I really hope you enjoyed the video, please remember this is, as always a complete one man production, I am the presenter the camerman, the sound guy the editor and everything else. I worked my hardest to make the highest possible quality videos I can, but they are still run and gun short turn around projects, so they will not be 100% perfect. Still I hope you enjoyed it and please click the thumbs up if you did. Thanks all the best
As a founder of a video production company, I can say that you should be very proud of this videos production value. It has got good story telling, interesting technical information and a decent tempo with visits to the factory and several people interviewed. You could have developed the story with more information on Jorma cables and Svanå acoustics (changes reflections in terms of timing) shown in the video. You could also have put a minute of information regarding the different people’s background, like Martin’s background as sales manager of Audiovector. Just suggestions, you are the the person that decides and some times it’s better to make several shorter videos. Hope you enjoyed Gothenburg
I heard Marten Septet speakers for the first time at the Hifi Live show in the UK this year. They were paired with Gryphon Apex amplifiers, and I was blown away by them! I sat in that room for over an hour and only left because the show was coming to an end. 😂
I'm glad to hear you had a good time in my home town Gothenburg! Great video, more of these please. You're doing a fantastic job. Also good job not mentioning Flowers & Pilkins ;)
Hi Terry, This is a really nice video to view going into much detail about Marten & their classy speakers in an easy to relate to way. Thankyou for all the effort you put into this one......☺
Been using the Miles 5 for about 7 years now, I think. I love how they pair with my Luxman L-590AX MkII amplifier. Thanks for the video! Great to the inside of Marten.
Great video! I live nearby the factory and I also have happened to meet one of the carpenters who work for the company which makes the wooden bodies of Marten's speakers! Great to have a look into what goes on behind Marten-speakers!
Absolutely brilliant video👍 Thank you Terry for visiting Marten in my homeland 🇸🇪 and my beloved old hometown Gothenburg❤️ Inspired by this video I must contact Marten to visit their HQ and listen to these speakers next time I visit Sweden.
Fantastic insight into the Marten brand Terry. Well done as always! I've always been curious about the brand as the range toppers cost millions here in South Africa. You can literally buy a house for a pair. Indeed ultra high quality, which very few of us can afford. Thanks for doing these kinds of videos.
Hi Terry, Thank you for the great you have done in this video. Its a lot of work for sure. Marten is my favourite brand in hi-fi. I'have heard the oscar Duo and Trio, the Parker Duo and Trio, the mingus septet and the quintet and the coltrane quintet statement edition. I love all of them but the Migus Septet with MSB electronics was my favourite so far. Almost bought an oscar tiro but it was bit too much in my room. I hope i could buy a Parker Trio one day which is my second favourite so far. The oscar and parker uses custom made SB acoustic drivers. The real value of these beautiful Marten speakers comes from designing those crossovers, producing those magical finishes, and those isoacoustic feets, all together in a package that is hard to made.
Marten mainly uses Accuton drivers & Accuton is from germany so probably the best speakers come from germany? Jus a thought. Having said that, i recall an unforgettable experience listening to the 1st generation Coltrane with diamond tweeter. I couldn’t listen to my Harbeth shl5 for 2 weeks right after listening to the Coltrane!
Superb video... thoroughly enjoyed it and would love to see more of this style showing us the whole process in bringing such a high quality product to market
Fantastic video Terry! Great that you made time for the Oscar and Parker. As a proud owner of the Parker Trio, I know how amazing the Marten brand is. I was lucky enough to demo Magico, B&W, ProAc and YG against the Parker Trio that were in a similar price bracket. Honestly, for me, there was really no contest for my taste. Beautifully controlled bass, unbelievable imaging, huge soundstage and an uncanny clarity and transparency. .... and you're right about the craftsmanship and finishing on Marten speakers. Visually stunning as well! Thanks again.
Very good video in every way, thanks! On your way back you could visit a few Danish manufacturers. And after that my place to interview Mola Mola and Grimm Audio. 😊
@@PursuitPerfectSystemI watched one of your old videos from when you did a qutest demo 5-6 years ago the other day, your content quality has become world class, I can’t begin to imagine all the time and effort you put into it all, great job mate! You should be very proud 👍🏻
Thanks very much Russell, when I started I had never used a real camera before and had never edited a video or anything like that. It’s been a very steep leaning curve but thanks very much for noticing the progress I have made :)
Did you get to Cranage at the weekend? I noticed Doug Bradey had a pair of Martens in their area. It was spoilt by the open area and every room playing the same song in my opinion.
Hi Terry, Great content. Thank you so much. Should money and look not be an object, would you rather go for a Coltrane Quintet or a Mingus Orchestra for a comparable size room. Best
Oh man how I do answer that, I love the exposed carbon fibre look of the Coltrane and they would probably win me over. However I also like the form factor of the Mingus a little more in terms of the driver line array of the bigger ones. I would need to listen a lot more to answer this that is a super hard question either way you would be a happy man
Thank you for your quick response. 8:52 I heard both the Coltrane 3 and the Mingus Orchestra. Each time in very good conditions. Too me the size of the Mingus made it a clear winner compared to the Coltrane 3( more volume …) especially for hard to play symphonic orchestra. I still have to listen to the Coltrane Quintet I guess. .. Can five years of technical improvement make the difference ? The Quintet seems to benefit from pretty interesting upgrades. I agree with you the look of the Quintet is stunning.
