@bill1957 There's no place near me to listen to them I'm in mannsville ny.
Plenty of good snowmobile and ATV dealers up near Watertown! 
Thinking about going electrostatic
Got that itch for speakers again I have a pair of Joseph audio pulsar and a pair of talon khorus. I like both but now thinking about martin logan my budget is 3 to maybe 4500 I would look for a used pair can't afford new not to concern about bass I have a talon roc sub. Speakers would be powered with a rotel 1090 and prima luna dialogue pre amp. Have never herd of that type of speaker. Would like to here your thoughts

Bill, There is a ML dealer in Rochester if you are willing to make the 2 hr drive. (Digitial Audio Video Enviroments https://www.comeseedave.com/) I don't know anything about them other than they are a licensed ML dealer. And don't dismiss the ML users group as a resource for a possible audition. They are a good group in this hobby. I got my first listen from a nearby user that responded from a post I made there. https://www.martinloganowners.com/ and whatever happens... enjoy where the journey takes you.

I used panels and electrostatics (Quads and Acoustats) for a number of years. I found that the most critical aspect of the merits of these speakers was the proper set up in a room large enuf. For example, they sound best at least 5ft from the wall behind them. Any closer and you start to lose the clarity that they are known for. The back wave can be a killer! I set up my Quads, out of necessity, in a room less than 5ft and they were easily bested by some quality dynamic speakers. 5 1/2 ft out and they were aurally superior to all but visually not acceptable. Good luck. |
