We know you are eager to hear your new MartinLogan loudspeakers,

so this section is provided to allow fast and easy set up. Once you have

them operational, please take the time to read, in depth, the rest of

the information in the enclosed manual. It will give you perspective on

how to attain the greatest possible performance from this most exact-

ing transducer.

If you should experience any difficulties in the setup or operation

of your MartinLogan speakers, please refer to the Room Acoustics,

Placement or Operation sections of the enclosed owner’s manual.

Should you encounter a persistent problem that cannot be resolved,

please contact your authorized MartinLogan dealer. They will provide

you with the appropriate technical analysis to alleviate the situation.

Step 1: Unpacking

Remove your new MartinLogan speakers from their packing.

Step 2: Placement

Start by placing the speakers about two feet from any wall and angle

them toward your listening area. Please see the Placement section of

the enclosed manual for more details.

Step 3: Power Connection (AC) (see warning)

Use the best power cords you can. Higher quality power cords, avail-

able from your specialty dealer, are recommended and will give you

superior performance.

MartinLogan speakers require AC power to energize their electrostatic

cells. Using the AC power cords provided, plug them in first to the AC

power receptacle on the rear panel of the speaker, making sure that

you have made a firm connection, and then to the wall outlet. Please

see the Operations section of the enclosed manual for more details.

Step 4: Signal Connection

Use the best speaker cable you can. Higher quality cable, available

from your specialty dealer, is recommended and will give you superior

performance. Spade connectors are suggested for optimum contact

and ease of installation.

Attach your speaker cables to the Signal Input section on the rear

panel. Be consistent when connecting speaker leads to the terminals

on the back of the speaker: take great care to assign the same color to

the (+) terminal on both the left and right channels. If bass is nonex-

istent and you cannot discern a tight, coherent image, you may need

to reverse the (+) and (–) leads on one side to bring the system into

proper polarity.

If your speaker is equipped for Bi-wiring/Passive Bi-amping, turn to the

Operations section of the enclosed manual for proper setup of your

MartinLogan speakers.

Sikkerhedsanvisninger og gode råd om installationen (Dansk/

Danish)

ADVARSEL!

• Undgå at fjerne coveret.

• Overlad alle former for service og reparation til en

kvalificeret tekniker.

• For at undgå elektriske stød og risiko for ildebrand

bør dette produkt ikke udsættes for fugt.

• Afbryd forstærkeren når anlægget ikke er i brug i

længere perioder.

• Afbryd altid forstærkeren før du tilslutter eller afbry-

der forbindelsen til dine højttalere!

• Undgå at belaste højttaleren med højere effekter

end angivet.

• Undgå at anvende højttaleren hvis der er synlige

skader på det elektrostatiske panel.

• Lysnetkablet bør ikke tilsluttes, fjernes eller efter-

lades på gulvet, hvis stikket i den anden ende er

tilsluttet en lysnetkontakt.

• Undgå brugen af åben ild og stearinlys på eller i nær-

heden af højttalerne.

• Undgå konsekvent at stille væskefyldte vaser og glas

på højttalerne.

• Højttalerne bør under ingen omstændigheder

udsættes for fugt eller stænk med væsker.

• Terminalerne der er markeret med lyn-symbolet bør

kun tilsluttes af en faglært installatør eller ved brug af

præfabrikerede kabler monteret med de helt rigtige stik.

• Het netsnoer moet aan een geaarde wandstekker

worden aangesloten.

• Strømkablet skal tilsluttes en stikkontakt med jord.

Vi ved, du er ivrig efter at lytte til dine nye MartinLogan højttalere i

brug, så denne anvisning skal hjælpe dig med at sikre en hurtig og

effektiv ibrugtagning. Så snart højttalerne er tilsluttet og spiller bør du

tage dig tid til grundig gennemlæsning af den medfølgende brugerma-

nual. Den vil give dig indsigt i, hvordan du får det lydmæssigt bedste

udbytte af disse ultra-præcise højttalere.

Hvis du oplever problemer under opstillingen eller brugen af dine

MartinLogan højttalere bør du snarest søge til den medfølgende manu-

als kapitler om Rumakustik, Opstilling og Anvendelse. Skulle der mod

forventning opstå vedvarende fejl, du ikke kan løse på stedet, så tøv

ikke med at kontakte din autoriserede MartinLogan forhandler. Han

har den fornødne tekniske indsigt til at løse problemerne for dig.

Step 1: Udpakning

Pak dine nye MartinLogan højttalere ud og gem emballagen.

Step 2: Opstilling

Placer højttalerne mindst 60 cm fra den nærmeste væg og ret dem lidt

ind mod den foretrukne lytteposition. Du kan søge mere information

om opstillingen i manualens kapitel Opstilling.

Step 3: Tilslutning af strøm (AC) (se advarsel)

MartinLogan’s elektrostatiske højttalere fordrer strømforsyning fra lys-

nettet til opladning af de elektrostatiske paneler. Tilslut først netkablet

til tilslutningspanelet på højttalernes bagside og sørg for at der er god

og sikker forbindelse. Tilslut dernæst den anden ende af netkablet til

lysnetkontakten på væggen. Du kan finde flere instruktioner herom i

den medfølgende manual.

Step 4: Tilslutning

Anvend de bedst mulige højttalerkabler – de har stor betydning for

lyden. Dedikerede højkvalitets højttalerkabler giver markant bedre

lydkvalitet end “lysnetledning”, så det kan ikke betale sig at spare her.

Vi anbefaler kabler med kabelsko, der både har det største kontaktare-

al (minimalt signaltab) og er lette at spænde til, så du får en sikker og

stabil kontakt.

Forbind kablerne omhyggeligt til Signal Input tilslutningerne på

højttalernes bagpanel og vær opmærksom på, at du faser dem kor-

rekt – farvekodning på terminaler og kabler hjælper dig på vej. Hvis

basgengivelsen er svag og lydbilledet forekommer meget diffust er

højttalerne formentlig tilsluttet ude af fase. Så skal du vende polarite-

ten til den ene af højttalerne ved at bytte om på plus (+) og minus (–).

Hvis dine højttalere er udstyret med tilslutninger for Bi-wiring/Passiv

Bi-amping, så spring videre til afsnittet Operations i den medfølgende

manual, så du sikrer dig optimalt udbytte af dine MartinLogan højttalere.

Step 5: Lyt og nyd dine højttalere

We weten dat u staat te popelen om uw nieuwe MartinLogan luid-

sprekers te beluisteren, dus dit gedeelte wordt verstrekt om een snelle

en makkelijke installatie mogelijk te maken.

Zodra ze in gebruik zijn, neem dan de tijd om u in de rest van de

informatie van de bijgevoegde handleiding te verdiepen. Het zal u

meer inzicht geven over hoe u de grootst mogelijke prestaties uit deze

meest nauwkeurige luidsprekers kunt krijgen.

Als u problemen bij de installatie of bediening van uw MartinLogan

luidsprekers zou ervaren, verwijzen wij u naar de “Room Acoustics”,

“Placement”of “Operations” secties van de meegeleverde handlei-

ding. Mocht u een hardnekkig probleem tegenkomen dat niet kan

worden opgelost, neem dan contact op met uw MartinLogan dealer.

Hij zal u deskundig bijstaan om de situatie op te lossen.

Stap 1: Uitpakken

Remove your new MartinLogan speakers from their packing.

Stap 2: Plaatsing

Begin met het plaatsen van de luidsprekers ongeveer 60 cm van de

muur en oriënteer ze iets in de richting van uw luisterpositie. Zie para-

graaf “Placement” van de meegeleverde handleiding voor meer details.

Stap 3: Aansluiting op het lichtnet – (Zie waarschuwing)

MartinLogan luidsprekers moeten op het lichtnet worden aangesloten

om hun elektrostatische panelen van energie te voorzien. Met behulp

van de meegeleverde netsnoeren, sluit ze eerst in het stopcontact aan

de achterzijde van de luidspreker aan, zorg ervoor dat u een stevige

verbinding heeft gemaakt en sluit ze vervolgens aan een wandstekker

van het lichtnet. Zie sectie “Operations” van de meegeleverde hand-

leiding voor meer details.

Stap 4: Signaalverbinding

Gebruik de beste luidsprekerkabels die u kunt. Hogere kwaliteit kabel,

verkrijgbaar bij uw speciaalzaak, is aanbevolen en zal u superieure

prestaties geven. Vork connectoren worden aanbevolen voor optimaal

contact en installatiegemak.

