already replace the panel, go with SL3 for sure.
