I have the opportunity to get some older Martin Logan Odysseys for $1500 in mint condition. The newer Martin Logan ESL 8 goes for about 2,500 brand new for the pair. Unfortunately I will not be able to audition The Odysseys until I go to purchase them because of the traveling distance, but based on what I've heard from the ESL panels at Best Buy I love the martinlogan sound. So my question is do you think that the odyssey's will offer Superior Sound to the entry-level ESL 8 at the local Magnolia store? The odyssey's have a much larger panel, as they are 6 feet tall, and they also have a 10in woofer as well as an 8 in each cabinet, which should offer more bass response as well.
Thanks
