Martin Logan Aerius i

 Twenty years ago (from the past 1996) Martin Logan presents "Aerius i" one of the ESL series, a wonder in dimension, technology and price. The Aerius i requires only 1 square foot of floor space making it an outstanding addition for small apartments and dedicated home theaters. Available in matte black with a variety of handfinished hardwood trim. Single and bi-wire capable.

 At the heart of every Martin Logan speaker -  the patented curvilinear electrostatic transducer -lies an ultrathin transparent diaphragm. Driven by charged electrons and weighing less than the air it moves, the diaphragm is so responsive it reproduces sound at levels only associated with the finest audio electronics.

With indistinguishably low distortion, the patented Martin Logan diaphragm precisely tracks the input signal, engages the air, and transmits the audio signal to your ear - flawlessly. The ESL’s low distortion and curvilinear line source combine to provide minimal room interaction, detail, power, and clarity; unavailable any other way.
