Truth can be
revealed only through uncomprmised commitment to the highest concepts. The
Quest re-creates musical truth through proprietary Electrostatic Loudspeaker
technology available only from Martin Logan.
Daring in both form and function, the Quest delivers everything from the
most delicate detail to the most inspired crescendo.
Complete
Engineering
Only after
exhaustive Coputer Aided Design and final listening sessions did our design
team put their signature of approval on the Quest interface system. This high-density composite sub-woofer
cabinet provides maximum rigidity and damping to minimize vibration and
distortion, resulting in tighter bass. The sub-woofer driver has the strength
of "powered" woofers, while blending with the lightning fast
performance of our propietary electrostatic transducer technology. Both woofer
and midrange control switches are provided to give you additional flexibility
to tailor the audio signal to your room environment. Bi-wire capability is
provided for those who demend even more purity of sound.
Superb
Components
Within the
interface module, a regulated power supply creates stable voltage even under
the most extreme conditions. The audio transformer, utilizing high-purity
copper and the finest laminates, is vacuum-epoxy dipped for ultimate signal
refinement and high voltage protection. All
high-voltage leads are made from the purest copper and coated with
teflon. Only superlative materials, including polypropylene capacitors are used
throughout.
Transparent
Purity
Weighing a
total of less than one cubic inch of air, our thin film diaphragm can change
motion as quickly as air itself. Martin
Logan designers have curved the membrane to form a pure thirty-degree
dispersion sound field for uncompromised performance without the need for
extraneous devices. For the first time in history, pure ESL transparency and
resolution can be experienced in a wide dispersion field.
Complement
Your Living Environment
A full
selection of standard wood finishes is available to match your decor.
Other
finishes may be custom-ordered. Before building any unit, we carefully selected
and match all woods by hand. After the wood is fitted to the system, multiple
coats of hand-rubbed lacquer are applied.
To
accommodate your taste, the Quest is available with any of our grill cloth
choices. Both the wood trim and grill cloth options are completely flexible and
can be added or changed at any time.
