Martin Logan SL3 Floorstanding Speakers - Cherry

Martin Logan SL3 Floorstanding Speakers - Cherry

Originally launched in 1995 Martin Logan’s SL3 loudspeakers were described as an affordable reference standard loudspeaker and they can still hold their head high today. They are pretty large, need a largish room and high quality ancillaries but the effort will be well worth it. They are in good condition but show obvious signs of wear in keeping with their age including paint spatter to the rear of one unit, please see photographs. Sonically the sound nice and balanced (panels are not dull) and electronically everything is as it should be. They will be professionally packaged and shipped on a pallet only or personal collection would be welcome (sorry – no couriers). Good working order. No international shipping sorry.
Martin Logan Say….
The MartinLogan SL3 represents the culmination of an intensive, dedicated group research program directed toward establishing a world class reference monitor utilizing leading-edge technology, without compromising durability, reliability, craftsmanship or aesthetic design.
The SL3 raises and refines the performance level of the original MartinLogan Sequel II while reducing the space it consumes in your home. Bass response now has better extension and improved definition. High frequency response also has better extension and is more natural in character. The integration of the two is much smoother and seamless. Power handling and system efficiency have been enhanced as well.
The materials in our new SL3 speakers are of the highest quality and all trim pieces are constructed from selected hardwoods. They are then grain and colour matched and finally hand finished. The cabinetry is constructed from the highest quality composite material for acoustical integrity and is finished with our attractive custom matte finish.
Through rigorous testing, the curvilinear electrostatic panel has proven itself to be one of the most durable and reliable transducers available today. Fabricated from a custom tool punched high-grade steel, the patented panel is then coated with a special polymer that is applied via a proprietary electrostatic deposition process. This panel assembly houses a membrane just 0.0005 of an inch thick. Ruggedly constructed and insulated, as much as 200 watts of continuous power has driven the SL3s energized diaphragm into massive excursions with no deleterious effects.
Matchless precision and practicality are fused seamlessly in the SL3. A system you will find remarkably efficient, accurate, and affordable.
The SL3 hybrid speaker system consists of a broad-range single element electrostatic transducer integrated with a quick response woofer. This approach takes advantage of the benefits that both technologies have to offer. Dispersion is a controlled 30 degrees. This was achieved by curving the electrostatic transducer element itself, an elegantly simple solution.
