About the Montis
The MartinLogan Montis is a flagship hybrid electrostatic loudspeaker designed for audiophiles seeking the ultimate in clarity, detail, and musicality. It features MartinLogan’s proprietary CLS™ XStat electrostatic transducer for the midrange and treble, paired with a 10-inch, high-excursion aluminum cone woofer in a sealed enclosure for deep, controlled bass. The Montis is housed in an ultra-rigid, extruded aluminum composite AirFrame™, which minimizes vibration and ensures precise sound reproduction. Advanced MicroPerf stator technology increases diaphragm exposure for higher efficiency and dynamic range. The speaker is powered by a 200-watt Class D amplifier dedicated to the woofer, with a 24-bit Vojtko DSP engine for digital signal processing and precise crossover integration. Integrated low-frequency equalization below 100Hz allows for room-specific bass tailoring. The Montis is praised for its compact footprint, high sensitivity, and ability to deliver a lifelike, immersive soundstage.
