Reference Quality Electrostatic Technology Is Now Available In The Smallest, Most Versatile Martin-Logan Speaker System

The world of home entertainment is expanding and changing in fundamental new ways. The future points to a single environment where music, movies, television, the web and video games are all enjoyed through a central system of electronics. In addressing the new ways of home entertainment Martin-Logan has introduced a versatile new electrostatic speaker system, the Scenarioô. ""Our goal with the Scenario,"" says Martin-Loganís Gayle Sanders, ""was to design a speaker system capable of exceeding the demands presented by many media and be compact enough to fit rooms of varying sizes and acoustics. Martin-Logan created the Scenario from the ground up to outperform anything in its class. We squeezed our exclusive proprietary electrostatic technology into a trim cabinet with an exceptionally small footprint, which allows for the widest range of applications. The Scenario can meet the diverse challenges of the ever-expanding home entertainment environment."" The Scenario takes full advantage of Martin-Loganís 15 years of leadership in the successful development and production of the worldís most accurate transducer, the CLSô electrostatic panel. Mating this unique panel to a dynamic driver assembly results in a hybrid design with truly linear performance throughout the range of human hearing. High resolution of inner detail is combined with low distortion and surprising dynamic range. With these capabilities, the Scenario is perfect for classic stereo music playback or as a front or rear no-compromise home cinema system.
