The MartinLogan Fresco i represents the culmination of
an intensive, dedicated group research program directed
toward establishing a world class reference monitor utilizing
leading-edge technology, without compromising durability,
reliability, craftsmanship or aesthetic design.
The advantages of MartinLogan ATF (advanced thin film)
technology will present themselves to you from the moment
the sound begins. The box effect (a phenomenon similar
to cupping your hand around your mouth when speaking)
produced by dynamic drivers is absent and the natural
openness of the human voice comes through. Sounds
clearly define the area from where they were actually
created, not the area of the speaker that created them.
The materials in your new Fresco i speaker are of the
highest
quality and will provide years of enduring
enjoyment and
deepening respect. The cabinetry is
constructed from the highest quality HIPP (high-impact
polypropylene) to create an acoustically inert, high-density
enclosure.
This User’s Manual will explain in detail the operation
of your Fresco i speaker and the philosophy applied
to its design. A clear understanding of your speakers
will ensure that you obtain maximum performance and
pleasure from this most exacting transducer. It has been
designed and constructed to provide years of trouble-free
listening enjoyment.
