WARNING! Turn your amplifier off before making or breaking any signal connections!

These speakers are designed with easy-to-use push-style binding posts that accept bare wire or pins (fig. 2). Additionally, by removing the rubber inserts, they will accept banana plugs (fig. 3)

Assign the same color to the (+) and (–) terminals on both the speaker and the amplifier. Make certain that all connections are tight.

INSTALLING THE GRILL COVERS

To install this speaker’s magnetic grill covers simply move them into place (Fig. 4).

BREAK IN

Allow approximately 72 hours of break-in at 90 dB (moderate listening levels) before any critical listening.

PLACEMENT

Although your speakers are designed to deliver a superb sonic performance when placed close to a wall, you may notice improved imaging and detail if you are able to place the speakers (measured from the tweeter and woofers) 2–3 feet from the front wall and 2 or more feet from the side walls (Fig. 5).

10, 12 specifications

MartinLogan is renowned for its pioneering work in the audio industry, particularly in producing high-quality electrostatic loudspeakers. Among its acclaimed product lineup, the MartinLogan 12 and 22 models stand out for their exceptional performance and innovative technology.

The MartinLogan 12 is a premium electrostatic speaker that combines advanced engineering with aesthetic design. One of its standout features is the Speakers' electrostatic transducer, which ensures flawless sound reproduction across the entire frequency spectrum. The transducer is powered by a highly efficient Direct Drive technology that delivers clear and detailed audio, allowing listeners to experience music and movies as if they are in the recording studio or cinema. Additionally, the MartinLogan 12 includes a dynamic woofer that enhances low-frequency performance, providing a well-rounded audio profile.

The MartinLogan 22, on the other hand, is a more compact yet powerful option. It retains the electrostatic technology that MartinLogan is famous for while offering a slightly different design to suit smaller spaces. The 22 model features a refined hybrid design, combining a stunning electrostatic panel with a robust woofer that produces deep bass and rich mids. This makes it more versatile in various room sizes and configurations.

Both models benefit from MartinLogan’s advanced engineering, including PrecisionWave technology, which aims to improve sound dispersion and increase the perceived soundstage. This technology creates a more immersive listening experience, allowing sound to envelop the room rather than emanate from a specific point.

Furthermore, the build quality of MartinLogan's speakers is exemplary, featuring premium materials and craftsmanship. The cabinets are designed to minimize resonance, ensuring pure sound reproduction free from distortion.

In summary, the MartinLogan 12 and 22 loudspeakers reflect a commitment to excellence in audio engineering. With their advanced electrostatic technology, powerful woofers, and stunning aesthetics, these models are ideal for audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts alike, promising an unparalleled listening experience that showcases the true essence of music and film.
