Martin Logan ESL 9 CLASSIC


Would you "goners" consider this loudspeaker world class or entry level audiophile?

It's amazing how expensive this hobby has gotten that a pair of 6500 dollar speakers are not world class. Are the ESL 9 classic comparable to the Ethos? 
How good a speaker is dependent on the criteria they use to evaluate them.

Thiel's, Proacs, KEFs and similar are all good box speakers. But if you want a more open sound, you're going to be looking at Electrostatic, Open baffle, and Omnis.

I've owed the ML Ethos speakers for 6 years, and to my individual tastes they are excellent speakers. World class, not so sure.
