MartinLogan MartinLogan Introduces Vantage Floorstanding Loudspeakers
by MartinLogan PR
November 1, 2005



MartinLogan
MicroPerf stator technology, featured in Vantage’s XStat™ transducer, reveals more open playable area in each panel. The Vantage™ loudspeaker boasts an XStat™ electrostatic transducer with a playable area equal to that of a traditional electrostatic transducer nearly twice its size.

Further enhancing efficiency and dynamics as well as MartinLogan’s trademark transparency, rigid ClearSpars™ spacers (originally engineered for the cost-no-object Statement™ e2) allow XStat™ transducers to maintain an extremely uniform tension of the diaphragm during critical panel construction processes, permitting critical stator and diaphragm spacing within an exact tolerance.

Ultimate Crossover—Ultimate Clarity

Featuring an advanced proprietary Vojtko™ crossover topology derived from the Statement™ e2 loudspeaker, MartinLogan electronic specialists hand-build each Vantage crossover utilizing only the finest of components and construction techniques to assure the cleanest, most precise signal path possible. The resulting precision crossover flawlessly preserves microscopic subtleties while effortlessly handling the broadest range of dynamics contained within even the most demanding sonic source.

Myriad Finish Options
Vantage features a variety of real wood veneers with multiple layers of hand-rubbed lacquer.

Toolless Binding Posts Simplify Connections
The Vantage is supplied with bi-wire, high-resolution, proprietary toolless binding posts for effortless cable attachment and management.

Energy Transfer Coupler (ETC) Spikes Maximize Low Frequency Performance
To further enhance Vantage’s performance, sturdy ETC™ spikes are provided for tighter, better defined bass, cleaner micro dynamic resolution, and improved imaging and focus.
