Well, I'm glad you found something you liked. Thanks for letting us know about the M-L! In general, I think that the sealed enclosures are more elegant, design-wise, but I just haven't heard enough subs to really say which I prefer. How large is the M-L in relation to the driver? My understanding (could be wrong, certainly have been before) is that sealed speakers require larger inner volume (or amplification) than ported subs to produce the same SPL.

Actually, in terms of size, the Grotto was SMALLER than the STF-2, even though both have a 10" woofer.

Hmm..interesting..the Grotto SHOULD have been bigger..but it wasn't.

Unless I'm wrong (gotta say that a lot) that would be why the Martin Logan didn't have the punch you were looking for. My Cambridge Soundworks sub has a rather large enclosure compared to a lot of 12" subs (other than the SVS monsters), since it's sealed. 'Course, it's got a wimpy amp, so I haven't a clue how to works as well as it seems to to me.
