Amplifiers Recomm. to drive my Martin Logans


Hey All -
I'm in the process of getting my 2nd amplifier in 4 mos. b/c of the disappointment I have had in the sound of my Martin Logans (scenarios). Have small townhome w/ hardwood floors. Used nak RE-10 to drive the Logans (not happy) and now have a NAD C370 en-route. Will the new amplifier help me here? Looking for suggestions. Speaker wire suggestions are also appreciated.
I am a live music archivist and (DAT) tape alot of rock/jazz oriented music.

Also check out the Blue Circle amps. Founder/designer Gilbert Yeung is a Martin Logan man. They are one of his reference speakers for designing his gear. You could eMail him for his opinion on which of his amps would match your particular MLs best.


Here is a picture of Gilbert's listening room.


I too agree that a monster tube amp might be ideal, but if you are looking for a bargain basement solution, a trusty old Aragon 4004 MK II worked very well for me on a pair of ML SL3s.

It drove the hell out of them, sounded just fine, and never gave me a single problem even though I left it on continuously for about 7 years.
Sugarbrie, Cool picture and the fact that it's in the forums is even cooler. Question, HOW?
