The crown jewel of the Mingus series offers the strength & clarity that only Diamond drivers can. We forged our current design & technology in a beautifully formed cabinet. Employing technology & design cues from Coltrane & Heritage a bridge between both.

The Mingus Orchestra employs our market-leading first order crossover. Combined with Cell drivers from Accuton, this creates flawless time coincidence, as well as perfect time and phase coherence. The result is record-low distortion, delivering the most natural and dynamic sound.

With two Diamond drivers, the sound is so clean and true that you can hear every nuance and motion of your music.

Diamond Domes -  Sound that sparkles.

Pure Diamond is the ultimate material for speaker membranes. Used in the high-frequency range, its stiffness-to-weight ratio and internal sound velocity are unsurpassed.

Diamond is also the best heat conductor known to man. This is essential for loudspeaker membranes, providing the best heatsink for the voice coil; resulting in high power handling and very low compression.

The sonic character of our Diamond tweeters is not what you might expect. Others can sound ‘overly brilliant’ or ‘hard-as-diamond’. Harmonic distortion can be a problem too. Our crossover has been carefully designed to deal with this. In fact, you get the opposite – the Diamonds simply disappear, leaving only your music.

Ceramic Domes -  Advanced Technology for Natural Sound.

Hard ceramic is light, yet extremely rigid, making it one of the best materials for speaker membranes – it’s also known as Sapphire. 

Our ceramic domes have a high internal damping factor, because of a refined electrochemical process. The membrane also has a high material resonance frequency, meaning distortion is minimal; offering a level of clarity that is the holy grail for high end speaker domes.

Bass Drivers for The Very Low frequencies. Low distortion.

The Cell bass driver units have long excursion, extremely low distortion levels and a hidden surround. Made of Aluminium sandwich honeycomb, the drivers offer rich, dynamic bass performance with a powerful presentation.

Our Cabinets - Crafted for Strength.

Mingus Orchestra’s dramatic cabinet is finished in Piano Black, with solid wood tops and bottoms handmade by local craftsmen in Sweden.

We use specially selected, medium-density fibreboard with optimum rigidity to create high-quality, resonance-free cabinets. 

The shape and dimensions of the cabinet have been carefully considered to deal with reflections from the drivers: giving low resonance and diffraction control. The internal structure and bracing keep the cabinet rigid and resonance-free. 

Each cabinet is finished with precision veneer and lacquering. The lacquer is carefully built up of 7 layers, each hand-polished in between drying.

Tops & Bottoms - Finishes the Way You Want

Mingus Orchestra can be finished with tops and bottoms in solid wood or high-gloss lacquered fibreboard.

Opt for, carefully selected walnut or oak to give you a warm, natural finish, or for those more bold among us, there are five contemporary gloss finishes: Piano Black, Piano Grey, Piano Plum, Piano Red and Piano Gold.

Internal Wiring - Premium cables for purer sound.

We use Jorma 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.

Cables are integral components, so they must work harmoniously with our precision design and build. Jorma delivers exactly what a Marten speaker demands.

 Custom Isolation Feet - A New Level of Isolation.

The reduction of resonance is important to the design of our speakers – it can mean the difference between a good speaker and a great speaker. 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 & clarity

- Optimized for cabinet weight

- Resists lateral movement and oscillations 

- Reduces Internal Reflections

- Suitable for carpets and rugs

Premium Crossover - We never follow the path of least resistance.

Marten worked tirelessly to refine the crossover so it would work perfectly with Accuton Cell drivers. It wasn’t an easy task, but it was the clear solution.

The first order crossover makes it possible to have perfect time and phase coherence; and flawless time coincidence. This means that all registers are generated at the exact same moment, as it was recorded. Just like live music.
