Line Level Input Signal Connection (figure 3):

Connect the left and right line level outputs of your pream- plifier to the left and right 'Line Level Input' connections of the Dynamo 300 using quality RCA interconnects. If your preamplifier only has one set of outputs you may need to obtain Y adapters from your dealer.

Speaker Level Input Signal Connection (figure 4):

Connect the left and right outputs of your amplifier to the subwoofer’s left and right 'Speaker Level Input' binding posts. Use quality speaker cable.

If your amplifier only has one set of outputs you may connect your amplifier to your speakers as normal and run an additional set of cables from your speakers to the subwoofer’s 'Speaker Level Input' binding posts.

It is also possible to connect the left and right outputs of your amp to the left and right 'Speaker Level Input' of the subwoofer and run additional cables from your subwoofer to the speakers.

Recommended Control Settings (see figure 2):

1Set the 'Low Pass Filter' knob to approximately 70% of your loudspeakers lowest frequency response.

3While playing music with bass content, turn the 'Level' control up until the music has deep extended bass, being careful to avoid levels that become overwhelming.

4Try the 'Phase' control in different settings until the best blending is obtained.

Multi-Channel/LFE Mode

This setup is recommended if your Dynamo 300 will be used in a dedicated home theater or multi-channel system. When a signal is connected to the subwoofer’s LFE input, and the crossover switch is set to 'Bypass (LFE In)' the internal low pass filter is not active. By following this setup, you will allow your processor to handle most of the bass management.

If you will be using your system for both 2-channel and multi-channel listening we recommend using this setup

and connection method. Some modern receivers and processors allow users to route left and right channel low-frequency information, in addition to discrete LFE infor- mation, through the LFE output.

300 specifications

The MartinLogan 300 is a high-performance electrostatic speaker that represents a remarkable fusion of innovative technology and sonic excellence. Designed for audiophiles and music enthusiasts alike, the 300 combines MartinLogan's signature electrostatic driver technology with advanced materials and engineering to create an immersive listening experience.

One of the standout features of the MartinLogan 300 is its electrostatic driver system. This technology utilizes a lightweight, electrically charged diaphragm suspended between two stators. When an audio signal is applied, the diaphragm moves rapidly, producing sound with astonishing clarity and precision. The result is a speaker that reproduces high frequencies with minimal distortion, allowing listeners to experience music as the artist intended.

In addition to its electrostatic technology, the MartinLogan 300 includes a sophisticated bass port design. This integration of a 10-inch, high excursion aluminum cone woofer works seamlessly with the electrostatic panel to deliver a full-range sound experience. The woofer boasts a powerful neodymium magnet structure, ensuring responsive and dynamic bass reproduction that complements the crystal-clear highs of the electrostatic driver.

The build quality of the MartinLogan 300 is equally impressive. The cabinet is constructed from high-density MDF, which minimizes resonance and cabinet coloration. The sleek design features an elegant wood veneer finish that adds a touch of sophistication to any listening space. Additionally, the removable grille can be attached or detached easily, giving users the option to showcase the stunning technology within while maintaining a streamlined appearance.

Another notable characteristic is the speaker's wide dispersion pattern. Thanks to its unique electrostatic design, the MartinLogan 300 creates a broad soundstage that immerses listeners in a lifelike sound experience. Whether placed in a small room or a large auditorium, these speakers can fill the space with engaging and detailed sound.

In summary, the MartinLogan 300 delivers outstanding performance through its advanced electrostatic technology, premium woofer, high-quality construction, and wide dispersion characteristics. This speaker is not just an audio device; it's a gateway to an unparalleled musical experience that brings every nuance of sound to life, making it a worthy investment for those serious about their audio systems.