Bevestig uw luidsprekerkabels aan de “Signal Input” luidsprekeraan-

sluitingen op het achterpaneel. Werk zorgvuldig bij het aansluiten van

de luidsprekerkabels aan de achterkant van de luidspreker en verzeker

u ervan dezelfde kleur aan de (+) aansluiting, op zowel het linker als

het rechter kanaal, toe te wijzen. Indien de laagweergave zwak klinkt

en u kunt geen strak, coherent stereobeeld krijgen, dan kan het nodig

zijn om de (+) en (-) kabels van één van de luidsprekers om te wisse-

len om het systeem in de juiste fase te brengen.

Als uw luidspreker is uitgerust voor Bi-wiring/Passieve Bi-amping,

verwijzen wij u naar de “Operations” sectie van de meegeleverde

handleiding voor de juiste instelling van uw MartinLogan luidsprekers.

Turvallisuus- ja asennusohjeet lyhyesti (Suomi/Finnish)

Varoitus!

• Sähköiskun vaara — älä avaa laitetta.

• Anna huolto ammattilaisen tehtäväksi.

• Tulipalon tai sähköiskun välttämiseksi älä altista lai-

tetta kosteudelle.

• Kytke vahvistimesta ja kaiuttimista virta pois, jos lait-

teeseen tulee jokin vika.

• Kytke vahvistin pois päältä ennen kuin liität laitteisiin

johtoja!

• Älä käytä laitetta, jos paneelissa on jokin näkyvä

vika.

• Älä ylitä kaiuttimien suositusvoimakkuutta.

• Virtajohtoa ei pidä asentaa tai irrottaa silloin kun kai-

utinjohto on kytketty virtaan.

• Älä aseta kynttilää tai avointa tulta kaiuttimen päälle.

• Älä aseta nestettä sisältävää vaasia kaiuttimen päälle.

• Kaiutinta ei pidä altistaa roiskuville nesteille.

• Ne liitännät, joissa on salamamerkki, on tarkoitettu

vain asiantuntijan kytkettäviksi.

• Virtajohto on kytkettävä suojamaadoitettuun pisto-

rasiaan.

Tiedämme, että olet innokas kuuntelemaan heti uusia MartinLogan

kaiuttimia, mutta lue tämä kappale ennen asentamista. Sitten kun olet

saanut kaiuttimet toimimaan, ole hyvä ja lue ajan kanssa käyttöohjeet

syvällisemmin. Näin saat tietoa siitä, miten saat kaiuttimista parhaan

mahdollisen suorituskyvyn.

Jos sinulla on vaikeuksia saada MartinLogan-kaiuttimet toimimaan

huoneessa, ole hyvä ja katso ”Room Acoustics”, ”Placement or

Operation” kappaleet käyttäjän käsikirjassa. Jos törmäät ongelmaan,

jota et pysty ratkaisemaan, ota yhteyttä valtuutettuun MartinLogan-

myyjään, niin hän tekee teknisen analyysin tilanteesta.

Vaihe 1: Pakkauksen avaus

Poista uudet MartinLogan-kaiuttimet pakkauksistaan.

Vaihe 2: Sijoitus

Aseta kaiuttimet vähintään reilun puolen metrin päähän seinis-

tä ja käännä ne hieman kohti kuuntelualuetta. Ole hyvä ja katso

”Placement” kappale käyttöohjeessa

Vaihe 3: Virtakytkentä (katso varoitus)

MartinLogan-kaiuttimet tarvitsevat virtaa aktivoidakseen elektrostaatti-

sen paneelin. Virtajohto pitää kytkeä ensin kaiuttimen takapaneelissa

olevaan liittimeen ja vasta sen jälkeen pistorasiaan. Ole hyvä ja katso

”Operations” kappale käyttöohjeessa.

Vaihe 4: Signaalikaapeleiden kytkentä

Käytä vain parhaita kaiutinkaapeleita. Korkealaatuinen kaapeli, jota

myydään erikoisliikkeessä, on suoriteltava sen takia, koska silloin saat

kaiuttimistasi parhaimman suorituskyvyn. Haarukkaliittimet takaavat

optimaalisen kontaktin ja helpottavat asentamista.

Kytke kaiutinkaapelit takapaneelin “Signal Input” osaan. Ole johdon-

mukainen kytkiessäsi kaiutinkaapelin päät kaiuttimen liitinpaneeliin:

erittäin tärkeää on kytkeä sama väri (+) liittimeen vasemmassa ja

oikeassa kanavassa. Jos basso ei kuulu kunnolla tai stereokuva on

häilyvä, sinun tarvitsee kääntää (+) ja (–) johdot toisessa kanavassa saa-

daksesi oikean vaiheen.

Jos kaiuttimesi on varustettu kaksoisjohdotuksella, katso “Operations”

kappale käyttöohjeessa varmistaaksesi oikean asennuksen

MartinLogan-kaiuttimille.

Vaihe 5: Kuuntele ja nauti

Avviso sulla sicurezza ed installazione in breve (Italiano/Italian)

AVVISO!

• Non aprire i diffusori. All’interno sono presenti ten-

sioni pericolose.

• In caso di necessità rivolgiti solo a personale qualifi-

cato.

• Per prevenire pericoli d’incendio o di scossa elettri-

ca, non esporre il diffusore all’umidità.

presa di corrente in caso di funzionamento anomalo.

• Spegni l’amplificatore prima di intervenire sulle con-

nessioni audio

• Non far funzionare i diffusori se il pannello elettro-

statico appare danneggiato.

• Non portare i diffusori oltre i limiti di potenza

dichiarata.

• Il cordone di alimentazione non deve essere inseri-

to, rimosso o lasciato staccato dal diffusore mentre

l’altra estremità è connessa ad una presa di corrente.

• Non porre sui diffusori candele od altre sorgenti di

fiamme libere.

• Non porre sui diffusori recipienti contenenti liquidi.

• Non lasciare i diffusori in luoghi sottoposti all’azione

di liquidi.

• I terminali contrassegnati dal simbolo del fulmi-

ne devono essere connessi da persona esperta o

mediante appositi connettori.

• Il cordone di alimentazione deve essere facilmente

accessibile ed utilizzabile in caso possano verificarsi

condizioni anomale.

Ben conosciamo il tuo desiderio di ascoltare quanto prima i nuovi

diffusori Martin Logan, quindi abbiamo qui riportato le istruzioni per

un’installazione rapida ed agevole. Una volta messi in funzione i dif-

fusori, leggi con molta attenzione tutte le altre informazioni esposte

nel manuale fornito, in modo da avere una chiara prospettiva su come

ottenere la massima qualità da prodotti così impegnativi.

In caso di difficoltà nelle fasi di messa a punto o nel funzionamento,

vedi le sezioni Acustica dell’ambiente, Disposizione e Funzionamento

del manuale d’istruzioni fornito.

Per altri problemi di difficile soluzione, rivolgiti al rivenditore autoriz-

zato Martin Logan, che ti fornirà tutta l’assistenza tecnica necessaria

per risolvere la situazione.

1 – Apertura dell’imballo

Togli i diffusori dall’imballo.

2 – Disposizione

Poni i diffusori ad una distanza di almeno cm 60 da qualsiasi pare-

te, rivolgendoli leggermente verso il punto d’ascolto. Vedi la sezione

Disposizione del manuale fornito per maggiori dettagli.

3 – Connessioni AC (vedi l’avviso qui sopra)

I diffusori elettrostatici Martin Logan richiedono una certa energia per

il loro funzionamento. Connetti il cordone di alimentazione fornito al

connettore posto sul pannello posteriore dei diffusori. Controlla la sta-

bilità della connessione appena eseguita, poi inserisci la spina all’altra

estremità del cordone in una presa di corrente. Infine, per maggiori det-

tagli, vedi la sezione Funzionamento sul manuale d’istruzioni allegato.

4 – Connessioni audio

Usa cavi di alta qualità, disponibili presso il rivenditore e capaci di

restituire un comportamento sonoro superiore. Si consiglia l’impiego

di connettori a forcella per l’ottimo contatto e la facilità d’installazione.

Collega i cavi agli ingressi sul pannello posteriore dei diffusori. Fai

molta attenzione ed assegna lo stesso colore dei cavi ai terminali

positivi (+) sia sul diffusore del canale destro, sia su quello del canale

sinistro. Se l’immagine sonora apparisse incerta e priva di coerenza e

le frequenze basse si rivelassero insufficienti, prova ad invertire le con-

nessioni (+) e (–), per riportare il sistema alla corretta polarità.

Se per i diffusori è prevista la configurazione in bicollegamento/biam-

plificazione passiva, vedi la sezione Funzionamento sul manuale

allegato per le istruzioni relative all’ottimizzazione.

5 – Siediti e…Buoni ascolti.

Instruções de Segurança e Breve Manual de Instalação

(Português/Portuguese)

ATENÇÃO!

