Awards 2012

WINNER

Whereas so many high end speakers are simply variations on the same ‘moving coil drive units in a box’ theme, MartinLogan dares to be different with its artful combination of conventional sub-bass drivers and large, full range electrostatic panels. The result is musical bliss, with vast soundstaging and subtlety so rarely heard, even from expensive designs such as this. A worthy winner!
