MartinLogan ElectroMotion ESL Hybrid Electrostatic Speaker Review

 

Review of the MartinLogan ElectroMotion ESL Hybrid Electrostatic speaker

MartinLogan ElectroMotion ESL stereo loudspeakers

 

Beautiful tonal balance. Unique stereo sound. Good volume levels.

A Natural and Spacious Experience!

 

I came from a pair of Polk Towers and I am blown away. The amount of detail is unbelievable. In the store I was leaning towards a pair of B&W's and a Marantz PM8005 amp in another room. The associate was kind enough to hook up the ML's next to the...

Beautiful sound quality for classical music

 

We use two of these speakers in a 5.0 configuration with a center speaker and two bookshelf speakers at the back; no sub-woofer. They are quite unobtrusive compared with the much larger main speakers I previously used but the sound quality is just as...