• Voltagens perigosas no interior - não retire a tampa.

• Para assistência dirija-se a um técnico especializado.

• Para evitar incêndios ou choques eléctricos, não

exponha este módulo a humidades.

• Em caso de situações anormais desligue o amplifica-

dor e retire as fichas das colunas.

• Desligue o amplificador antes de efectuar ou inter-

romper qualquer ligação de sinal!

• Não as ligue se verificar que existe algum dano no

painel electrostático.

• Não ultrapasse a potência nominal dos altifalantes

das colunas.

• O cabo de corrente não deve ser colocado, retirado

ou ficar solto da coluna enquanto a outra extremida-

de estiver ligada a uma fonte de corrente AC.

• As velas ou outras formas de chama aberta não

devem ser colocadas sobre as colunas.

• Não colocar qualquer líquido, mesmo em copos ou

taças, sobre as colunas.

• A coluna não deve estar exposta a gotas ou salpicos

de líquidos.

• Os terminais marcados com o símbolo do relâmpa-

go devem ser ligados por uma pessoa experiente ou

pela utilização de terminais já prontos.

• O cabo de potência deve remanescer prontamente

acessível e operável se todas as circunstâncias anor-

mais ocorrerem.

• O cabo de corrente tem que ser ligado à tomada da

corrente com uma ligação à terra.

Sabemos que está ansioso por ouvir o som das suas novas colunas

MartinLogan pelo que criámos esta secção para permitir uma instalação

mais rápida e fácil. Uma vez que tenha as colunas a funcionar, por favor

disponibilize algum tempo para ler com atenção a restante informação

incluída no manual. Dar-lhe-á uma perspectiva correcta sobre como obter

o melhor desempenho possível deste transdutor excepcionalmente preciso.

No caso de se deparar com alguma dificuldade na instalação e funcio-

namento das suas colunas MartinLogan, por favor consulte as secções

Room Acoustics (Ambiente Acústico), Placement (Posicionamento) ou

Operation (Funcionamento) deste manual.

Se encontrar um problema persistente que não consiga resolver, por

favor contacte um agente autorizado. Este garantirá a análise técnica

adequada para resolver a situação.

Etapa 1: Desembalar

Retire as suas novas colunas MartinLogan da respectiva caixa.

Etapa 2: Posicionamento

Coloque as colunas a pelo menos 61 cm de distância das paredes

e vire-as ligeiramente na direcção do seu ponto de audição. Este

é um bom ponto de partida. Por favor consulte a secção Placement

(Posicionamento) deste manual para obter mais pormenores.

Etapa 3: Ligação à Corrente (AC) (ver o aviso)

As colunas MartinLogan necessitam de corrente AC para esti-

mular as células electrostáticas. Ligue os cabos de corrente AC

fornecidos, primeiro à ficha de corrente AC no painel traseiro da

coluna, certificando-se que faz a ligação com firmeza, e de seguida

ligue-os à tomada da parede. Por favor consulte a secção Operations

(Funcionamento) deste manual para mais detalhes.

Etapa 4: Ligação do Sinal

Utilize os melhores cabos possíveis na ligação das colunas.

Recomendamos a utilização de cabos da melhor qualidade, disponíveis

no seu agente ou em lojas especializadas, que proporcionarão uma per-

formance superior. Os terminais de forquilha são os mais indicados pois

proporcionam o contacto ideal e facilitam as ligações.

Ligue os seus cabos para colunas na secção Signal Input (Entrada de Sinal)

existente no painel traseiro. Tenha atenção ao ligar os cabos aos terminais

das colunas existentes na parte de trás da coluna: tenha muito cuidado

para ligar a mesma cor ao terminal (+) existente nos canais esquerdo e

direito. Se não existirem graves e não conseguir obter uma imagem este-

reofónica que soe clara e coerente, poderá ser necessário inverter os cabos

(+) e (–) de um dos lados para colocar o sistema na polaridade correcta.

Se as suas colunas estiverem equipadas para bi-cablagem/bi-amplifica-

ção consulte a secção Operations (Funcionamento) deste manual para

uma ligação correcta das suas colunas MartinLogan.

Etapa 5: Ouvir e Desfrutar.

Säkerhetsanvisningar och goda råd om installationen (Svenska/

Swedish)

VARNING!

• Undvik att ta isär produkten.

• Överlåt alla former av service och reparation till en

kvalificerad tekniker.

• För att undgå brandfara och elektrisk stöt bör denna

produkt inte utsättas för fukt.

• Stäng av förstärkaren när anläggningen inte skall

användas under längre perioder.

• Stäng alltid av förstärkaren innan du ansluter eller

kopplar ur dina högtalare.

• Undvik att belasta högtalaren med högre effekter än

angivet.

• Undvik att använda högtalaren om det uppstått syn-

liga skador på elektrostatpanelen.

• Nätkabel bör inte anslutas, urkopplas eller kvarläm-

nas på golvet om stickkontakten i den andra änden

är ansluten till ett nätuttag.

• Undvik användning av öppen eld och stearinljus på

eller i närheten av högtalarna.

• Undvik alltid att ställa vätskefyllda vaser och glas på

högtalarna.

• Högtalarna bör under inga omständigheter utsättas

för fukt eller stänk från vätskor.

• Terminaler markerade med blixt-symbolen bör

endast anslutas av en sakkunnig installatör eller med

användande av prefabrikerade kablar med rätta

kontakter monterade.

• Strömsladden måste vara ansluten till jordat väggut-

tag.

Vi vet att du är ivrig efter att få lyssna till dina nya MartinLogan

högtalare. Dessa anvisningar skall hjälpa dig att komma igång så snabbt

och effektivt som möjligt. Så snart högtalarna är anslutna och spelar

bör du ta dig den tid som krävs till en grundlig genomläsning av den

medföljande användarhandboken. Den kan hjälpa dig att få nödvän-

dig insikt i hur du kan få det ljudmässigt bästa utbytet av dessa ytterst

högkvalitativa högtalare.

Uppstår det problem under uppställning eller användning av dina

MartinLogan högtalare bör du snarast söka råd i den medföljan-

de användarhandbokens kapitel om rumsakustik, uppställning och

användning. Skulle det mot förmodan uppstå ett bestående problem

du inte direkt kan lösa, skall du inte tveka att snarast kontakta din auk-

toriserade MartinLogan handlare. Han har den tekniska insikt som

krävs för att lösa problemen för dig.

Steg 1: Uppackning. Packa upp dina nya MartinLogan högtalare och

spar emballaget.

Steg 2: Placering. Placera högtalarna minst 60 cm från närmaste vägg

och rikta dem något inåt mot din lyssningsposition. Du kan hitta ytter-

ligare information om placering i användarhandbokens kapitel om

placering.

Steg 3: Nätanslutning (AC) (se varning). MartinLogans elek-

trostathögtalare kräver ström från nätuttag för uppladdning av

elektrostatpanelerna. Anslut först nätkabeln till anslutningspanelen på

högtalarens baksida och se till att det finns en bra och säker förbindel-

se. Anslut sedan den andra änden av nätkabeln till nätuttaget i väggen.

Du kan hitta fler instruktioner om detta i den medföljande användar-

handboken.

Steg 4: Anslu tni ng. Använd bästa möjliga högtalarka-

blar - det har stor betydelse för ljudet. Högtalarkablar av hög

kvalitet ger markant högre ljudkvalitet än “lampsladd”, så det

lönar sig inte att spara. Vi rekommenderar kablar med kabel-

skor, vilket både har störst kontaktyta (minimal signalreduktion)

och är lätta att spänna till så att du får en säker och stabil kontakt.

Koppla omsorgsfullt kablarna till anslutningarna på högtalarnas bakpanel

och var uppmärksam på att du gör det med korrekt fas - här får du hjälp

av färgkodningen på terminaler och kablar. Om basåtergivningen är svag

och ljudbilden verkar mycket diffus är högtalarna förmodligen anslutna

ur fas. Då skall du vända polariteten till den ena högtalaren genom att

byta om på plus (+) och minus (–).

Är dina högtalare försedda med anslutningar för Bi-wiring/

passiv Bi-amping, gå vidare till avsnittet om användning i den med-

följande användarhandboken så att du kan få optimalt utbyte av dina

MartinLogan högtalare.

Steg 5: Lyssna och njut!

CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS

AC Power Connection

Because your MartinLogan speakers use an internal power

supply to energize their electrostatic cells and the ampli-

fied woofer system they must be connected to an AC power

source. For this reason they are provided with the proper IEC

standard power cords. These cords should be firmly inserted

into the AC power receptacles on the rear connection panel

of the speakers, then to any convenient AC wall outlet. The

speakers integrate a signal sensing power supply which will

switch off after several minutes of no music signal, and requires

less than two seconds to recharge the panels when a music sig-

nal is present.

