I agree. You need more power and control. Try a Sanders ESL amp and hear what these babies can do. The larger Pass amps also work very well.
Martin Logan Prodigy with Sonic Frontiers Power
I recently acquired a pair of ML Prodigy speakers. I was running a set of Vandi 3As with a Sonic Frontiers Power 2 tube amp (110W/ch) before the purchase.
When I run the Power 2 to the MLs, though they have a much more WOW sound than the Vandis, I feel the setup lacks midrange at lower volume. I would have thought being both were characteristic of great mids that the mating of them would have been ideal but I am thus far not 100% happy.
When I turn up the volume things start to fall into place, but then it is too loud. :) Media format of choice is vinyl but CD seem to make this combo more alive. Also, the set up sounds a bit distorted and vague at times.
Comment? MLs being under powered? SF Power 3 monos needed? 220W/ch
