Why so many problems with martin logan?

Sounds like Johnk is making this up. Eight pairs - OK. Who is the dealer so we can check this out. I hate fake threads like this bashing something that was not the fault of the manufacturer or dealer.

I have had 3 pairs which includes the pair I Currently own and have never had a damaged pair. Why would you buy 8 pairs of a speaker which you have had Nemours problems with?????????? I took 8 pairs to move on??

Dear Lpg:

I understand that it seems suspect and exaggerated, but I believe him with his numbers.

I want to say that I am proud to know Johnk personally. He is a prodigious acquirer of all gear, especially speakers. I personally purchased two Martin Logan speakers from him that were part of two different systems. I remember seeing him with some older stuff years ago too. I have never seen anyone own as much product as this man. Constantly churning systems. My friends think I am obsessed and I think that Johnk is pretty obsessed compared to me.

If you check his feedbacks, you will get an idea just how much he has gone through since joining this community. He is not a reseller or a dealer, nor is he affiliated with any audio company. He just owned much more than I ever will.

ooks like a competition on who had more ML pairs:-).

Since most audio companies do not ship directly to consumer's homes, I doubt their packing is to blame. They seem to arrive at dealers in one piece.
