CES!

The show finally started and there’s been loads of visitors today. We’re sharing room with Nagra again this time, just like in Munich.

Here’s Leif, doing the fine tuning.

The new Coltrane Tenor sound awesome together with Nagra’s electronics and Jorma Design’s cables.

We also have a few pairs of speaker scattered across CES but we’ll chat about that later.

Cheers

A room with a view

The view from our room at the Venetian Las Vegas.

Yes, we’re here yet again for high end audio, fun and of course lots of music. Please come and see us in room 29229 if you’re in the area. The show starts on Tuesday but our room is almost ready so maybe we have time for some relaxing. We’ll show you more tomorrow.

Cheers

Christmas came early

There’s only a few weeks to go and the excitement is building at Marten HQ. Las Vegas CES 2013 is just around the corner. (Oh, and there’s Christmas too).

We’re launching two new models at the CES – Django L and Coltrane Tenor.

Yes, that’s right – Django L is here! Following in response to last year’s success, Django XL, we had to build this. We’re really happy with the result. In fact it’s exceeded our expectations. This one is 2-way, with bass units from Norwegian SEAS and tweeter from Accuton.

We’re really proud of Coltrane Tenor too. It has newly designed bass units and we think it sounds great.

We had a sneak preview in our hometown of Gothenburg as we talked about in our previous post, but the world premiere will be at the CES. We hope you can visit us in Las Vegas, but if not, just follow all the action here.

We’ll be right back with even more stuff.

Only the sky is the limit

The weather is always lovely under the painted ceiling at the Venetian:)

Here’s some more stuff from our floor.

Bright red electronics from Oracle Audio.

Today’s favourite

We keep playing the track ‘Geronimo’s Free’ by Ted Sirota’s Rebel Souls. It sounds awesome on our system.

CES kicking off!

Back at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas for CES 2012. Marten have been exhibiting for more than a decade at CES and every year is more fun than the previous. We have now opened the doors to the Marten room and the show is already busy.

Goodbye Europe

Hello U.S.A.

Here we are again in glimmering Las Vegas preparing for CES 2012. We have a feeling this years show will be cooler than ever with all the attention the Djangos already have had.

See you soon.

Attention!

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.

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.
