| Interesting Magico news @Melbguy1,Yes, I know I was super-oversimplifying, in saying that the chamber looked like a plastic dish shape. I realize that their design goals and manufacturing tolerances are all done toward state-of-the art results. At this level and with th... | |

| Speaker companies with a focus on parts quality and measurements PMC DB1+ here on the 'gon. Two mains and a single for a center. $999 | |
| Advice for Sub to match with Martin Logan Monolith III Yeah, me too. Like I said, I'm 95% two channel music. Maybe having a pair of nice subs will allow me to consider horns or panel speakers next as well. | |
| Advice for Sub to match with Martin Logan Monolith III Steve, nice.I just got the CXC transport recently because my old faithful highly modified Pioneer Elite PD-65 bit the dust and gave up the ghost for the final time last year. And my $40 DVD player just wasn’t, um, "optimal". Debated going all file... | |
| Advice for Sub to match with Martin Logan Monolith III Hey Steve, nice pick up. Can’t go wrong at the price and the trial period, etc.My main speakers are PMC PB1is. I’ve currently driving them with a Muscial Fidelity TriVista integrated, but I recently purchased some Bryston 7BST monoblocks (currentl... | |
| Advice for Sub to match with Martin Logan Monolith III Very welcome Steve. I think/hope they will be the ticket for me as well. They seem to be very well reviewed.Maybe not *quite* a JL Audio Fathom F113, but they’re 1/3rd-1/4th the [$3,999] price. | |
| Advice for Sub to match with Martin Logan Monolith III SVS SB13 Ultra - scratch and dent in Piano Gloss Black. 1,000 watt RMS amp. Regularly $1,600 but outlet price of $999 but with 5 year warranty and 45 day in home trial. Includes shipping too - which can be high for 100 pounds. I just picked up (2)... | |
| Best powercables for Martin Logan 15A speakers Ok, I will be the odd man out. Power cords WILL make a difference on your crossover and class D amps in your [expensive] speakers. https://www.martinlogan.com/renaissance-esl-15a/index.php. I would not go TOO crazy, but you really should demo a v... | |
| Tuberolling the REF5se... +1 for Andy at Vintage..Tube rolling fun, and the gospel, make old[er] classics new and 'born again' ! :-D | |
| Does anyone have any experience of hybrid valve and solid state power amps? I have a Musical Fidelity Tri-Vista hybrid integrated that is quite nice. | |
| Finally absolutely satisfied with my system Outstanding!PMC make great speakers that measure extremely well and sound great. Lots of engineering, experience, and working with driver manufacturers.The *only* thing I would recommend you consider (funds allowing) is a Bryston B-100 SST. You ca... | |
| PMC Fact 3 with hegel h160 or accuphase 350 I would suggest a Bryston 4BSST and a tube preamp.I have PMC PB1i and use Joule Electra + Bryston. Musical Fidelity is a good suggestion (I have TriVista hybrid integrated too). I would also consider Plinius. | |
| Tube vs Solid State Your speakers will absolutely wake up with Bryston 7B or 28B power. | |
| Interesting Magico news I think it’s just a plastic dish of a specific size, which is likely filled with some damping material (of celestial origins no doubt). Here is a video of the S3; discussion (and picture) of the polymer housing for the midrange is at about 9:45 ma... |
