Bridged amp with electrostatics..
Hallo Atamasphere, I own a pair of Martin Logan SL3's with fully re-worked crossovers and re-cabled with Kimber silver cables.I am planning to have a listen with Musical fidelity gear, their high-range sports bridged amplifiers so before I even th...

"With *any* bridged amp, both speaker terminals should be kept from ground."Hallo Atamasphere, by this you mean I should not ground the main for the speakers, yes?I'm sorry but I find hard to understand what I should do exactly.Thanks for the pati... 
Martin Logan SL3 missing soundstage
Thanks Siliab, I will try that. I already managed to get something back by moving the speakers more distant from the front wall.I am surprised how little changes can have a profound effect on imaging.I still trying to fight against some brightness...

Bridged amp with electrostatics..
My speakers are Martin Logan SL3; I don't mean blow the speaker by too much power (altough it may occour).I don't understand why it is not safe to have grounded tweeters or crossovers when using a pair of bridged amplifiers.I think electrostatics ...

Understand. So has anybody heard of silver terminations? So far I don't think I ever seen any silver plug ever.By what you say (and I appreciate your effort) terminations are usually in copper so them too are very prone to oxidation.What if some t... 
Help CDP over vinyl upgrade advice please
I live in UK and I can give you a little advice as far as CPD's are concerned in here; A nice little valve-cdp could be the shanling cd-t80, I haven't listened to it yet but I'm familiar with shanling gear and it should be very good.The Rega Apoll...

Thanks Gmood1, sounds (pun intended) good to me...Got another question: Have any of you used a special paste made of silver to help the connections between components? 
Bridged amp with electrostatics..
That's right Gregadd, the amp in question is the MF KW500 integrated and it is built in as bridged...I still look for sombody that has a bridged amplifier/s that uses for electrostatics, what are the precautions?Thanks all of you.

Ok, but does oxidation occours on the whole cable or just on the termination point? Nordost uses air in their cables to improve speed, is that he case or maybe I'm just mistaken? 
Bridged amp with electrostatics..
Sorry I may bring some confusion; I am keen to buy a MF KW amplifier, there are two models. One is integrated delivering 650W and theother is a power amplifier only delivering 750W; both are bridged per se,by design and non-reversable.

Hi Siliab, do you mean send the signal out-of-phase?If so I'll try and I'll let you know, thanks.
