Vraagprijs: € 1.100, Serieus bod welkom. Het is de uitvoering met eiken lijsten links en rechts. De martinlogan aerius is een hybride elektrostatische luidspreker uit de eerste productiegeneratie
At €1,100, this asking price sits above the typical used median of roughly €774 for the MartinLogan Aerius, making it ambitious rather than a bargain, though still within the broader €700–€900 range seen for clean units. While not a strong deal, the price reflects a seller likely confident in the condition or rarity of their pair.
The Aerius remains well-regarded for its hybrid design, blending an electrostatic panel for crisp midrange and treble with a moving-coil woofer for solid bass, delivering open, detailed sound ideal for small to medium rooms. Its compact footprint (just 1 sq ft floor space) and high sensitivity (89dB) make it a practical, efficient choice. At this price, it’s a worthwhile buy if the listing confirms original panels, no scuffs, and includes stands or bi-amp capability—offering a rare chance to own a respected vintage electrostatic without the premium of newer MartinLogan models.

MartinLogan emerged in the late 1970s from Lawrence, Kansas, when Gayle Martin Sanders and Ron Logan Sutherland, sharing a passion for electrostatic loudspeakers, united their engineering and design expertise. The duo, whose middle names inspired the brand, unveiled their breakthrough at the 1983 CES with the Monolith—the world's first practical hybrid electrostatic speaker, blending a curved panel for mids and highs with a dynamic woofer for bass. This American innovation addressed longstanding electrostatic limitations like fragility and poor low-end response, propelling the company from a high-end audio store collaboration to a dedicated manufacturing powerhouse.
The brand specializes in electrostatic and hybrid speakers, from flagship floorstanders like the CLX and Summit X to more accessible Motion Series designs, alongside complementary powered subwoofers and select electronics. Their proprietary thin-film transducers, advanced panel assembly, and room-optimized engineering define a lineup that prioritizes transparency and precision over conventional dynamic drivers, eschewing amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, MartinLogan commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its unwavering commitment to electrostatic purity, delivering ethereal soundstaging and timbral accuracy that make cabinets vanish. Now part of the PML group alongside Paradigm and Anthem, it blends Kansas heritage with rigorous innovation, appealing to buyers seeking reference-level realism in home audio and theater systems.
