Description
Marten Parker Duo – High and Mighty
Parker Duo is the stand speaker of the Parker series. New for 2020, the series sits squarely in the middle of our product range – a position which has long been held by our Heritage series. Parker elevates our loudspeakers in this class to a whole new level.
What You Get
With custom designed technology and perfectly balanced build techniques, Parker Duo is new in every way, but remains faithful to the Marten way of recreating sound as it is in life. With extreme resonance reduction, the cabinet is truly free of the soundstage, letting music and emotion take centre stage.
Distortion-Free Cabinets
The cabinet features sleek, tapering sides created from M-board, a multi-layered material offering extreme resonance reduction. Parker Duo is so resonance-free, it completely disappears within the soundstage. The newly designed cabinet balances visual appeal with low-impact on sound.
Custom Ceramic Drivers
Ceramic drivers are custom designed by Leif Olofsson to meet the needs of a loudspeaker in this class. Each unit has a very long linear excursion and utilises the powerful Neodynium magnet system for control. Custom designed components allow a more holistic way of building a system, making Parker Duo a super-refined Marten speaker.
Upgrade to Diamond Edition
Parker Duo can be upgraded to Diamond Edition, featuring a pure Diamond tweeter, Jorma Statement internal cables, more advanced crossover components and improved terminals. All Parker models can be elevated to the ultimate in premium loudspeakers.
Full, Controlled Bass and Midrange
The 7.5” bass/midrange ceramic driver offers a large surface area resulting in an open, precise soundstage and great dynamics, while the passive radiator gives better control of the lower frequencies. A speaker of this class demands the ultimate in bass response.
Advanced Crossover Design
A multi-diverse crossover technique was developed through hours of listening and testing, plus rigorous simulation, calculation and measurement. We’ve really put the work in with this crossover, using the best components and precisely tuning it to work with the system.
Jorma Design Internal Wiring
We use Jorma Design internal wiring for its exemplary quality and performance. Handmade in Sweden, the cables use separate + and – for enhanced shielding and the highest quality Copper. This offers natural, transparent sound; the perfect choice for our speakers.
Optional Stand
The optional stand is Marten-designed to work in concert with Parker Duo. Three extremely rigid pillars are mounted on a steel base plate which is weighted for stability and vibration control.
Feet and Isolation
With IsoAcoustics we created Marten Isolators. This precision product allows the cabinet to be completely isolated from the floor, reducing resonance and distortion – leaving the soundstage free. Dynamic bass with increased power and control, natural openness and clarity, optimised for cabinet weight, and suitable for any surface including carpet.
Your Space
Parker works well at every scale – from the most modest to the grandest of rooms. Even the smallest model, Parker Duo, has the ability to command a large living space thanks to shared quality components across the range.
