Advantages of
Satellite Speakers
Because M&K Satellites do not have to reproduce deep bass (thanks
to the M&K powered subwoofer), those Satellites are optimized to
reproduce midrange and highs without size compromises. Each
cabinet's front baffle is about the minimum size that will accommo-
date its drivers, with many cabinet optimized in shape (trapezoidal or
with multiple non-parallel walls) which eliminate midbass and midrange
problems found in virtually all other speakers.
Very few loudspeakers are capable of reproducing fundamental fre-
quencies below 50 Hz. This is made worse when the speakers are
placed in a room because they are usually set up for the best imaging.
The location with the best imaging is virtually always different from
the one that gives the deepest and smoothest bass response. That
means that a speaker in that location will not meet its bass specifica-
tions, either for low frequency extension or for flatness of response.
With M&K Satellite speakers, no compromise is necessary, as the
Satellites can be located for optimum imaging, with the Subwoofer
located for optimum bass.

Our strengths are in our quality of construction and appearance, our
long-term reliability, and our sound quality. M&K speakers are engi-
neered for excellent transient performance, which we have always
considered essential for the accurate reproduction of music. Our su-
periority in this area becomes even more apparent in home theater,
where the overly polite and compressed sound of many speakers will
turn an exciting soundtrack dull.
M&K Satellite speakers produce a very natural, lifelike three-dimen-
sional sound, thanks to their compact cabinet sizes and the transient
accuracy of their crossovers. In addition to producing a sometimes
startlingly real sound with good recordings, this means excellent sound-
staging and
accurate (unexaggerated) depth.