Higher quality power cords, available from your audio dealer,

are recommended.

A variety of power cords are available

whose

manufacturers claim better performance than standard

power cords. The effects of power cords may be masked if

your associated equipment is not of the highest quality.

Your speakers are wired for the power service supplied in the

country of original consumer sale. The AC power rating applicable

to a particular unit is specified both on the packing carton and on

the serial number plate attached to the speaker. If you remove

your speakers from the country of original sale, be certain that the

AC power supplied in any subsequent location is suitable before

connecting and operating the speakers. Substantially impaired

performance or severe damage may occur to a speaker if opera-

tion is attempted from an incorrect AC power source.

WARNING! The power cord should not be installed,

removed, or left detached from the speaker while the

other end is connected to an AC power source.

Signal Input Connection

Use the best speaker cables you can. The length and type of

speaker cable used in your system will have an audible effect.

Under no circumstance should a wire of gauge higher (thin-

ner) than #16 be used. In general, the longer the length used,

the greater the necessity of a lower gauge, and the lower the

gauge, the better the sound, with diminishing returns setting in

around #8 to #12.

A variety of cables are available whose

manufacturers claim

better performance than standard heavy gauge wire. We have

verified this in many cases, and the improvements available

are often more noticeable than the differences between wires

of different gauge. The effects of cables may be masked if

equipment is not of the highest quality.

Connections are done at the signal input section on the rear

electronics panel of the speaker. Use spade connectors for opti-

mum contact and ease of installation. Hand tighten the binding

posts, but do not overtighten—do not use a tool to tighten the

binding posts.

Be consistent when connecting the speaker cables to the signal

input terminals. Take care to assign the same color cable lead

to the (+) terminal on both the left and right channel speakers.

If bass is nonexistent and you cannot discern a tight, coherent

image, you may need to reverse the (+) and (–) leads on one

speaker to bring the system into proper polarity.

WARNING! Turn your amplifier off before making or

breaking any signal connections!

Break-In

When you first begin to play your speakers, they will sound

a bit bass shy. This is due to the high quality, long-life com-

ponents used in our woofer. Our custom made woofer

requires approximately 72 hours of break-in at 90 dB (moder-

ate listening levels) before any critical listening. The break-in

requirements of the crossover components (and, to a lesser

degree, the stator) are equivalent.

ARC Setup Speaker Link

This RJ-45 (Ethernet style) connection is used to connect your

two speakers together when running ARC. Please refer to the

“Anthem Room Correction (ARC) Setup” section of this manu-

al for more information.

ARC Setup Input

This mini-USB connection is used to connect your speaker to a com-

puter for ARC setup. Please refer to the “Anthem Room Correction

(ARC) Setup” section of this manual for more information.

ARC Status

The ARC Status light indicates the following statuses:

• ARC is off.No color:

• Solid Green: ARC is on. Correction filter is installed.

• Blinking Red: ARC is on. No correction filter installed.

• Solid Red: Computer connected to USB input or speak-

ers connected via ARC Setup Speaker Link.

ARC Room EQ

This switch allows you to turn ARC correction on and off after

a correction curve is loaded onto your speaker.

Signal Input

Please refer to the “Signal Input Connection” section on the

previous page of this manual.

Mid-Bass Control

The Mid-Bass Control knob adjusts the mid-bass level by

–2dB, 0dB, or +2dB. This setting is dependent on room size

and construction, system configuration, and, (most impor-

tantly) personal preference. Turning the control up (+2dB) will

generally result in a fuller sound. Turning it down (–2dB) will

generally results in a lighter, airy sound. We encourage you

to experiment with mid-bass levels and trust your ears when

picking the final setting for this control.

Before deciding on a final setting for the mid-bass level consid-

er running ARC to eliminate room interactions. When running

ARC, the Mid-Bass Control switch will not affect the ARC mea-

surement.

Speaker Status

The Speaker Status light indicates the following statuses:

• Solid Green: The speaker is operational.

• Solid Red: The speaker is in standby mode.

• Blinking Red: Error mode. The speaker will resume nor-

mal operation when the error has cleared. If speaker does

not exit the red blinking error mode after 30 minutes, the

speaker should be unplugged and plugged back in. The

speaker requires servicing if the red blinking error mode

persists after being unplugged and plugged back in.

• Blinking Red/Green: Thermal protection mode. The

amplifier(s) have entered thermal protection mode

and will resume normal operation when temperatures

decrease to safer levels. If speaker does not exit the red/

green blinking error mode after 30 minutes, the speaker

should be unplugged and plugged back in. The speaker

requires servicing if the red/green blinking error mode

persists after being unplugged and plugged back in.

Bass Control

The Bass Control knob adjusts the level under 75Hz by

±10dB. This is an area where peaks and dips of different

amplitudes often manifest in real environments. This setting is

dependent on room size and construction, system configura-

tion and personal preference. Before adjusting the bass control

knob, consider running ARC to eliminate room interactions.

When running an ARC measurement the setting of the bass

control knob will not affect the ARC measurement.

PLACEMENT

Listening Position

Start with the rear of your speakers placed approximately eight

to twelve inches from the front wall (the wall in front of the lis-

tening position). Your sitting distance should be further than the

distance between the speakers themselves. You are trying to

attain the impression of good center imaging and stage width.

There is no exact distance between speakers and listener,

but there is a relationship. In long rooms, naturally, that rela-

tionship changes. The distance between the speakers will

be far less than the distance from you to the speaker system.

However, in a wide room, you will still find that if the distance

from the listener to the speakers becomes smaller than the

distance between the speakers themselves, the image will no

longer focus in the center.

Now that you have positioned your speaker system, spend

time listening. Wait to make any major changes in your initial

setup for the next few days as the speaker system itself will

change subtly in its sound. Over the first 72 hours of play the

actual tonal quality will change slightly with deeper bass and

more spacious highs resulting. After a few days of listening you

can begin to make refinements and hear the differences.

The Wall Behind the Listener

Near-field reflections can also occur from your back wall

(the wall behind the listening position). If your listening posi-

tion is close to the back wall, these reflections can cause

problems and confuse imaging quality. It is better for the

wall behind you to be absorptive than to be reflective. If you

have a hard back wall and your listening position is close to

it, experiment with devices that will absorb information (i.e.

wall hangings and possibly even sound absorbing panels).

The Wall Behind the Speakers

The front surface, the wall behind the speakers, should not

be extremely hard or soft. A pane of glass will cause reflec-

tions, brightness and confused imaging. Curtains, drapery

and objects such as bookshelves can be placed along the

wall to diffuse an overly reflective surface. A standard sheet

rock or textured wall is generally an adequate surface if the

rest of the room is not too bright and hard. Walls can also

be too soft. If the entire front wall consists of heavy drap-

ery, your system can sound dull. You may hear muted music

with little ambience. Harder surfaces will actually help in

this case.

The front surface ideally should be one long wall without

any doors or openings. If you have openings, the reflection

and bass characteristics from each channel can be different.

The Side Walls

A good rule of thumb is to have the side walls as far away from

the speaker sides as possible. However, MartinLogan’s unique

controlled dispersion electrostatic transducer inherently mini-

mizes side wall reflections—a position as little as two feet or

less from the side walls often proves adequate. Sometimes, if

the system is bright or the imaging is not to your liking, and the

side walls are very near, try putting curtains or softening mate-

rial directly to the edge of each speaker. An ideal side wall,

however, is no side wall at all.

Experimentation

Bass Response—Your bass response should neither be

one note nor should it be too heavy. It should extend to the

deepest organ passages and yet be tight and well defined.

Kick-drums should be tight and percussive—string bass notes

should be uniform and consistent throughout the entirety of

the run without booming or thudding.

Tonal Balance—Voices should be natural and full and cym-

bals should be detailed and articulate yet not bright and

piercing, pianos should have a nice transient characteristic and

deep tonal registers. If you cannot attain these virtues, read

the section on Room Acoustics. This will give you clues on

how to get closer to these ideal virtues.

ANTHEM ROOM CORRECTION (ARC™) SETUP

NOTE: The full procedure for running ARC room correction

is outlined in the ARC manual. The ARC kit is sold separately.

Your speakers are designed with an active woofer system

including Anthem Room Correction for optimizing your

speaker’s low-frequency output within your room. The ARC

system employs your computer*, connected via USB cables to

a microphone and your speakers. ARC processes information

from multiple data points and configures the optimal solution,

achieving pinpoint-accurate room response.

