New MartinLogan Loudspeaker Uses Built In Amplifier to Reduce Wire Clutter

November 4, 2008—MartinLogan is proud to announce the new “Feature” loudspeaker, a fully powered, high-resolution, electrostatic loudspeaker designed for use either on- or off-wall in center, front, or surround channel applications.

Internally powered with a high-resolution 150 watt switching amplifier the Feature allows an unprecedented level of system connection flexibility. A standard RCA line-level input minimizes wire clutter by connecting directly to on-wall televisions (and other devices) without the need for external amplifiers.

Additionally, standard speaker-level connections allow the fully powered Feature to integrate with audio systems where RCA connection is not possible. Consumers choosing to use the Feature with a traditional receiver will experience an enhanced sonic experience without the need to upgrade to a more expensive model.

A highly-sophisticated Vojtko crossover seamlessly blends the Feature’s state-of-the-art electrostatic transducer, neodymium soft-dome tweeter, dual low-distortion 5.25-inch woofers, and 150 watt amplifier to provide crisp, clear, MartinLogan sound across the entire frequency range.

For those seeking an ultimate performance, clutter-free home theater experience Feature perfectly matches MartinLogan’s fully powered Purity floor standing electrostatic loudspeaker and full line of low-distortion subwoofers.

“MartinLogan’s new fully powered loudspeakers really simplify home theater while still providing award-winning MartinLogan sound. They are a perfect match for the new generation of televisions and DVD players equipped with built-in surround sound decoding and volume control,” said Devin Zell, MartinLogan Assistant Marketing Manager.
