Our goal, when we began our first subwoofer project, was to deliver the good stuff - deep, tight, powerful bass - and none of the bad. Turn on the sub and maybe you got the deeper, stronger bass you were looking for but that wonderful electrostatic snap and midrange clarity were, if not gone, now smeared and disconnected. For many years subwoofers and electrostats did not blend very well. Although that’s not necessarily true (and we have the subwoofers to prove it), the idea is grounded in experience.

This has been MartinLogan’s great contribution-our quest for audio perfection.īALANCEDFORCE® SERIES ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE SUBWOOFERSĬhances are you’ve read or heard at some time that adding a subwoofer to a system built around electrostatic speakers is nearly impossible. While in theory all of this might sound relatively simple, in truth, there is an art and science to making this work practically, effortlessly, and reliably.
An amplifier’s signal, when applied to the stators, creates a strong electrostatic field that moves the diaphragm back and forth, exciting the air and transmitting sound. The diaphragm is suspended between the stators.
MartinLogan electrostatic panels have two basic elements: a thin, conductively coated diaphragm with a large surface area and two charged, perforated metal stators. Why create electrostatic speakers when conventional speakers are so much easier to design and build? Clearly, this is a question that could only be asked by someone who has never been held spellbound listening to an electrostat.Įlectrostatic speakers are uniquely capable of an extraordinary and compellingly realistic performance with unmatched clarity and three-dimensional sonic imaging (often referred to as ‘sound staging’ by audiophiles).