ARC utilizes multiple measurement points, at least five—but

up to ten—individual data positions, allowing ARC to learn the

individual characteristics of your room. ARC software employs

your computer’s processor to calculate correction curves for

each measurement point, substantially minimizing the round-

ing errors of less sophisticated “calculators”, like those used

in standard room equalization systems. Additionally, ARC

software is capable of calibrating itself to the individual micro-

phone included in the kit, eliminating interference that would

otherwise skew the data.

Although ARC is designed to adjust the woofer’s output to

minimize sonic anomalies caused by room interactions, it is

always recommended to use traditional methods to achieve

a flat response before implementing digitally based room cor-

rection. Remember, speaker placement is one of the most

influential parameters when dealing with anomalous low-

frequency room interactions—listening position is equally

important to bass response but is often dictated by other fac-

tors that are more difficult to change.

ARC is not a replacement for other room correction systems

designed to optimize multi-channel audio systems across the

entire frequency range. When beginning the task of optimizing

an audio system’s performance, the first step should always be

proper setup of the front, center, and surround speakers. Proper

setup of these speakers requires proper positioning, toe in, and

(if available) adjusting a speaker’s built-in bass level controls.

The next step should be running ARC to adjust the individual

speakers active woofer output to account for room interactions.

Only after proper setup of speakers and/or subwoofer(s), includ-

ing running ARC on the individual speaker, is it time to run your

processor’s full-range room correction system to help balance

overall system performance within the room.

ARC: Speaker and Computer Connection

For ARC instructions, please visit MartinLogan.com.

NOTE: If you own a PBK (Perfect Bass Kit), you can use it to run

ARC on your speakers! The PBK microphone will work with the

ARC-2 software used to measure your speakers. However, please

note, ARC microphones are not compatible with the PBK soft-

ware used with your subwoofer.

• Before running ARC, setup your speakers by adjusting

speaker placement, toe-in, and, if necessary, the rake

(tilting the speaker backward and forward).

• During measurement ARC overrides the settings of the

Bass and Mid-Bass controls. These controls do not effect

ARC measurements. After the ARC correction curve has

been uploaded to the speaker these controls can be used

to fine tune the speaker’s performance.

•

On the rear panel of your speaker is an RJ-45 (Ethernet

style) port labeled “ARC Setup Speaker Link”. Use an

Ethernet cable to tether a stereo pair of speakers together by

connecting these RJ-45 ports. This allows you run ARC mea-

surements on a stereo pair of speakers while only having

to run the ARC software once. Please note, tethering your

speakers together is not required and will not change the

final measurements. You can run ARC separately on each

speaker—you will just need to run the ARC software twice.

• On the rear panel of your speaker is a mini-USB port

labeled “ARC Setup Input”. Use a mini-USB to USB-A

cable to connect the speaker to your computer*. Either

one of speaker can be used for this connection.

• The ARC microphone will connect to your computer*

using a mini-USB to USB-A cable.

ARC Status LED

The ARC Status light indicates the following statuses:

• ARC is off.No color:

• Solid Green: ARC is on. Correction filter is installed.

• Blinking Red: ARC is on. No correction filter installed.

• Solid Red: Computer connected to USB input or speak-

ers connected via ARC Setup Speaker Link.

*NOTE: Please refer to ARC manual and related instructions for

computer compatibility information when running ARC.

ROOM ACOUSTICS

Your Room

This is one of those areas that requires both a little background

to understand and some time and experimentation to obtain

the best performance from your system. Your room is actually

a component and an important part of your system. This com-

ponent is a very large variable and can dramatically add to, or

subtract from, a great musical experience.

All sound is composed of waves. Each note has its own wave

size, with the lower bass notes literally encompassing from 10’

feet to as much as 40’ feet. Your room participates in this wave

experience like a three dimensional pool with waves reflecting

and becoming enhanced depending on the size of the room

and the types of surfaces in the room.

Remember, your system can literally generate all of the infor-

mation required to recreate a musical event in time, space,

and tonal balance. Ideally, your room should not contribute

to that information. However, every room contributes to the

sound to some degree. Fortunately MartinLogan had designed

your speaker to minimize these anomalies

Let’s talk about a few important terms before we begin.

Terminology

Standing Waves

The parallel walls in your room will reinforce certain notes to

the point that they will sound louder than the rest of the audio

spectrum and cause “one note bass”, “boomy bass” or “bloat-

ed bass”. For instance, 100Hz represents a 10 feet wavelength.

Your room will reinforce that specific frequency if one of the

dominant dimensions is 10 feet. Large objects in the room

such as cabinetry or furniture can help to minimize this poten-

tial problem. Some serious “audiophiles” will literally build a

special room with no parallel walls just to help eliminate this

phenomenon.

Reflective Surfaces (near-field reflections)

The hard surfaces of your room, particularly if close to your

speaker system, will reflect some waves back into the room

over and over again, confusing the clarity and imaging of your

system. The smaller sound waves are mostly affected here, and

occur in the mid and high frequencies. This is where voice and

frequencies as high as the cymbals occur.

Resonant Surfaces and Objects

All of the surfaces and objects in your room are subject to

the frequencies generated by your system. Much like an

instrument, they will vibrate and “carry on” in syncopa-

tion with the music, and contribute in a negative way to the

music. Ringing, boominess, and even brightness can occur

simply because they are “singing along” with your music.

Resonant Cavities

Small alcoves or closet type areas in your room can be cham-

bers that create their own “standing waves” and can drum

their own “one note” sounds.

Clap your hands. Can you hear an instant echo respond back?

You have near-field reflections. Stomp your foot on the floor.

Can you hear a “boom”? You have standing waves or large

panel resonances such as a poorly supported wall. Put your

head in a small cavity area and talk loudly. Can you hear a

booming? You’ve just experienced a cavity resonance.

Rules of Thumb

Hard vs. Soft Surfaces

If the front or back wall of your listening room is soft, it might

benefit you to have a hard or reflective wall in opposition. The

ceiling and floor should follow the same basic guideline as

well. However, the side walls should be roughly the same in

order to deliver a focused image.

This rule suggests that a little reflection is good. As a matter of

fact, some rooms can be so “over damped” with carpeting,

drapes and sound absorbers that the music system can sound

dull and lifeless. On the other hand, rooms can be so hard that

the system can sound like a gymnasium with too much reflec-

tion and brightness. The point is that balance is the optimum

environment.

Breakup Objects

Objects with complex shapes, such as bookshelves, cabinetry

and multiple shaped walls can help break up those sonic grem-

lins and diffuse any dominant frequencies.

English

Solid Coupling

Your loudspeaker system generates frequency vibrations or

waves into the room. This is how it creates sound. These vibra-

tions vary from 20 per second to 20,000 per second. If your

speaker system is not securely planted on the floor or solid

surface, it can shake as it produces sound and, consequently,

the sound can be compromised. If your speaker is sitting on

the carpet and only foot gliders are used, the bass can be ill

defined and even boomy. The use of spikes is recommended

to insure secured footing for your speakers. (See ‘Solid Footing’

for spike information and installation instructions).

Dipolar Speakers and Your Room

MartinLogan electrostatic loudspeakers are known as dipolar

radiators. This means that they produce sound from both their

fronts and their backs. Consequently, musical information is

reflected by the wall behind them and may arrive, either in

or out of step, with the information produced by the front of

the speaker.

The low frequencies can either be enhanced or nulled by the

position from the front wall. Your speakers have been designed

to be placed eight to twelve inches from the front wall (the

wall in front of the listening position) to obtain the best results;

however, your room may see things differently. So listening to

the difference of the bass response as a result of the changes in

distance from the front wall can allow you to get the best com-

bination of depth of bass and tonal balance.

Now that you know about reflective surfaces and resonant

objects, you can see how the midrange and high frequencies

can be affected. The timing of the initial wave as it radiates

to your ears, and then the reflected information as it arrives

at your ears later in time, can result in confusion of the pre-

cious timing information that carries the clues to imaging.

Consequently the result is blurred imaging and excessive

brightness. Soft walls, curtains, wall hangings, or sound damp-

eners (your dealer can give you good information here) can be

effective if these negative conditions occur.

Solid Footing

After living and experimenting with your speaker’s placement

you will want to use the ETC (energy transfer coupler) spikes sup-

plied with the speaker. With the use of these spikes, the speaker

will become more firmly planted on the floor and, consequently,

bass will tighten and imaging will become more coherent and

detailed. It is best not to implement the spikes, however, until you

are secure in the positioning, as the spikes can damage the floor

if the speaker is moved. The feet that attach to the bottom of the

speaker use a common 1/4 - 20 thread.

Spike Installation Instructions:

1 Carefully tilt the speaker or lay it on its side to gain access

to the bottom. This may require 2 people.

