DualForce™ ESL Bass Technology
CLX’s unique DualForce™ ESL double diaphragm, triple
stator dipole low-frequency transducer delivers deep,
dynamic bass with twice as much force as a standard ESL.
Dipole Phase Stabilization
CLX’s low-frequency dipole stabilization technology
reduces low frequency rear wave cancellation inherent to
dipole transducers. This is accomplished by increasing the
air path length behind the CLX and delaying the out-of-
phase back wave. The resulting decrease in low-frequency
front-wave cancellation increases overall output while
minimizing total harmonic distortion at low frequencies.
Precision Vojtko™ Filtering
Within the CLX’s interface module, a regulated power sup-
ply creates stable bias voltages even under the most extreme
conditions. Dual transformer design utilizes a toroidal
audio transformer for detailed mid- and high-frequen-
cies, and a high-quality, high-voltage E.I. transformer for
dynamic, linear bass. All high-voltage leads are made of the
purest copper and coated with silicone. Only superlative
materials, including thick film on alumina substrate resis-
tors and polypropylene capacitors, are used throughout.
Environmentally Conscious Design
In addition to total dedication for unmatched per-
formance, environmentally conscious considerations
influenced the design and engineering of the CLX. This
includes an advanced energy management design in its
electrical circuitry and the use of rapidly renewable or
highly recyclable structural materials like EcoSound™.
EcoSound is the proprietary advent of a Martin Logan alli-
ance with Klip BioTechnologies, LLC, the leading innovator
and manufacturer of certified eco-conscious materials.
EcoSound is composed of an FSC certified 50/50 blend
of plantation grown, rapidly renewable bamboo fiber and
post consumer recycled paper. These materials are bound
by a revolutionary co-polymer resin system that is 100%
water based and VOC free. CLX is the obvious first applica-
tion for this remarkable new audiophile grade material and
yet another giant step forward in Martin Logan’s continu-
ing commitment to produce irresistible high value products
from environmentally intelligent materials.
