The Expression ESL 13A is a refined speaker that brings Martin Logan 's hybrid speaker system concept up to date. An unmistakable aesthetic, which connects with that of the celebrated designs made up of electrostatic and electrodynamic transducers of the legendary American firm, constitutes the letter of presentation of a product whose interior houses substantial changes with respect to its predecessors.
The first of these changes is found in what is undoubtedly the fundamental component in any Martin Logan hybrid speaker: the electrostatic panel. Vacuum bonded into one of the brand's sleek, exclusive AirFrame Blade frames and equipped with the brand's MicroPerf stator technology, this advanced electrostatic panel is able to provide a soundstage of a breadth and transparency difficult to match by sound systems. conventional speakers.
To complete the set, the Expression ESL 13A incorporates a sophisticated self-powered subwoofer in its base. It is a design that combines a non-resonant construction enclosure with two PoweredForce Forward speakers exclusive to the brand, with a 254 mm diameter aluminum cone. The system is completed with two amplifiers – one for each transducer – in Class D of 300 watts continuous (600 watts peak), made with audiophile grade components. The character of a genuinely High End component of the Expression ESL 13A is completed with exquisite care in manufacturing and finishing, highlighting the presence of high purity copper connection terminals signed by WBT and adjustable metal decoupling tips.
