What's The Martin Logan MLT-1 Story?

Doesn’t seem like anyone knows or cares about yet another overpriced speaker system with 3.5” drivers and an 8” sub with a brand name...

...I hope it dies and goes on sale for $249.99.

I just got these last night and they're amazing. from what I've heard, martin logan basically disowned them and sold them all to fry's. I don't think they wanted to be known to have cheaper speakers, because the quality on these things is phenomenal. and the cost on them is crazy, about $300 per set.

I probably wouldn't use "amazing" and "phenomenal" in the same breath describing something with these specs. I suppose $300 is sufficient just to utter "Martin Logan" and hope someone is impressed but $249.99 is more appropriate....

I'm sorry, compared to every speaker set I listened to for under $500 this pair was by far the best. the sub that comes with it shakes my whole house

fry's web site is showing $799

are these the ones you're talking about?

matin logan mlt-1 is a awesome system for such a low price. if you expect to spend 249 then go shop walmart and dont ask question just grab. this speaker sounds better than all polk audio satellite speaker system.

ps. i sell home theater thats how i know.

whats crazy is I just came from this store where they are selling them fro $600

I think these are actually rebadged Paradigm Cinema 70 speakers. I believe I've read that somewhere before. Newegg sells them for $249 but if you want a better set spend $50-$100 more for the MLT-2. You'll get larger drivers and a 10"sub vs the 8" in the MLT-1.
