About the reQuest

Evolved from the legendary Monolith III, the Martin Logan reQuest offers reference-level performance by unraveling complex micro detail with stunning dynamics and powerful bass effortlessly. It features a 48-inch CLS electrostatic transducer for high frequencies and a 12-inch high excursion, super light, high rigidity cone woofer for low frequencies. The speaker has a frequency response of 30–22,000 Hz ±3dB, sensitivity of 90 dB/2.83 volts/meter, and an impedance of 4 Ohms (1.2 at 20kHz), compatible with 4, 6, or 8 Ohm rated amplifiers. It requires 20 to 500 watts per channel and has a crossover frequency at 180 Hz. The design includes custom-wound audio transformers, polypropylene capacitors, and air core coils, with 5-way bi-wire binding posts for connectivity. The speaker weighs 91 lbs (41.3 kg) and measures 71" × 18" × 13". It has been discontinued. The reQuest is known for its large electrostatic panel area, seamless electrostatic membrane above 200 Hz requiring no crossover networks in the critical zone, and a woofer used in high-end Martin Logan models, making it a highly regarded classic electrostatic speaker system.
