Apparently they had their big rollout during CES 2006, but maybe some of you already had the opportunity for some critical listening or uses these @ home?

Is it as great as some early press statements are saying. Please chime in...

Please don't mind me bumping this up from the dead. There still aren't any reviews to be found online. I have read some impressions, but nothing in depth. Anyone out there with extended experience?

I know my friends dad has a Martin Logan setup that costed him $10 grand but sad to say i have not heared it myself.

Sorry i got no reviews.

These were given a very briesf review in the paper this week by a respected Australian reviewer.

Although he's the editor of Australian Hifi Mag, it's a shallow review because most of the paper's readers aren't audiophiles.

The jist of the review is "very impressive" and "the highs are slightly softer than the mid range and bass giving the music a relaxed feel particuarly at high volume". Don't know if this is of any help.

I did a bit of research myself and it looks like Ken Kessler will give it a thorough review in the June issue of Hifi World.

I had the Vantage before I moved to the Summits. I'll chime in with thoughts in a little while, sort of busy at the moment.

Thanks Joey, please do.

If your still thinking about the ML Vantage, might want to consider the new Ethos model.  Passive radiator design vs slot load bass port.  No bass port, especially on the back, helps with placement flexibility.
