Top model of Martin Logan 's new proposal for bass and extreme bass reproduction in all types of musical and audiovisual reproduction systems, the BalancedForce 212 is a robust, elegant and powerful subwoofer that combines the most advanced electroacoustic technology of the legendary firm American with a sophisticated amplification system with DSP control and, if the user wishes, a versatile room correction scheme (PBK) available optionally. The key to the BalancedForce concept is the use of two very low distortion woofers and high power magnetic motor mounted in a special configuration: exactly opposite each other and operating in phase. The speaker cones used – each 305 mm in diameter – are a fundamental element of the scheme developed by Martin Logan since they ensure the absence of coloration and the displacement without deformations required to reproduce the lower octaves of the spectrum with maximum depth and precision. .
Likewise, a hermetic enclosure is used with non-parallel side panels that facilitate its tonal neutrality, while the amplification electronics are a state-of-the-art design that operates on an ultra-efficient version of the Class D operating principle. This amplifier should be highlighted. That the combined use of low-noise, high-power transformers, a switching power supply based on high-quality MOSFET transistors, noise cancellation circuitry and precise control subsystems allows it to handle large amounts of current with almost no distortion. Finally, the BalancedForce 212 includes line (stereo, LFE) and high level (box connection terminals) jacks, as well as a 12 V trigger signal. A USB port makes it easy to connect a room correction system (optional) PBK and Martin Logan 's 25Hz trim control to tailor subwoofer response to the listening room. In short, a careful and seductive product created for the most demanding fans.
