Oscar Trio, launch model for our new series, is a defining moment - the same Marten sound in a new build. Our chief designer Leif Olofsson crafted new technology to achieve the same performance that we’ve built our name on. Innovation drove the creation of the Oscar series; understanding challenge, taking risks and rethinking design are the ashes from which Oscar was born.
Control in the driver's seat:
Oscar Trio meets the demand for a reasonably-priced Marten speaker, without sacrifice to our renowned sound and quality. To achieve this we re-designed the build and created a bespoke driver.
The build offers exceptionally controlled and natural sound; true musicality that is the mark of a Marten speaker.
- Custom designed drivers
- True Marten sound
- 2-way
- Competitive price-point
"To keep the same Marten sound, I designed brand new drivers, allowing more control of the details"
Leif Olofsson | Chief Designer, Marten
Leif Olofsson introduces Oscar Trio:
With custom drivers and low distortion, Oscar Trio offers dynamic range, longer excursion and deep bass performance.
Advanced technology for natural sound:
To keep the same Marten sound we designed brand new drivers, allowing more control of the details.
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 cones 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 cones.
Streamlined with precision:
The exterior is an exercise in minimalist design – no unnecessary details; no embellishment. Marten cabinet design is a balance of strength and elegance: the perfect compliment to the sound.
The optional magnetic cover snaps on with a satisfying click, instantly streamlining the form without changing the sound.
Premium cables for purer sound:
We 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 our precision design and build. Jorma Design delivers exactly what a Marten speaker demands.
Material is everything:
Designed for Marten, the pucks and cones are made from high-tech engineering thermoplastic. This material has incredible stiffness, low friction, excellent dimensional stability and resonance control. The perfect balance of qualities needed for precision parts.
Our pucks and cones offer the isolation necessary for our speakers to perform at the peak of their capabilities.
Low order for high dynamics:
We prefer to use lower order crossovers, as the higher order crossovers tend to limit the dynamics and details. Our second order crossover has been creatively designed to make the best of the dynamic range.

"We built Oscar from the ground up - sometimes you have have to wipe the slate clean."

Give your apartment a promotion:
Oscar are great all-round speakers; with absolute ease of placement, they’ll sound great in smaller apartments as well as larger spaces. With sound so solid and tight, it fills a room and feels like a speaker with a much larger footprint.
