Subwoofers

POWERFUL, HIGH-EXCURSION, LOW-TURBULENCE, INVERTED SURROUND WOOFERS

The latest generation of MartinLogan Dynamo subwoofers feature advanced-design woofers with inverted surrounds and powerful magnet, motor, and suspension designs. In front-fire mode the unique inverted surround design maximizes excursion clearance behind the grill cover. When positioned in a down-firing configuration, the inverted surround significantly reduces airflow related turbulence for an articulate and detailed low-frequency experience. These advanced-technology woofers pair a high-power magnet structure (significantly more robust than previous generations) with low-mass diaphragms to provide massive excursions while perfectly preserving the tiniest bass detail. The exceptional damping properties of the cone ensure a smooth, non-resonant response necessary for truly seamless blending with high-performance loudspeakers. Every element of Dynamo subwoofers has been meticulously designed to deliver a staggering low-frequency performance – all without a hint of distortion.

Chances are you've read or heard at some time that adding a subwoofer to a system built around electrostatic speakers is nearly impossible. Although that's not necessarily true (and we have the subwoofers to prove it), the idea is grounded in experience. For many years subwoofers and electrostats did not blend very well. Turn on the sub and maybe you got the deeper, stronger bass you were looking for but that wonderful electrostatic snap and midrange clarity were, if not gone, now smeared and disconnected.

The S.10 is the flagship of the S Series. It is built for those who require higher power and deeper reach from a subwoofer, but with even greater definition and musicality than our smaller models.

Finding a subwoofer that is both ultra compact and high quality can be a challenge - that’s exactly where the Sumiko S.0 comes in. Don’t be fooled by the size. The S.0 offers true foundation into low-40 Hz range, with more control and gravity than most loudspeakers rated to reach the same limit. The S.0 is poised to provide real texture and substance to your listening experience. 

The Sumiko S.5 is the evolution of its smaller sibling, the S.0. While still compact, the S.5 gains some overall size to incorporate a larger driver, and provide more substantial bass reinforcement. This mid-sized woofer will be a welcome addition to any two-channel or multichannel system, providing a balance between accuracy and output. 

The S.9 will transform your system – any expectations you may have of it – into an engaging, dynamic experience, alive with movement and emotion. The S.9 will produce genuine, room-filling bass with ease, and simultaneously provide previously unheard details and textures guaranteed to thrill.

The second generation WATCH Dog subwoofer has undergone the most radical redesign of any of the WATCH system components. Specifically, it has been transformed from an active subwoofer (with a built-in amplifier), to a passive, unamplified unit. Two considerations drove the design change: Quality and Flexibility.
