Has anyone heard the Martin Logan Acents

How much better are the acents than the sl3s?

The SL3 is one of ML's best speaker successes. The Ascents are probably a little better in that they are easier to drive and give you a different bass situation - maybe defined as better depending on your room. Auditioned at the same time you may not feel a great difference but over the long haul the Ascents come around and make the extra cost a benefit. Short term owners may want to stick to the SL3.

Well its been crazy. I was going to buy revel Gems and that didnt work out and I just sold my sl3s. which I felt had a great sound but the bass didnt intergrate very well with the panel. I called Martin Logan today and the said the Acents are much better but what else would you exspect them to say? Thank you for the input

Lev335. I thought the aerius i sounded better than the sl3, the base intergrated better I thought. Plus I added a sub which helped alot. Someone told me to disconnect the sub in the aerius and just use my external sub. After that I realized the sub in the aerius did not intergrate as well with the panels. Spoke with martin logan and they said no they intergrate fine. I should have know that was coming. Well I decided when I can afford it that my aerius i will go to the rear for ht and I will buy the cls2z and hopeful find a sub that can keep up with them. Good luck pete
