Recenzja Marten Coltrane Supreme 2 w Hi-Fi+
This might sound strange, but one of the biggest challenges facing any speaker system built on this scale is the ability to sound small when the music demands it. It was a test the Coltrane Supreme 2 passed with effortless, almost contemptuous ease. Examples were legion, but perhaps the most remarkable was ‘Luka’, the opening track from Volume 2, People & Places from the Suzanne Vega Close Up series of LPs [Amanuensis, Music On Vinyl]. The simple one-take voice and guitar recording has an almost ghostly sense of shape, size, and presence. The image is perfectly proportioned, between and behind the plane of the speakers – not close enough to touch but with enough body to be quite disturbing if you are not expecting it. The voice is incredibly natural, in terms of scale and inflection, the way Vega’s mouth moves relative to the microphone, the small, incidental noises that mark the movements of her mouth and tongue. The speakers track level changes without any lag or compression. The guitar is is, if anything, even more impressive, with the Supreme 2 conveying the separation of strings and body, the strings’ instant attack, while presenting the shape of notes in an utterly convincing way. But what binds the whole thing together is the human element, the subtle shifts of voice and instrument, the hesitation in an awkward chord shift, the sound of fingers on frets. The sense of pain and isolation in the song is almost palpable: the sense of the person performing it goes a whole stage further than that.
In part this transparency, especially at low frequencies is the product of the Coltrane Supreme 2’s well-behaved cabinets, but again I can’t help feeling that the drivers are playing their part. Bass of this quality is not just about weight and rise time. It’s also about the shape and the tail of the note, the placement of each note and the pace of the bass line – and all of those things depend not on how quickly the drivers start, but how quickly they stop. The Marten’s lack of overhang strips away that baggage, leaving the speaker light on its feet and able to respond to the signal, despite its bandwidth.
What we have here is a speaker that can do big and small, loud and quiet, can transition between those extremes and do it without strain or even apparent effort. Dynamic range is genuinely uninhibited, response quick enough to pass unnoticed, and distortion – the audible addition of colour, subtraction, or rearranging of information – is vanishingly low. In common with other diamond drivers, the units used here are devoid of audible breakup, harshness, or edge. What is perhaps more impressive is that, used across relatively narrow bandwidths, these drivers also manage to match the energy levels of other high-frequency technologies. Marten has succeeded in producing a speaker that is astonishingly natural and almost perfectly balanced across its considerable bandwidth.
The Coltrane Supreme 2 also projects the most natural stereo stage we’ve heard to date. Not in the laser etched, carved from solid, reach out and touch imagery overt manner of many more initially impressive designs – but definitely the most natural and naturally convincing.
The real beauty of the big Martens is that they are one of the least overtly impressive or showy loudspeaker systems available today. Where so many big speakers scream, “Look at ME, listen to ME!” the Coltrane Supreme 2’s seem to spend all their time doing their level best to disappear. Their refined appearance is matched by their sound – they don’t project that solid, slab-like bass so beloved of audiophiles, so prevalent in demonstrations, and so rarely heard in reality.
