Strength:
For the money,they will beat most monopoles,bipolars & some diploes to a pulp.The Scripts must be set-up properly to your ear height.That may included an afternoon of tweaking but once you get there you will not turn back.You will pull young & old recordings out to see what you have missed.I used the Carver TFM-42 & 35X for fronts & Carver Av-705X for the sourrounds.The head unit was a Denon AVR-5700.
Weakness:
Spending time with tweaking for soundstage & envelopement. I've had the Martin-logan Scripts for over 2 yrs now.I use the Scipts as mains.In order to get the max benefit from these work horses,I raised them off the floor about 43" & at least 1 ' away from the sides & back of the wall.Toed-in and a lot of patience(should use a friend)to create a triangle between you & the fronts,for example;if the speakers are 8 ft apart,your listening spot should be 8' with you being 4' in between & 8' back is a good starting point.After placing one of my favorite artist(Seal- "Dreaming In Metaphors")& tweaking for about 30 mins,the soundstage opened with Seal standing dead center of the sweet-spot & his band was across the frontal soundstage & behind me as though I had the 5ch botton on.These speakers were intened for surround but with time & patience they were excellent as mains.The headroom was also great with these dipoles.The Martins produced soundstage,depth,layers of dimensions unheard of by me before now.If you can found them-buy them,you will not be disappointed.
