Marten Parker Duo
Compact Swedish monitor delivering full-bodied dynamics and refined detail in a beautifully crafted design.
The Marten Parker Duo is a 2-way stand-mount loudspeaker that brings the performance and precision of the Parker Series into a compact format. Designed and built in Sweden, the Marten Parker Duo delivers high-end sound with natural balance, wide imaging, and lifelike musical texture. It embodies the same engineering DNA found in Marten’s larger floor-standing models but in a space-efficient design ideal for reference listening rooms.
The Marten Parker Duo uses a 1-inch pure ceramic tweeter for silky treble extension and a 7.5-inch ceramic bass/midrange driver for rich, articulate midbass response. A 9-inch rear-mounted aluminium passive radiator enhances low-frequency performance without the turbulence of traditional ports. Together, these components create a sound that is powerful, refined, and immersive.
Built from 35 mm multi-layer M-board panels, the cabinet minimizes unwanted resonance and vibration, letting music flow naturally with exceptional clarity. With 88 dB sensitivity and 6 ohm nominal impedance, the Marten Parker Duo pairs well with high-quality solid-state or tube amplification that can deliver stable current.
Finished in Piano Walnut, Matte Walnut, Piano Black, or Piano White, the Marten Parker Duo combines Scandinavian craftsmanship with timeless elegance.
