Martin Logan Ascents -what rear speakers match?


My system configuration:
SimAudio 7 channel titan
EAD theatermaster 8800pro
EAD DVDmaster 8000 pro
Acoustic zen silver reference ICs to all channels
What I am looking for is some rear speakers, a center channel and subwoofer.
the only speaker that I have heard recently is the Aerial Acoustic subwoofer.
Opinions please - thanks to everyone who responds

Timinwi - Off topic but what do you think of your TM8800pro. After getting through the initial bugs...I LOVE MINE!!!
Like you I am getting through some but not others.
I love this preamp
Maybe you can help me
I have connected the preamp outputs with 7 acoustic zen silver reference II xlr 1 meter interconnects to my 7 channel simaudio titan.
when the preamp goes into standby mode about 2 minutes later the titan shuts down which I don't want to happen.
Simaudio suggest stated Based on your description, the cause of the problem is most likely not
your Titan, but rather your pre-pro which is putting out DC-type noise through its interconnects. Since the Titan is one of very few amplifiers on the market today that are fully DC-coupled, it will pick up the noise and shut down. We recommend having your processor checked
out by an authorized service technician for DC leakage on turn-on and turn-off. A diagnostic you can do yourself is to test the combo with RCA cables instead of balanced (or the other way around) - if the problem goes away it again suggests a problem with a power supply or analog stage of your pre-pro.

DO you believe this answer from Simadio?
what problems are you encountering?
thanks
tim

since this is a DC
Timinwi,

Since you don't care for the Scripts - how about the Scenario,
or possibly the Aeon?

Ideally, one should have speakers that match in timbre and
character - so that when sounds "pan" from one speaker to
another - as an object moves - the characteristics of the
sound don't change because different speakers are involved.

The closest match to your ML Ascents will be other speakers
by Martin Logan. Start at the bottom of the lineup and
work your way up - until you find something you do like.
