Overview

Matinee is a highly evolved expression of the same ideas and engineering that spawned the Stage™ and Motif™ speakers. A state-of-the-art MicroPerf electrostatic panel, dual paper-cone woofers, and highly sophisticated Vojtko™ crossover deliver unrivaled precision and center-channel intelligibility.

Wall-mount brackets and an optional pivoting stand with 35 degrees of motion (sold seperately) allow Matinee to work as either a center or surround speaker, mounted on- or off-wall, horizontally or vertically. Only a handful of speakers (our own floorstanding electrostats) match or outperform the Matinee in any of these applications, and none outpace it in all of them.
