The MartinLogan Summit X is a high-end hybrid electrostatic speaker inspired by the CLX model, combining a high-resolution XStat CLS electrostatic transducer for mids and highs with dual 10-inch Controlled Dispersion PoweredForce aluminum cone woofers for deep, smooth bass. It uses a precision Vojtko Voiced crossover at 270Hz with variable phasing for seamless blending. Features include adjustable vertical dispersion via modular feet (12-degree range), 25Hz and 50Hz level controls (±10dB), illuminated controls and ground effects lighting. Ideal for large and medium rooms as stereo or home theater fronts. Discontinued model with state-of-the-art transparency, midrange clarity, and powerful bass.
