YOUR NEW SPEAKERS

MLT-2 5.1 speakers are magnetically shielded for use near a CRT television or video screen. Keyhole slots on the rear allow them to be mounted on a wall (hardware not included).

Your speakers can also be placed on a bookshelf or desk.

POWER REQUIREMENTS

The ‘Watts’ (W) rating indicated on the rear panel is the maximum AC power your subwoofer will draw when producing its maximum power output. However, the actual wattage draw will vary with the bass content of the program material.

How To Avoid SPEAKER DAMAGE

Use an appropriate amplifier. At high volumes, a very powerful amplifier can overdrive your speakers and damage them. On the other hand, if your amplifier isn’t powerful enough, it can produce clipping distortion that can easily damage high-frequency drivers. (See your Dealer.)

Don’t be fooled by your amplifier’s volume control. It adjusts listening level—it does not indicate power output. If your speakers begin to sound harsh or grating, or if you hear the bass breaking up, turn the volume down immediately or you will damage your speakers!

This type of damage constitutes abuse and is not covered by warranty!

Tone controls and equalizers can demand even more power from an amplifier, lowering the point at which it produces clipping distortion. Use them sparingly, if at all, and do not use them when listening at loud levels.

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.

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.
