Anyone listened to ML Vantage?

Hello,

I have heard very positively of ML Summits, but that is beyong my reach! Wondering if anyone had an encounter with the new Vantage, which is the smaller sibling of the Summit?

ML sent be the brochure and the specs of Vantage and they look good except for the 8" diameter woofer. Ascent, which is being replaced by Vantage had a 10" woofer, so I am wondering if that is a compromise. (However the Vantage has the Aluminium cone woofer, which ML claims is up to the task)

PS: If anyone needs the specs please PM me and I shall email. It appears that the ML website is not yet updated with Vantage.

Cheers,
amal

Hey guys

I have not listened to the vantages but do own logans. Have either one of you considered the pair of ascent i logans that are for sale here on the gon and then adding a depth sub? The ascent i are listed for 2995 and a new depth is 1800 thats 4795 in my book and believe me you would not be disappointed in that combo. The frequency response on the vantage is 34-23000Hz. The ascent i is 35-22000Hz. Also the panel on the vantage is definetly smaller than the summit, the vantage is about the size of the aeons.

Denf, You got that right!I felt I would pay the $3,295 for the aeon's instead of the $4,995 for the vantages.But you have to look at the picture.....it was ran by garbage.