2 Remove existing feet. Thread new spikes into holes and

screw them in all of the way. If the speaker does not sit

level loosen one spike until level is achieved.

3 Tighten the jam nut snugly by hand. Do not over tighten

the nut.

4 Right the speaker. Make sure your hands and Caution:

any cabling are clear of the spikes. Do not slide speaker as

spikes are sharp and can damage your floor or carpet.

5 Adjust to level by rotating spikes. Tighten the jam nut

securely when satisfied that speaker is level. Caution:

Walking the speaker may result in a broken spike.

The ETC™ Spike.

English

It had long been the practice of stereo buffs to connect their

television to a stereo system. The advantage was the use of the

larger speakers and more powerful amplifier of the stereo sys-

tem. Even though the sound was greatly improved, it was still

mono and limited by the broadcast signal.

In the late 1970’s and early 1980’s two new home movie for-

mats became widely available to the public: VCR and laser disc.

By 1985, both formats had developed into very high quality

audio/video sources. In fact, the sonic performance of some

video formats exceeded audio-only formats. Now, with the-

ater-quality sound available at home, the only element missing

was the "surround sound" presentation found in movie houses.

Fortunately, Dolby and DTS encoded movies (including almost

all films) have the same surround sound information encoded

on home releases as the theatrical release. All that is required

to retrieve this information is a decoder and additional speak-

ers and amps to reproduce it.

Home theater is a complex purchase and we recommend that

you consult your local MartinLogan dealer, as they are well

versed in this subject.

Each piece of a surround system can be purchased separately.

Take your time and buy quality. No one has ever complained

that the movie was too real. The following list and descriptions

will give you only a brief outline of the responsibilities and

demands placed on each speaker.

Front Left and Front Right

If these speakers will be the same two used for your stereo

playback, they should be of very high quality and able to play

loudly (over 102 dB) and reproduce bass below 80 Hz.

Center Channel

This is the most important speaker in a home theater

system, as almost all of the dialogue and a large portion of the

front speaker information is reproduced by the center channel.

It is important that the center speaker be extremely accurate

and mate well the front speakers, and that it is recommended

for use as a center speaker. This is not the place to cut corners.

Surround Speakers

We recommend (along with the film industry) that the sur-

round speakers play down to at least 80 Hz. Surround speakers

contain the information that makes it appear that planes are

flying over your head. Some may suggest that this is the place

to save money and purchase a small, inexpensive speaker. If

you choose to do so, be prepared to upgrade in the future as

discrete multi-channel digital encoding is proliferating rapidly

and the demands on surround speakers have increased.

Subwoofer

With any good surround system you will need one or more

high-quality subwoofers (the .1 in a 5.1 channel surround sys-

tem). Most movie soundtracks contain large amounts of bass

information as part of the special effects. Good subwoofers

will provide a foundation for the rest of the system.

and rear and side surround (effects) channels. MartinLogan subwoofers

English

ELECTROSTATIC ADVANTAGES

How can sound be reproduced by something that you are

able to see through? Electrostatic energy makes this possible.

Where the world of traditional loudspeaker technology deals

with cones, domes, diaphragms and ribbons that are moved

with magnetism, the world of electrostatic loudspeakers deals

with charged electrons attracting and repelling each other.

To fully understand the electrostatic concept, some back-

ground information will be helpful. Remember when you

learned in a science or physics class that like charges repel

each other and opposite charges attract each other? Well,

this principle is the foundation of the electrostatic concept.

An electrostatic transducer consists of three pieces: stators,

the diaphragm and spacers. The diaphragm is what actually

moves to excite the air and create music. The stator’s job is

to remain stationary, hence the word stator, and to provide a

reference point for the moving diaphragm. The spacers pro-

vide the diaphragm with a fixed distance in which to move

between the stators.

As your amplifier sends music signals to an electrostatic speaker,

these signals are changed into two high-voltage signals that are

equal in strength but opposite in polarity. These high voltage

signals are then applied to the stators. The resulting electrostatic

field, created by the opposing high voltage on the stators, works

simultaneously with and against the diaphragm, consequently

moving it back and forth, producing music. This technique is

known as push-pull operation and is a major contributor to the

sonic purity of the electrostatic concept due to its exceptional

linearity and low distortion.

Since the diaphragm of an electrostatic speaker is uniformly

driven over its entire area, it can be extremely light and flexible.

This allows it to be very responsive to transients, thus perfectly

tracing the music signal. As a result, great delicacy, nuance and

clarity is possible. When you look at the problems of traditional

electromagnetic drivers, you can easily see why this is so ben-

eficial. The cones and domes which are used in traditional

electromagnetic drivers cannot be driven uniformly because of

their design. Cones are driven only at the apex. Domes are driv-

en at their perimeter. As a result, the rest of the cone or dome

is just “along for the ride”. The very concept of these

drivers requires that the cone or dome be perfectly rigid,

damped and massless. Unfortunately, these conditions are not

available in our world today.

To make these cones and domes move, all electromagnetic

drivers must use voice coils wound on formers, spider assem-

blies, and surrounds to keep the cone or dome in position.

These pieces, when combined with the high mass of the cone

or dome materials used, make it an extremely complex unit

with many weaknesses and potential for failure. These faults

contribute to the high distortion products found in these driv-

ers and is a tremendous disadvantage when you are trying to

change motion as quickly and as accurately as a loudspeaker

must (40,000 times per second!).

MARTINLOGAN EXCLUSIVES

XStat Transducer

XStat transducers incorporate a myriad of technology and

design innovations including CLS, MicroPerf, Generation 2

Diaphragms, ClearSpars™, and Vacuum Bonding.

CLS (Curvilinear Line Source)

Since the beginning of audio, achieving smooth dispersion has

been a problem for all designers. Large panel transducers pres-

ent unique challenge because the larger the panel, the more

directional the dispersion pattern becomes.

Wide range electrostats have long been one of the most

problematic transducers because they attain their full range

capabilities via a large surface area. It looked as if they were in

direct conflict to smooth dispersion and almost every attempt

to correct this resulted in either poor dispersion or a serious

compromise in sound quality.

After extensive research, MartinLogan engineers discovered

an elegantly simple solution to achieve a smooth pattern of

dispersion without degrading sound quality. By curving the

horizontal plane of the electrostatic transducer, a controlled

horizontal dispersion pattern could be achieved, yet the puri-

ty of the almost massless electrostatic diaphragm remained

uncompromised. After creating this technology, MartinLogan

developed the production capability to bring it out of the labo-

ratory and into the market place. You will find this proprietary

MartinLogan technology used in all of our electrostatic prod-

ucts. It is one of the many reasons behind our reputation for

high quality sound with practical usability. This is also why you

see the unique “see through” cylindrical shape of MartinLogan

products.

Generation 2 Diaphragm

The electrostatic transducer’s diaphragm employs an extreme-

ly sophisticated conductive coating applied to the polymer

surface at an atomic level using a plasma bonding process. A

proprietary compound is driven into the surface of the poly-

mer film in an oxygen free argon chamber. This process allows

extremely uniform surface resistivity characteristics, an optical-

ly transparent surface, and a nearly massless diaphragm. This

uniform surface resistivity controls the electrostatic charge on

the diaphragm surface and regulates its migration. As a result,

no discharging or “arcing” can occur.

MicroPerf Stator

Sleek. Compact. MicroPerf stator technology, featured in

all XStat transducers, reveals more open playable area in

each panel, offering increased performance from even more

compact stat panels. It is significant to note that the XStat trans-

ducer supports the bandwidth and dynamics associated with

traditional electrostatic panels nearly twice its size.

Vacuum Bonding

To achieve the power, precision, and strength of the XStat

transducer, two insulated high-purity carbon steel stators along

with a proprietary plasma bonded diaphragm and ClearSpar

spacers are fused into a curved geometry with an aerospace

adhesive whose strength exceeds that of welding. Our propri-

etary Vacuum Bonding process guarantees uniform diaphragm

tensioning and extremely precise construction tolerances,

resulting in unequivocal precision, linearity and efficiency.

Ultra-Rigid AirFrame Technology

XStat panels are joined to their speaker cabinets using

MartinLogan’s AirFrame technology, manufactured from

aerospace-grade extruded aluminum alloy. This makes the

panels extremely rigid without obstructing playable surface

area or interfering with the panel’s dipole sound radiation pat-

tern, while also providing electrical and acoustical isolation,

minimizing intermodulation distortion caused by vibration and

resonance.

