MartinLogan Loudspeakers


MartinLogan makes some of the worlds finest loudspeakers. They pioneered the curved electrostatic driver to get around the problem that other electrostatics have of no dispersion. and they married this CLS driver to dynamic woofers to get full range speakers with the claruty of an electrostat witht he bass and dynamics of a dynamic speaker. Over the years their line has expanded to now include subwoofers and a very high quality line of dynamic speakers that use their Folded Motion® XT tweeter. The subwoofers are excellent and designed to sound great in music systems but they are also very good for multi-channel systems.
 
Motion series

The Motion Series is inspired by the performance of their ultra-high-end electrostatic loudspeakers and is perfect for music or home cinema lovers. They offer full range floor-standing speakers, and gutsy compact bookshelf models, with timbre-matched centers, all featuring MartinLogan’s cutting edge Folded Motion tweeter and backed by exceptional components and hand-built crossovers. They reveal a richly detailed audio experience at unrivalled prices.

The success of the Motion Series is directly attributed to its close relation to MartinLogan’s legendary ultra-high-end electrostatic loudspeakers. The desire to transmute that level of performance into a more traditional loudspeaker at a more affordable price drove the initial design imperatives that created the Motion Series.

Subwoofers
Powerful. Compact. Precise. MartinLogan Dynamo and Blaanced Force subwoofers offer audiophile grade performance, home-friendly aesthetics, and a bevy of wireless features including app based controls, app based Anthem Room Correction, and optional wireless audio connections.

MARTINLOGAN SUB CONTROL APP
(AVAILABLE FOR iOS AND ANDROID)

MartinLogan’s Subwoofer Control app uses a Bluetooth connection to simplify setup and configuration of Dynamo 600X, 800X, 1100X, and 1600X. App based controls include volume level, low-pass filter (frequency and order), phase, 20–30Hz level, three preset listening modes, and control of Anthem Room Correction. A unique tone sweep feature assists users in locating areas in listening rooms where troublesome rattles or resonances may occur. A single press of a button allows listeners to initiate a tone sweep from 20–120Hz. If a rattle or resonance occurs in the room any frequency can be held, allowing the listener to investigate and identify the source of the unwanted noise.

Dynamo 800X
$899.99
Sale $599.00 (only 2 left)

A great sub at a reasonable cost. The 10" long throw driver combined with the 600 watt amp in a sealed box means tight clean bass for quality audio and when combined with the Anthem room correction you get a flat extended bass down to 24Hz.

The Future of Audio: Integrated Systems?

"In the end, bass on this system was deep, controlled, and less distracting than on many systems. I had a greater sense than is usual that bass was just part of the music, not something generated by an audio system." —Tom Martin, The Absolute Sound

MartinLogan Dynamo 1600X Powered Subwoofer Review

"The response I heard in the low bass was fuller than I was expecting and right up there with subwoofers that cost many times more than the Dynamo 1600X. This sub could produce these high levels over sustained periods and never even break a sweat. I mean there really were times I thought the bass would break something in the room but it just kept on keeping on."