I get confused with the marten speaker naming, interestingly one of the guys in the video who makes the speakers he took the quintet home to test against some Mingus speakers he had and he said he thought the Coltrane was better. But maybe room size will dictate this some
Just to makes things clearer ( I hope) the Coltrane 3 are Marten speakers (which I had in my house on my system and) which have been on the market for quite a long time now. They are being replaced by the Coltrane Quintet which I did not have a chance to listen to yet. However many people whom have been listening to the Coltrane Quintet mainly at Munich High End 24 were pretty impressed by this new speakers. Terry, during the interview of Martin at Marten, was sitting in the listening room with Coltrane Quintet and Mingus Orchestra being displayed. I listened again to the video and could not find the comment on a comparison in between the Coltrane Quintet and a Mingus. I assume this was said off line. But yes, room size will possibly be a factor to consider. Also, I heard from one end user of Marten speakers that, in his room, a rather small room, the Coltrane 3 was easier to fine tune compared to the Mingus Orchestra. Bass control, again in his very specific room, was an issue. I did not observe myself this problem in two different listening sessions in two different ( large) places, with the Mingus Orchestra. As said the next step will be to test the Coltrane Quintet. And if I want to listen to both at the same time in a similar set up, I will have to fly to Gothenburg... which I will likely do.... As said I started the thread hoping someone had compared Coltrane Quintet and Mingus Orchestra. Thanks for your time.
I did ask the guys to play the big speakers, and I think in that size listening room I preferred the overall sound of the larger speaker because it was more full and filling of that space. However the newer Coltrane sounded faster but I wanted more bass, I always want more bass. Hope that helps some. In a smaller room the room would add more so there would be a lot more bass so the larger speaker might have been choked by the surroundings being too small. Like I said the Marten worker who took the Coltrane home into a more normal type and size of room really liked them over what he had. That all happened while I was there.
@@PursuitPerfectSystem Yes. Not an issue with the price. The craftsmanship is superb. I just found the concept of 'free delivery' funny as hell on £100k speakers .... as if that would be a deal-breaker!!😂😂
Having gigged for a decade and recording a lot. I find it interesting that someone would pay more for a speaker than the entire band paid for all their instruments, studio time and years honing, their craft. Yes, I am an audiophile/musician
Excellent video. Those speakers are beautiful. Every time I see Halcro amps I get a bad taste in my mouth. The DM-58’s had the fastest depreciation of any audio product I’ve owned
But not in my Quadral+ Platinum Seven and other Quadral+s I have. There are a number of cables inside those and all are 4mm². Therefore my speaker cables are 4mm² too.
People forget everything that goes into a speaker or any hifi it’s never just the parts it’s the R&D all the companies build and running costs insurances shipping taxes and the manufacturer does not get all the money either. In order for the speakers to be available all over the world to demo is not free, the. Support for those products and the service of someone delivering them, setting them up and maybe loaning kit to you to test to find the perfect system. None of that is free
Big question - are the World's best hi fi speakers made in Sweden? There must be many claimants down the years from as many nations; and I doubt that the basics have been improved upon to this day. The original Quad ELS, JBL L100's, ESL 63's, Martin Logan, Meridian D6000, Townshend Glastonbury 2, Apogee Duetta Signature, MBL, Roundtree Acoustics Omnimon, the list goes on. Some I've heard, some I haven't, all worthy contenders, including this one
"The Septet is a closed box, no bass reflex or anything like that." A passive radiator system IS a bass reflex system, not a 'closed box' system. 'Closed box' generally refers to a sealed box, which the Septet is not.
One would be better served searching for the best recordings instead of the best speakers or gear. The best recordings are essentially audibly flawless on just about any equipment that resides well before the line where diminished returns take over. Computers are simulating, designing and proving what amounts to audibly flawless products, even before the first hard prototypes are made. Everything else just tends to be a different coloration of what should be a relatively neutral response. I know someone who bought speakers for just under $20k, and had to add $50k worth of room treatment to make them work. Meanwhile, the consumer brand (JBL) bookshelf speakers in his wife's sewing room sound nearly as good with no additional considerations.
Yes.... they have east. I live in the west. Their speaker are beautiful and through your coverage in the past and this video I m very interested in acquiring one in the near future. You do a wonderful job bringing us this type of content so we can make the best choice of equipment. From Utah.
Marten first needs to design speaker and crossover which gives a flat and neutral on and off axis responce. All those super hifi diamond ultra drivers doesnt help if the design is flawed.
First order crossovers have all the information, whereas second order crossovers leak information. The signal is partially short circuited, instead of going tnrough the driver. 😅
To be fair these speakers are nothing like Magico's where does this comment even come from? Magico is all about aluminium, these make nothing out of aluminium?
Incredible speakers. Been thinking about changing my Sonus Faber Aida for the Coltrane quintet, Can you please advise? They are not cheap at all, I think about 167K for the quintet, which is the best in their line in your opinion. My friend in LA has the quintet. Thanks

