RE: Open Baffle vs Martin Logan

Hi, I am not that familiar with ML, and if you are spending $8-10K I'm sure you will get a great speaker. My experience is with the Spatial Audio M3 that replaced my Dunlavy's.
I am so impressed with the M3's ability to image, throw a wide and deep soundstage, with a real palpable bass. When listening to classical or jazz in particular the "air" in the room, feels charged as it does at a live event. Granted, the lesser costing M3's I'm guessing will not provide as much pinpoint information as the ML. The other advantages of the Spatials are they are easy to drive, and go down to 38Hz (I think) are lightweight, are easy on the eyes, and don't need multi amps to operate.
My suggestion is give each company a call, and see what they have to say.It may be worth using Spatials return policy for an audition. Good luck!
