The Future of Audio: Integrated Systems?
"In the end, bass on this system was deep, controlled, and less distracting than on many systems. I had a greater sense than is usual that bass was just part of the music, not something generated by an audio system."

Stereophile 2019 Product of the Year Editor's Choice Award
"
When you're a fan of a prodigious, but clean and accurate, bottom end, choosing a value-packed powered sub with built-in room correction is a no-brainer. At $800 each, you can start with one, and when your budget allows, add another. Your music will thank you!
Awarded in response the Larry Greenhill's January 2019 review.

When You Become Attached- MartinLogan Motion 4i Speakers and Dynamo 800X Subwoofer
"I was already a fan of MartinLogan products, loving their speakers such as the $80,000 Neolith, but wasn’t sure how much the quality trickled down into the lower-priced products. Consider me impressed. I have not seen many products in these price ranges that can compete, and certainly none that look as good."

MartinLogan Dynamo 800X Powered Subwoofer
"MartinLogan’s Dynamo 800X is the first subwoofer I’ve reviewed that combines digital control, signal connection, and room correction—all three wirelessly—in a small, powerful package. I heard no difference between the wireless and wired connections, and once I’d found good positions for the Dynamos, set their output level correctly, and identified their optimal crossover frequencies, their sound seamlessly blended with that of my Quad electrostatics, deepening the ESL-989s’ soundstages and deep-bass extension and expanding their dynamic range, and enhancing their three-dimensionality, all at a price far below that of larger subwoofers I’ve reviewed."

MartinLogan Dynamo 800X Subwoofer Review
"The MartinLogan Dynamo 800X is ideal to pair with some bookshelf speakers and complete a music system. With integrated Anthem Room Correction, you get a flat bass response in your room without much work, and the transition from the sub to the speakers is virtually invisible. If you need deeper bass, MartinLogan offers the dynamo in larger sizes as well."

MartinLogan Dynamo 800X Subwoofer Review
"Paired up with some nice speakers like the MartinLogan Motion 4i bookshelf/satellites I used in this system this sub shows how far technology—especially amplification and DSP—has come in terms of making such a small yet capable performer possible. Within the specific parameters where someone would find a compact subwoofer like this appealing, thanks to its features and overall performance, the MartinLogan Dynamo 800X is a Top Choice for 2018."