Thanks very much for hosting me and allowing me to come 👍
So my firstname is Marten, and I am not that long into hifi, and now I shall make it my goal to one day own a pair 😄🤙 cheers from The Netherlands
Terry seems a very open and honest reviewer.
Martenspeakers , Hi why nobody answer for phone when I calling to Jorma all the time?
@@marcinlis645 Maybe they are doing speaker listening sessions and can't hear the phone 😊
Very cool to see a Swedish brand featured. I live about a two hour drive from the factory.
They are one of the best !
Have you heard Lumen White Speakers yet ?
One of my friends just got a pair and they are the very best we have ever heard !
This makes me really proud, both for being Swedish and owning a pair of Parker Trio 🤩❤️👍

yeah small world :)

Thanks Nathaniel
Those are Accuton drivers and tailored for Marten’s specification. Great video love Marten speakers, thanks for the tour!
I think Accuton manufacture some of them, but not all of them
@@PursuitPerfectSystem But why not tell the name in the video ? Is the other brand you think of using them Gauder Akustik ?
@@PursuitPerfectSystem Ah I see , well all the ones in your pictures were Accutom, they’re exceptional drivers , my speakers have Accutons as well.
They using Accuton for all speakers before now they change because Accuton is more expensive and they buy speakers from SB acoustics
Very nice video by a nice informative person
Marten speakers are beautiful and incredibly good.
About the question : a prefer Magico .
Great video work! Man, those” speakers are badass.
Thanks Don
Superb speakers! Thank you also for highlighting the Halcro Eclipse amplifiers that are driving them.
Great video!
Thank you
Limitless product innovation!
My fave: use of live music, in SAME ROOM, to help voice the speakers!
Thank you Terry,, 👍😎👍
Most enjoyable ❤❤❤ welldone ❤...
Hi Terry,
I'm the proud owner of Marten Parker Duo, great speakers bought at Ultimate Audio Elite in Lisbon.

