Momento in the Land of Smiles:)

Momento in Bangkok

We have a brand new distributor in Bangkok – Thailand, the home of beautiful silk, delicious green curry and long sandy beaches.

Unfortunately we were not able to go to the very exclusive ‘BAV Hi-End show 2011′ in Bangkok where they exhibited. We don’t want to brag:) but we heard that our speakers were very well received and apparently some customers even suggested that they were ‘best in show ‘.

A big welcome our new distributor:

Attention!

Las Vegas

Since CES 2011 we have received a lot of attention at different places around the internet. Here are some of the mentions we’ve had:

“The system looked and sounded truly wonderful, and both amps and speakers are well worth checking out.”

Alan Sircom at The Absolute Sound

“At last year’s CES, many of my favorite rooms featured Sweden’s Marten speakers. The same held true this year.”

Thank you for the music:) Erick Lichte, at stereophile

“So, how did it sound? Simply put, it was outstanding, highly detailed, very transparent and musical at the same time.”

Key Kim at Stereotimes

“Another Swedish company making an excellent impression was Marten

the Audio Beat

“This was one of the few rooms to treat the room, and it contributed to an intimate, stimulating demonstration.”

Dagogo.com

“Uber bass resolution.”

Audio Federation

“Sweden’s Marten is well-regarded for its high-end speakers and takes a fair amount of pride in their audiophile-pleasing performance.”

Paul Ridden at Gizmag

A massive thank you to all of you, from all of us here at Marten.

Just one more thing…

from CES.

We received a lot of attention for our brilliant diffusors from Svanå Miljöteknik in Sweden.

Trump Tower - Svanå Miljöteknik

Apparently there's a famous building in the background but we keep the focus on more important things:)

These diffusors are the nicest looking ones that I have ever seen. They are normally rather colossal with the WAF factor on a bare minimum.

Upstairs, Downstairs

The last day of the CES 2011 we took some time to check out the posher suites upstairs from us. We bumped in to lovely Neli from Audio Federation. It’s very ‘enthusiasing’ to meet people so enthusiastic about audio.
