Yep, she sounds pretty alright, I'm still impressed by the sound of these Martin Logans too.

Wouldn't you know it.
There was a sweet pair of 605A's that went today for $1,385.
I got busy doing chores and missed out them. :rolleyes2:

I know this is going to come off as sounding harsh but how do you believe you are going to hear what a speaker sounds like listening to it on youtube through whatever speaker is hooked up to your computer and or in my case my cell phone?

Im not sure I get this.

Im sure the 605's are nice and the ML that I heard certainly impressed me.

You don't have VOTTs hooked up to your cellphone?

No but I can hook my cell phone to 604's or 19's and still not know how 605's or ML sound.

Really are you serious?
