Non Authorized Martin Logan Dealers


I am in the market for speakers. I had thought of the well reviewed PSB Imaging T3, but I found the female vocals to be veiled. The dealer (authorized) had Martin Logan Impression 11A. I was very impressed. The lack of box, vocals, adjustable bass with DSP and room correction. I am finding them available at 35%  discount by non-authorized dealers. I would like to hear from people about the speakers and the dealers. 
My present speakers are Merlin VSM and I would like more bass extension, but I still love their midrange.

@yyzsantabarbara ,

There is no way in hell the dealer the OP is thinking of buying from, can discount  a pair of Martin Logan Impression 11A speakers for 35% below MSRP and still make any money. At tops the guy has 5% left to work with. Even if the guy doesn't have any overhead to speak of how much of the $500 left will he pocket for his time?

If it sounds to good to be true, .....

 
 
@jea48 Martin Logan sells the speakers to his authorized dealers for 60% of MSRP. plus shipping.

Is this an assumption or fact?


not a dealer
but i worked at 3 high end audio shops
40% margins before shipping are typical on speakers
so very doubtful that the 35% off deal has any margin left
