Marten Parker Trio Floorstanding Speaker (Demo available)
We have just received a demo pair of Parker Trio's. If you would like to hear how exceptionally good these Marten floorstanders truly are then please give me (Terry) a call to arrange a private listening session on 0418 691 294.

Parker Trio is a floor standing loudspeaker of the Parker series. The series sits squarely in the middle of Martens product range - a position which has long been held by the Heritage series. Parker elevates Marten loudspeakers in this class to a whole new level.
With custom designed technology and perfectly balanced build techniques, Parker Trio 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.
- 2.5-way floor-standing
- Brand new custom designed drivers
- 2x bass/midrange drivers
- Multi-diverse crossover technique
- High sensitivity: 91 dB
Cabinets
The cabinet features sleek, tapering sides created from M-board, a multi-layered material offering extreme resonance reduction. Parker Trio is so resonance-free, it completely disappears within the soundstage. The newly designed cabinet balances visual appeal with low-impact on sound.
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 allows a more holistic way of building a system, making Parker Trio a super-refined Marten speaker.
Diamond Edition Upgrade
Parker Trio can be upgraded to Diamond edition, featuring a Diamond tweeter, more advanced crossover components, improved terminals and Jorma Statement internal cables. All models in the Parker series can be elevated to the ultimate in premium loudspeakers.
Bass and Mid-Range
Designed for the system, two 7.5” bass/midrange ceramic drivers offer a large surface area resulting in an open, precise soundstage and great dynamics, while two passive radiators give better control of the lower frequencies. A speaker of this class demands the ultimate in bass response.
Crossover
A multi-diverse crossover technique was developed through hours of listening and testing, plus rigorous simulation, calculation and measurement. Marten really put the work in with this crossover, using the best components and precisely tuning it to work with the system.
Internal Wiring
Marten 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.
Cables are integral components, so they must work harmoniously with the speaker's precision design and build. Jorma Design delivers exactly what a Marten speaker demands.
Feet
The reduction of resonance is important to the design of speakers – it can mean the difference between a good speaker and a great speaker. With IsoAcoustics, Marten 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
- Resists lateral movement and oscillations
- Reduces internal reflections
- Suitable for carpet
