Martin-Logan’s new Dynamo subwoofers pack as much technology into a small enclosure as modern science will allow, yet still manages to be affordable. The new Dynamo subwoofers use smartphone app control, smartphone app room equalization, and supports a wireless signal receiver, all while improving upon the performance of their predecessors. I got a chance to visit their factory in Lawrence Kansas to get a product overview and comparison of the series with the folks at MartinLogan.

Hey Eugene what do you think about Marantz 8003 amplifier
What isn’t there to like, Martin-Logan make amazing products, With this range, the host of available functions, innovative flip action and app control, though with a forward facing sub no port? I wonder if during the design stage they compared sealed with ported
Gene, does having on-board room equalization mean that we no longer have to room crawl to “find” (or is it “achieve”?) good placement locations for (in my case) two subs? UPS just delivered a pair of the 800Xs.
No thanks. 800 bucks for a 10 inch sub. Hsu vtf 3 mk 5 with a 15 inch driver will blow that thing out of the water for the same price. I don’t know why anyone would buy these subs against the ID companies. So much more performance for your money going ID. I love Martin Logan speakers though.
Gene, why spike it to the floor? I was always under the impression that subs should be decoupled from the floor? Is the spike used only for carpeting?
Second question: under what circumstances would one want to change from down-firing to front?
Thank you so much for bringing us important information about this products
Love the intro!
Loving the new software with subs to be able to make adjustments with your phone and wireless capability…wish my pb 12’s would do that
great infomation
“That’s not a trick, THIS is a trick”, says SVS boxes..
I like Gene’s shirt. It’s saying: “After this interview, I’m hitting the Club.”
Great video Gene. All the best from Poland
how is the 12 inch better or improved over the MartinLogan Dynamo 1000w?
I was sold until The Marketing guy sounded like a sales guy with the Phone’s Microphone measurement gimmick, c’mon man!!! *sigh*smh
Do folks have any advice for putting a subwoofer in a bedroom with one connected to neighbor? I tried towers, but takes up too much vertical space
Wish these got lower than they do. I don’t want to invest in something this expensive again unless it goes down to at least 16hz. None of these do.
I thought that you should not flip any speaker that shoots verticaly to horizontal and viceversa becuase the slight change in impedance… maybe this issue is not audible at all and it does not matter a lot in the end.