Folded Motion™ XT Tweeter

The Folded Motion Tweeter works by moving air (which

creates sound) perpendicular to the folded ridges of the dia-

phragm, similar to how an accordion works. This extremely

English

low mass diaphragm “squeezes” air and requires almost 90%

less excursion than the typical 1” dome tweeter, which dras-

tically minimizes distortion while providing a lightning fast

response time. The increased surface area also provides a

wide, yet controlled sound dispersion to create a realistic and

carefully etched sound stage.

PoweredForce Bass Technology

Through integrated engineering of advanced amplification

and transducer designs, PoweredForce bass technology results

in immense bass dynamics and precision beyond the reach of

traditional systems. Low-frequency equalization capabilities,

integrated into PoweredForce technology, allow precision cali-

bration for optimal room integration.

Anthem Room Correction (ARC) Technology

The Anthem Room Correction (ARC) features a calibrated

microphone that measures the woofer’s output within your

unique listening space. It compares this to scientifically opti-

mal response curves. The advanced DSP algorithms of ARC

Technology then adjust your speaker’s output to accom-

modate the landscape of your room, virtually eliminating

performance-robbing anomalies such as doors, windows, and

other hard surfaces.

In the late 1800’s, any loudspeaker was considered exotic.

Today, we take the wonders of sound reproduction for granted.

It was 1880 before Thomas Edison had invented the

first phonograph. This was a horn-loaded diaphragm

that was excited by a playback stylus. In 1898, Sir Oliver

Lodge invented a cone loudspeaker, which he referred to

as a “bellowing telephone”, that was very similar to the con-

ventional cone loudspeaker drivers that we know today.

However, Lodge had no intention

for his device to reproduce music

because in 1898 there was no way

to amplify an electrical signal! As

a result, his speaker had nothing

to offer over the acoustical gramo-

phones of the period. It was not

until 1906 that Dr. Lee DeForrest

invented the triode vacuum tube.

Before this, an electrical signal could not be amplified. The

loudspeaker, as we know it today, should have ensued then,

but it did not. Amazingly, it was almost twenty years before

this would occur.

In 1921, the electrically cut phonograph record became

a reality. This method of recording was far superior to the

mechanically cut record and possessed almost 30 dB of

dynamic range. The acoustical gramophone couldn’t begin to

reproduce all of the information on this new disc. As a result,

further developments in loudspeakers were needed to cope

with this amazing new recording medium.

By 1923, the decision was made to develop a complete musi-

cal playback system consisting of an electronic phonograph

and a loudspeaker to take advantage of the new recording

medium. The project to two young engineers, C. W. Rice and

E. W. Kellogg.

Rice and Kellogg had a well equipped laboratory at their dispos-

al. This lab possessed a vacuum tube amplifier with an unheard

of 200 watts, a large selection of the new electrically cut pho-

nograph records and a variety of loudspeaker prototypes that

had been collecting over the past decade. Among these were

Lodge’s cone, a speaker that used compressed air, a corona dis-

charge (plasma) speaker, and an electrostatic speaker.

After a short time, Rice and Kellogg had narrowed the field of

“contestants” down to the cone and the electrostat. The out-

come would dictate the way that future generations would

refer to loudspeakers as being either “conventional” or “exotic”.

Their electrostat was something to behold. This enormous

bipolar speaker was as big as a door. The diaphragm, which

was beginning to rot, was made of a pig intestine that was cov-

ered with fine gold leaf to conduct the audio signal.

When Rice and Kellogg began playing

the new electrically cut records through

the electrostat, they were stunned and

impressed. The electrostat performed

splendidly. They had never heard instru-

mental timbres reproduced with such

realism. This system sounded like real

music rather than the honking, squawk-

ing rendition of the acoustic gramophone. Immediately, they

knew they were on to something big. The acoustic gramo-

phone was destined to become obsolete.

Due to Rice and Kellogg’s enthusiasm, they devoted a con-

siderable amount of time researching the electrostatic design.

However, they soon encountered the same difficulties that

even present designers face; planar speakers require a very

large surface area to reproduce the lower frequencies of the

audio spectrum. Because the management considered large

speakers unacceptable, Rice and Kellogg’s work on electro-

statics would never be put to use for a commercial product.

Reluctantly, they advised management to go with the cone.

For the next 30 years, the electrostatic design lay dormant.

During the Great Depression of the 1930’s, consumer audio

almost died. The new electrically amplified loudspeaker

never gained acceptance, as most people continued to use

their old Victrola-style acoustic gramophones. Prior to the

end of World War II, consumer audio saw little, if any, prog-

ress. However, during the late 1940’s, audio experienced

a great rebirth. Suddenly there was tremendous interest in

audio products, and with that, a great demand for improved

audio components. No sooner had the cone become estab-

lished than it was challenged by products developed during

this new rebirth.

ELECTROSTATIC LOUDSPEAKER HISTORY

Rice and Kellogg had

narrowed the field of

“contestants down” to the

cone and the electrostat.

English

In 1947, Arthur Janszen, a young Naval engineer, took part in

a research project for the Navy. The Navy was interested in

developing a better instrument for testing microphone arrays.

The test instrument needed an extremely accurate speaker,

but Janszen found that the cone speakers of the period were

too nonlinear in phase and amplitude response to meet his

criteria. Janszen believed that electrostats were inherently

more linear than cones, so he built a model using a thin plastic

diaphragm treated with a conductive coating. This model con-

firmed Janszen’s beliefs, for it exhibited remarkable phase and

amplitude linearity.

Janszen was so excited with the results that he continued

research on the electrostatic speaker on his own time. He

soon thought of insulating the stators to prevent the destruc-

tive effects of arcing. By 1952, he had an electrostatic tweeter

element ready for commercial production. This new tweeter

soon created a sensation among American audio hobbyists.

Since Janszen’s tweeter element was limit-

ed to high frequency reproduction, it often

found itself used in conjunction with woof-

ers—most notably, those from Acoustic

Research. These systems were highly

regarded by all audio enthusiasts.

As good as these systems were, they would

soon be surpassed by another electrostatic

speaker.

In 1955, Peter Walker published three articles regarding

electrostatic loudspeaker design in Wireless World, a British

magazine. In these articles, Walker demonstrated the benefits

of the electrostatic loudspeaker. He explained that electrostat-

ics permit the use of diaphragms that are low in mass, large

in area and uniformly driven over their surfaces by electro-

static forces. Due to these characteristics, electrostats have the

inherent ability to produce a wide bandwidth, flat frequency

response with distortion products being no greater than the

electronics driving them.

By 1956, Walker backed up his articles by introducing a con-

sumer product, the now famous Quad ESL. This speaker

immediately set a standard of performance for the audio

industry due to its incredible accuracy. However, in actual

use, the Quad had a few problems. It could not be played very

loud, it had poor bass performance, it presented a difficult

load that some amplifiers did not like, its dispersion was very

directional and its power handling was limited to around 70

watts. As a result, many people continued to use box speakers

with cones.

In the early 1960’s Arthur Janszen joined forces with the KLH

loudspeaker company, and together they introduced the KLH

9. Due to the large size of the KLH 9, it did not have as many

sonic limitations as the Quad. The KLH 9 could play marked-

ly louder and lower in frequency than the Quad ESL. Thus a

rivalry was born.

Janszen continued to develop electrostatic designs. He

was instrumental in the design of the Koss Model One, the

Acoustech and the Dennesen speakers. Roger West, the chief

designer of the Janszen Corporation, became the president

of Sound Lab. When Janszen Corporation was sold, the RTR

loudspeaker company bought half of the production tooling.

This tooling was used to make the electrostatic panels for the

Servostatic, a hybrid electrostatic system that was Infinity’s

first speaker product. Other com-

panies soon followed; each with

their own unique applications of

the technology. These include

Acoustat, Audiostatic, Beverage,

Dayton Wright, Sound Lab and

Stax, to name a few.

Electrostatic speakers have pro-

gressed and prospered because they actually do what Peter

Walker claimed they would. The limitations and problems

experienced in the past were not inherent to the electro-

static concept. They were related to the applications of these

concepts.

Today, these limitations have been resolved. Advancements

in materials due to the U.S. space program give designers the

ability to harness the superiority of the electrostatic principle.

Today’s electrostats use advanced insulation techniques or

provide protection circuitry. The poor dispersion properties of

early models have been addressed by using delay lines, acous-

tical lenses, multiple panel arrays or, as in our own products,

by curving the diaphragm. Power handling and sensitivity have

also been increased.

These developments allow the consumer the opportunity to

own the highest performance loudspeaker products ever built.

It’s too bad Rice and Kellogg were never able to see just how

far the technology would be taken.

These developments allow the

consumer to own the highest

performance loudspeaker

products ever built.

How do I clean my speakers?

