I live in Louisiana where the humidity can reach 100%. My Odysseys always sound great.
Martin Logan Owners - Any problems with humidity?
Hi,
In my quest to replace my current speakers and during my research I came across an ex-Martin Logan owner who complained that the speakers sound terrible when the humidity level is high, which is typical during summers here in Toronto. (We try not to use the air conditioner whenever we can opting for 'fresh' air instead.)
The other caution he uttered was that they can't be put in front of a window for fear that the direct sunlight will cause them harm in some way. I can see how direct sunlight might bleach the wood trim but for me this is no big deal and certainly not a deal breaker. I think he said that the sunlight breaks down the panel or glue somewhere . . .
Is there any truth to either or both of these warnings for current versions of ML speakers (e.g. Aeoni i, Ascent, Ascent i or Odysee)?
I would appreciate hearing from ML owners and your experiences.
