    Florida Expo Show Coverage Report: Loudspeakers, Tube Amps and Cables Oh MY!

    I'm going, and yes, there will, undoubtedly, be some "snake oil" marketing and gear, but also LOTS of well-engineered products that offer great value. Really looking forward to it! I heard the demand for (free) tickets was so overwhelming, they had to cut off the downloads.

    Highly recommended Chris Jones album.

    Agree! Great album! Unfortunately, his last, as he unfortunately died at age 46 in 2005 (Hodgkins Lymphoma).

    MartinLogan Perfect Bass Kit (PBK) Subwoofer Calibration System Review

    Great review, and PERFECT timing, as I have a ML BalancedForce 210 sub (with PBK) on order! Glad to hear it works reasonably well, but I hope they'll address the "quirks." I also have the XTZ Room Analyzer Pro kit, which I'll use for additional "dialing in", particularly for two channel...

    Interview with NHT On Loudspeaker Design Philosophy

    I still have their classic Sub Two, with it's superb outboard controller. Still going strong after 14 years! However, it will be relegated to secondary Home Theater use soon, as I have a MartinLogan BalancedForce 210 on order (with acoustic measurement/room EQ capability).

    MartinLogan Announces BalancedForce 210 and 212 Subwoofers

    I "second the motion" for a review! Particularly interested in how the 210 (or 212) compares to the ML Dynamo 1500X, as the specs are similar (though the 210/212 features and price points are much greater).

    MartinLogan Announces BalancedForce 210 and 212 Subwoofers

    Interesting design, especially the USB flash input to custom-match the low pass filter and EQ to other ML speakers. I hope ML will offer various finish options/upgrades. I'd like to know more about the Perfect Bass Kit option as well.

    MartinLogan Interview with Joe Vojtko

    Nice interview! I look forward to hearing more about the "Perfect Bass Kit" and hope they'll offer that technology (along with DSP) incorporated in the next generation of the Summit line. That's my next "dream" upgrade!