The first song is Funk Wife Punk Life By L.M. Styles
thanks for the quick answer. great bass line, keep following you
I am sure that they have Australian made Halcro amplifiers in their setup. Brilliant amps.
Scandinavian countries make great audio equipment
I’d like to know more about the internal structure of hi end loudspeakers.

Excellent video. Those speakers are beautiful. Every time I see Halcro amps I get a bad taste in my mouth. The DM-58’s had the fastest depreciation of any audio product I’ve owned
Jorma statement cables inside, a big difference from the junk in most speakers.....
But not in my Quadral+ Platinum Seven and other Quadral+s I have. There are a number of cables inside those and all are 4mm². Therefore my speaker cables are 4mm² too.
would a moissanite composite diaphragm be good? i think so
How much margin is made in the high-end audio world? If you take the Marten Oscar Trio as an example, the margin is considerable.

That are a lot of components for a 1ste order filter??
How much is the Coltrane Quintet worth in US currency?
My God, what an overloaded crossover - what is left of the music there ??? 😳
Dammer!

Big question - are the World's best hi fi speakers made in Sweden? There must be many claimants down the years from as many nations; and I doubt that the basics have been improved upon to this day.

They do have a North American distributor. Check "Representatives" on their web page. The NA distributor lists about 7 US dealers and some in Canada.
Still in two minds whether to get a pair of Oscar duo's 🤔
Lot of money make sure you have a good listen before making the decision

Yah yah sveeden sveeden!!! But those are Lederhosen. 😮😅
Lederhosen culture are southern Germany, Austria and northern Italy.
they are made of the same material ocean gate used
Fusion 360 CAD :)
Are you useing 1:st order crossover in a two way speaker ?
Pretty sure Marten Parker Duo is 1st order crossover yes - 2 way with a passive
@@PursuitPerfectSystem But i think that the driver will play too loud near the breakup point for a alloy cone driver maybe. (mid-bass driver)
I am not the speaker designer sorry I don't know
But the good thing with hard cone drivers is that they have better piston-like behavior.
lol why is HELVETE! (swedish for DAMIT! or HELL!) written at the table :D at t=5:38? (th-cam.com/video/JYZJ4mLEcfo/w-d-xo.html)
😂 I saw that too, It says something about " ...said... no.. mess...on cart...DAMN IT" I guess someone made a mess and messed up some of the boards
I am waiting for carbon nitride tweeters, youguess it, they're even harder than diamond.
There is no "Best". The term is only for "bragging rights", not defining audio quality.
Eventually we will have graphene drivers.
Executive summary ... NO! 😁
It's a lot of money for speakers.
Speakers for the ultra rich ya 200,000 set of towers i would hope has life time warranty
speakers which cost mega money better hit 100db at 20hz….
They are build in Japan!
TAD are the best if you ask me.
there's no such thing as the world's best speaker everybody's hearing is different what can be best for you could be awful for someone else.
Stop copying Magico
To be fair these speakers are nothing like Magico's where does this comment even come from? Magico is all about aluminium, these make nothing out of aluminium?
nonsense
how
Incredible speakers. Been thinking about changing my Sonus Faber Aida for the Coltrane quintet, Can you please advise? They are not cheap at all, I think about 167K for the quintet, which is the best in their line in your opinion. My friend in LA has the quintet.
Thanks
