MartinLogan Script i Floorstanding Loudspeakers This versatile on-wall electrostat is the perfect surround speaker for any MartinLogan home theater system. A great speaker for almost any application and perfect for surrounds, Script i makes ultimate-performance home theatre easy. Its advanced CLS Generation 2 electrostatic panel and high-resolution 6.5-inch bass-reflex woofer deliver true MartinLogan sound - powerful, richly ambient, and brimming with lustrous detail. No other on-wall comes close. Just 7 inches deep. Audition available to the serious buyers only. Condition: Very Good Payment M
Compared with the obvious alternative of buying a basic passive surround pair at this level, this is good value: the Script originally sat at AUD 2,750 equivalent for the pair, and a used asking price of AUD 650 is well below that, so it reads as a strong buy rather than a stretch. If the drivers, panels, and wall hardware are intact, the price is comfortably in the “grab it” zone for a niche MartinLogan surround.
What makes it worth chasing is the usual MartinLogan appeal: fast electrostatic clarity, very smooth imaging, and a presentation that can make surrounds disappear in a good theater setup. The Script is specifically designed as a flexible wall-mount surround or stereo speaker, so it has real utility beyond collector appeal. At this price, a clean, very good-condition pair is exactly the kind of used-listing that rewards an enthusiast who wants high-end surround performance without paying anywhere near original money.

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.
