About the Ascent i
The Martin Logan Ascent i is a flagship hybrid electrostatic loudspeaker designed for audiophiles seeking exceptional clarity, imaging, and dynamic range. It features a large, reference-quality electrostatic transducer for mid and high frequencies, paired with a high-resolution woofer for deep, accurate bass. The Ascent i is celebrated for its ability to create a large, immersive soundstage with a sense of realism and air that is rare among conventional speakers. Its rigidly braced, sculpted cabinet is both acoustically inert and visually striking, making it suitable for both stereo and home theater applications.
