Setting Subwoofer Controls (continued)

1.Turn the Low Pass Filter (Hz) Control to the middle of the “Normal” range.

2.Slowly rotate the Level Control until you match the subwoofer output level with the level of your speakers. Bass should be clearly audible but not intrusive.

3.If the sound is too “thin” set the Low Pass Filter Control higher than the “Normal” range; if the sound becomes “boomy” set the Low Pass Filter Control lower than the normal range.

4.If the bass sounds weak or “dislocated” you may have a phase alignment problem. Your MLT-2 subwoofer has a Phase Switch which is normally set to the 0° position. Switch it to the 180° position—this will switch the phase of the subwoofer by 180° relative to your speakers. Listen to determine if you hear more bass. If you don’t hear more bass, return the Phase Switch to its original position and then experiment with subwoofer placement to find an area of the room where there is less bass cancellation.

MLT-2 specifications

The MartinLogan MLT-2 is a compact, high-performance home theater speaker system that blends cutting-edge technology with elegant design. Designed for audiophiles and casual listeners alike, the MLT-2 stands out with its electrostatic design, which is a hallmark of MartinLogan's commitment to delivering exceptional sound quality.

One of the standout features of the MLT-2 is its use of an electrostatic panel. This technology allows for incredibly detailed sound reproduction, producing a broad frequency response with minimal distortion. The panel is engineered to create a large soundstage, giving users an immersive listening experience that fills the room. In addition to the electrostatic panel, the MLT-2 includes a high-performance 5.25-inch woofer that effectively extends the low-frequency response, ensuring that the system can handle everything from soaring high notes to booming bass.

The MLT-2 speaker system comes equipped with a range of advanced technologies that enhance its performance. One such feature is the advanced crossover network, which ensures seamless integration between the electrostatic panel and the woofer. This results in a coherent sound profile that accurately reproduces the audio in movies, music, and other media. The construction of the cabinet is also critical; the MLT-2 boasts a rigid, well-braced enclosure that minimizes cabinet resonance and maximizes sound clarity.

Another key characteristic of the MLT-2 is its elegant design. Its slim and modern profile allows it to blend seamlessly with various décor styles, making it a perfect choice for any home theater setup. The speaker is available in a variety of finishes, including a high-gloss black and a real-wood veneer, catering to individual tastes and preferences.

With its versatile capabilities, the MartinLogan MLT-2 is an ideal choice for both small and large home theater systems. The efficient design enables easy placement in various environments while still maintaining exceptional audio quality. Whether you’re watching your favorite movie or enjoying music, the MLT-2 ensures that every sound is rendered with remarkable clarity and precision.
