Amp for Martin Logan

I tried the Nuforce but I didn't like the speaker terminals. I biwire with two sets of cables and there is no way to tighten two sets to the amps. I do not like the plastic threads on the posts. I was afraid to tighten them, I thought they might strip. The amps sounded OK, great detail on the top and bottom, but I thought they were lacking some body in the mids. I sold the Nuforce and bought a set of Rowland 201s. The 201s sound excellent. I think I have found the right match for my system.

nice to hear pal. i'm always interested in great amp combinations w/ logans, i'll have to remember rowland.

Dennis,
I am considering a move to the Vantage from the Ascent i. I still hear the hole in the upper bass with the Ascents. My friend has the Summits and they definatly do not lack in the upper bass. I know the Vantage does not have the low bass like the Summit, but does the upper bass blend better than the older MLs?

the integration on the vantage is the best i've heard yet on a logan, it's very good. even tho there is an internal amp for the woofer, the bass takes on the character of the amp you pair it with... with my cary 805c, the bass is full and fleshed out.

now, in comparison to some audio note AN-E's that i heard over the weekend, it does not compare in terms of integration, but in terms of transparency and imaging, the vantage spanks the audio note.
