They drive my friend Andra Eggleston,without any problem at all.They are so musical,they posses 3D layering,and the vocal makes you feel, the performer is in the room.

I've heard that combo a number of times... exquisite! well within your budget (used) as well. As an added bonus, they'll also do a great job with your Martin Logans as you prepare to do the speaker upgrade.
