From my experience talking to different people, people who owns Martin Logan seemed to be "extremely" proud of their speakers, they just don't seem to want to give other speakers a chance, I can sense the "cult-like" behavoir. On the other hand, people who don't own Martin Logan told me that people bought Martin Logan because of the name, good marketing... ...
Oo..just briefly checked the Audioasylum forum.. seems like nobody is saying good things about Martin Logan too I guess my curiosity has been completely dampened by now..

Nobody in their right mind would consider any of them acceptable by your standards. -Krull
Since joining this forum, I don't recall anyone talking about Martin Logan speakers, I wonder why. Is there anything wrong with their sound or price?

Krull's comments were inapproprate and uncalled for. Makes you wonder if he actually read your posts.
I don't want to be like George W. Bush, who has no idea how to defend himself and explain simple things....
"We look forward to hearing your vision, so we can more better do our job. That's what I'm telling you."—Gulfport, Miss., Sept. 20, 2005.
Apparently our president has a pair of "visionary speakers." BTW, I am going to Dan's to listen to his MLs in a couple of weeks. I've only heard MLs at Tweeter and they probably did ...
Oh..good... please report back you thought on the ML. The only electrostatic speakers I have listened to are Maggies 1.6, at the same store where I heard the Vandy 5A, if the guy did such a bad job on the Vandy, I can't imagine how bad he must have made the Maggies sounded. Now I honestly believe that the best way to listen to speakers is to go to the homes of actual owners, not in the B&M store where they tried to sell too many things.
Since electrostats can be ruthlessly revealing the conventional wisdom is to mate them with tube gear. Not that tube gear can't resolve well but because they tend to not be as bright sounding as many transister amps. A generalization for sure but the combo can be magic.
