Are Dual turntables any good?
Yes, the old turntables were made in Germany. 
Martin Logan Summit, better than Prodigy
Not yet. The Summit is not cheaper than the Odessey and close to the price of the Prodigy. Around 11,000 depending on finishes as I understand. 
Klipsch ?
The Heresy's are a 3 way. 12 inch woofer, horn loaded mid and tweeter.Alway was and always will. 
Manufactured Cds -- difference in brand names?
False.This has been in discussion before. From my rememberance, the CD's from BMG, Columbia House, etc are no different than the ones in the store. 
Has any heard of rawshipping.com?
Audioweb has been plagued with scammers from the UK. Example: Krell 700CX. retail $14,000 selling for $1500, Krell FB 600 for $1200, etc. They use different address's in Hawaii, UK, Arizonia,etc. STAY AWAY!! 
CD player - skips and static pops ... related?
a Q-tip will work but compressed air is preferred unless there is an actual dirt film on the lens. I have used a q-tip dipped in alcohol,pressing ever so lightly and using compressed air to blow off residue on my 508.24. Hope this works. I'm assum... 
Storm III or Stadium III for Martin Logan SL3's?
The Stadium is a better choice. Have you thought about the ML depth or descent sub. I have the Descent with my SL3's in a smaller room than your's.The ML subs are better matched to their Electrostatic speakers. Both the Depth and Descent have won ... 
Which Sub for Martin Logans?
I am using the Descent with my SL3's. It only makes sense to use ML subs with their speakers! They are specifically designed for electrostatics but also can be used successfully with dynamic speakers as well. 
meridian 506.16
There was the early Meridian 506.16, single laser which was updated to a three point laser and other improvements. I would want to find out which version it is. Get serial number and call Meridian. The 506 is a great unit and should last many year... 
ELF Acoustics speaker cables, anyone????
I have a 6 foot pair of Silver Reference with gold spades.I paid $85 brand new. Four cables in all. Great cables. A no brainer. I have a high resolution system including Meridian and Martin Logan. 
meridian 506 versus 508
The 508 has better bass slam, wider soundstage and increased resolution. The 508 is for those systems that are clearly high end. The 508 has much better jitter control than the 506. The 506 is very good and competes with most in the price range.Th... 
Need help with AC power.
I would notplug the amp into the Panamax as it can reduce dynamics. Plug the amp directly into the wall socket.No harm will comeof it. 
ELF Custom Cable Inc. Silver Signatures
I have a pair of Silver Reference.They are great!! I sold my JPS Superconductor 2's and have not regretted it. It is a very simple design that works.I use the Silver in a bi-wire mode with heavy gage copper for the lower region. I have Electrostat... 
Harm in using a power strip as an on/off switch?
If it is SS. amp, I would leave on all the time unless gone for extended period of time. The on/off of an amp does more damage then good. 
Elf Silver cables.....
I have a 6 foot pair of Reference Silver and these are great cables. I have a high resolution system and was skeptical at the retail price. These are one of the best cables I have owned!! The bass is tight and highs detailed but not edgy or brittl...
