Martin logan prodigies

You may think I'm nuts, but I listened to both Prodigy's and ReQuests. I bought the ReQuests. The 10K tag did have something to do with it. The Prodigy's sounded brighter, not better. I got the ReQuests and spent some $$ "upstream" to improve sound etc. I'm very happy with my choice. I did not find real faults with either in the bass. But I did hook up a couple of subs one for music and another for A/V) and I think that helps. It "tweaks" 2-channel but helps a lot of course on A/V. Good Luck

Romin--I also did have a rather quick chance to listen to the prodigies-- But I figured that it was not enough for a thorough investigation. The dealer had them driven by both the bryston and the new classe CAM 350 at 8 ohms and 700 at 4 ohms. As danish, suggested maybe the big Krell was a bit to active to bring the warmth and non-fatiguing sound that the logans are Known for. Furthermore, do anyone know if these speakers can be obtained at a discounted price if so where. The dealer where I auditioned these speakers did not want to move pass 5% the MSRP. I read in an audiogon thread that someone has purchase the logan at 20% discount $8,000.00. Any idea that you might have Danish or Ronin will be very much appreciated. THanks guys.

Patou- If you like I have a pair of 5 week old Prodigy (with Black side rails) and all original packing etc. Email me at [email protected]

patou,

i'd look into the newform research nhb645's or r645's. check out their www & the reviews at audioreview. at ~$2250 delivered, w/30-day in-home audition, there'd be lotsa $$$ left over for a sub system... ;~)

Buy the Quad 989's - no contest with the Prodigys - less money - fuller sound - goes low with just the right amoount od balance. Pus these with tubes like the EAR 534 amp or even the mcIntosh 275. Full range electrostats are the way to go.