Use a dust free cloth or a soft brush to remove the dust

from your speakers. For the wood surfaces it is accept-

able to slightly dampen the cloth. Do not spray any kind

of cleaning agent on or in close proximity to the electro-

static element. Avoid the use of ammonia based products

or silicone oil on the wood parts.

What is the advantage of ESL?

Since the diaphragm is uniformly driven over its entire

surface—unlike a tweeter that is only driven at its edges—

it is the only technology that can be made large enough

to play bass, yet is still light enough for high frequencies.

This unique property allows for the elimination of high fre-

quency crossover points and their associated distortions.

What size amplifier should I use?

We recommend amplifier sizes in the specifications of

each speaker. Our hybrid designs will perform well with

either a tube or transistorized amplifier, and will reveal

the sonic character of either type. However, it is impor-

tant that the amplifier be stable operating into varying

impedance loads: an ideally stable amplifier will typically

be able to deliver nearly twice its rated wattage into 4

Ohms and should again increase into 2 Ohms.

Is there likely to be any interaction between my speakers

and the television in my Audio/Video system?

Actually, there is less interaction between a television and

an electrostatic speaker than between a television and a

conventional system. However, we do recommend that

you keep your speakers at least one foot away from the

television because of the dynamic woofer they employ.

Will my electric bill go ‘sky high’ by leaving my speakers

plugged in all the time?

No. There is circuitry to turn off the static charge when

not in use; however, actual consumption will remain close

to the same. The primary purpose of the sensing circuitry

is to prevent dust collection on the electrostatic element.

Could you suggest a list of suitable electronics, cables, and

power cords that would be ideal for MartinLogan speakers?

The area of electronics, cable, and power cord choice

is probably the most common type of question that we

receive. It is also the most subjective. We have repeatedly

found that brands that work well in one setup will drive

someone else nuts in another. We use many brands with

great success. Again, we have no favorites; we use electron-

ics and cables quite interchangeably. We would suggest

listening to a number of brands—and above all else— trust

your ears. Dealers are always the best source for information

when purchasing additional audio equipment.

If the diaphragm is punctured with a pencil or similar

item, how extensive would the damage to the speaker be?

Our research department has literally punctured hun-

dreds of holes in a diaphragm, neither affecting the

quality of the sound nor causing the diaphragm to rip.

However, you will be able to see the actual puncture and

it can be a physical nuisance. If this is the case, replacing

the electrostatic transducer will be the only solution.

Will exposure to sunlight affect the life or performance of

my speakers?

We recommend that you not place any loudspeaker in

direct sunlight. The ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun

can cause deterioration of grill cloth, speaker cones, etc.

Small exposures to UV will not cause a problem. In gener-

al, the filtering of UV rays through glass will greatly reduce

the negative effects on the electrostatic membrane itself.

A problem has recently developed with my MartinLogan

speakers. The right speaker seems to be hissing even

when the amplifier and such are not connected. I was

wondering if this sounds like any problem you have

encountered previously and have a simple solution for or

might it be something which will need to be looked into

more carefully.

Your speakers are dusty. See the vacuuming FAQ. The

electrostatic charge on the element has attracted air-

borne dust or pollen. Since 1993, all of our speakers have

been built with a charging circuit board that only charg-

es the electrostatic element when music plays. At other

times they are not charged and cannot collect dust.

Will excessive smoke or dust cause any problems with my

electrostatic speakers?

Exposure to excessive contaminants such as smoke

or dust may potentially affect the performance of the

electrostatic membrane, and may cause discoloration

of the diaphragm membrane. When not in use for

extended periods, you should unplug the speakers and

cover them with the plastic bags or cloth covers in which

the speakers were originally packed. It is a good idea to

vacuum the electrostatic portion of each speaker three or

four times a year. See the vacuuming FAQ.

Could my children, pets, or myself be shocked by the

high-voltage present in the electrostatic panel?

No. High voltage with low current is not dangerous. As a

matter of fact, the voltage in our speakers is 10 times less

than the static electricity that builds up on the surface of

your television screen.

How do MartinLogan speakers hold up over a long term in

the humidity of tropical climates?

We should tell you that MartinLogan indeed has a very

substantial number of customers in tropical regions of

the world. Our speakers have been serving them nicely

for many years. This concern may have come from our

earlier design of speakers, which were charged continu-

ously. Since 1993, all of our speakers have been designed

so that they only charge the panel while music is being

played. This improvement has made a tremendous differ-

ence in the consistent performance of our product. There

may be a little more maintenance involved in humid

regions when not in an air conditioned environment.

Simply enough, the concern is to keep the electrostatic

panels dust free. Humidity will combine with any dust on

the panel to make it slightly conductive. This will result

in a slight pathway for the charge to leave the membrane

of the speaker. The solution is simple. They only require

occasional vacuuming with a strong vacuum hose.

How do I vacuum my MartinLogan speakers?

Vacuuming will be most effective if the speakers have

been unplugged for six hours to twelve hours (or over-

night). You need not worry about the vacuum pressure

damaging the "delicate" membrane. It is extraordinarily

durable. Dirt and dust may be vacuumed off (don’t use a

brush attachment) or you may blow them off with com-

pressed air. When vacuuming or blowing off your panels

do so to both sides, but focus the majority of your atten-

tion on the front of the panels.

Should I unplug my speakers during a thunderstorm?

Yes, or before. It’s a good idea to disconnect all of your

audio/video components during stormy weather.

GENERAL INFORMATION

English

AC. Abbreviation for alternating current.

Active crossover. Uses active devices (transistors, IC’s, tubes)

and some form of power supply to operate.

Amplitude. The extreme range of a signal. Usually measured

from the average to the extreme.

Arc. The visible sparks generated by an electrical discharge.

Bass. The lowest frequencies of sound.

Bi-Amplification. Uses an electronic crossover, or line-level

passive crossover, and separate power amplifiers for the high

technologies. Meant here as the combination of a dynamic

woofer with an electrostatic transducer.

Hz (Hertz). Unit of frequency equivalent to the number of

cycles per second.

Imaging. To make a representation or imitation of the original

sonic event.

Impedance. The total opposition offered by an electric circuit

to the flow of an alternating current of a single frequency. It

is a combination of resistance and reactance and is measured

in ohms. Remember that a speaker’s impedance changes with

frequency, it is not a constant value.

Inductance. The property of an electrical circuit by which

a varying current in it produces a varying magnetic field that

introduces voltages in the same circuit or in a nearby circuit. It

is measured in henrys.

GLOSSARY OF AUDIO TERMS

English

Inductor. A device designed primarily to introduce induc-

tance into an electrical circuit. Sometimes called a choke or

coil.

Linearity. The extent to which any signal handling process is

accomplished without amplitude distortion.

Midrange. The middle frequencies where the ear is the most

sensitive.

Passive crossover. Uses no active components (transistors,

IC’s, tubes) and needs no power supply (AC, DC, battery) to

operate. The crossover in a typical loudspeaker is of the pas-

sive variety. Passive crossovers consist of capacitors, inductors

and resistors.

Phase. The amount by which one sine wave leads or lags

a second wave of the same frequency. The difference is

described by the term phase angle. Sine waves in phase rein-

force each other; those out of phase cancel.

Pink noise. A random noise used in measurements, as it has

the same amount of energy in each octave.

Polarity. The condition of being positive or negative with

respect to some reference point or object.

RMS. Abbreviation for root mean square. The effective value

of a given waveform is its RMS value. Acoustic power is pro-

portional to the square of the RMS sound pressure.

Resistance. That property of a conductor by which it opposes

the flow of electric current, resulting in the generation of heat

in the conducting material, usually expressed in ohms.

Resistor. A device used in a circuit to provide resistance.

Resonance. The effect produced when the natural vibration fre-

quency of a body is greatly amplified by reinforcing vibrations at

the same or nearly the same frequency from another body.

Sensitivity. The volume of sound delivered for a given electri-

cal input.

Stator. The fixed part forming the reference for the moving

diaphragm in a planar speaker.

THD. The abbreviation for total harmonic distortion. (See

Distortion)

TIM. The abbreviation for transient intermodulation distortion.

Transducer. Any of various devices that transmit energy from

one system to another, sometimes one that converts the ener-

gy in form. Loudspeaker transducers convert electrical energy

into mechanical motion.

Transient. Applies to that which lasts or stays but a short time.

A change from one steady-state condition to another.

Tweeter. A small drive unit designed to reproduce only

high frequencies.

Wavelength. The distance measured in the direction of pro-

gression of a wave, from any given point characterized by the

same phase.

White noise. A random noise used in measurements, as it has

the same amount of energy at each frequency.

Woofer. A drive unit operating in the bass frequencies only.

Drive units in two-way systems are not true woofers but are

more accurately described as being mid/bass drivers.
