| Has anyone ever stacked Martin Logan CLS panels Quote Bignerd100: "I think that the two seprate speakers for each channel would defeat some of the benefits of using the CLS panels. THey act as a point source."Actually the CLS behaves as a Line Source as do all of the Martin Logans hybrids above... | |
| Do unpowered Subwoofers/Speaker effect room modes? Well, I wiil second Rives' and Xiekitchen's observation that dormant speakers will "sing along" with the active speakers in the room.

| Oracle Alexandria - time for new springs? Rick,You are describing the exact symptom of a bent sub chassis. Exactly what I ran into. To be sure, you need to dissassemble the table and remove the sub chassis. Then simply put a straight edge across the top of the subchassis casting will eith... | |
| Oracle Alexandria - time for new springs? Hey Rick,I suspect your problems actually go a little deeper than the springs. Older Alexandrias had a sub-chassis made of a cast alloy which eventually sags (bends) under the platter's weight. The fix is a replacement sub-chassis made of the same... | |

| Spectacular Drum Set? The most amazing drum recording I've experienced (and this one kills most of the ones listed so far) is from South American metal band Sepultura. I don't recall the name of the album but on that album they play with the Kodo drummers of Japan. The... | |
| Sorry,need info on Dunlavy again Aletha vs SC-IV Neither model will work satifactorily in your room. As a former SC-IV owner I can attest to the minimum 8' listening distance John Dunlavy specified for these speakers.
