When Kevin Malmgren, the former VP of engineering at Von Schweikert and his business partner set out to design these speakers they approached it with a balanced, "No holds barred", yet at the same time producing a speaker with maximum performance for the dollar.  After 7 years of development, they exceeded their expectations with an ultra high performance speakers at the $50,000 price point.  Built to produce concert level sound and dynamics, while doing so with finesse and detail at every frequency audible to humans, the MM2's are stunning.  Time after time found the MM's winning "Best of show" and grabbing the attention of reviewers and audiophiles alike.  

The MM2's are more than just beautiful cabinetry and design.  Each component works to produce an extremely flat frequency response while being tightly time coincident.  The constant voltage crossover network assists in widening the off axis performance giving the listener a large sweet-spot with near perfect accuracy. There is a ton of experience and real world knowledge in their design.  (You can read more about the unique design principles of the MM's in a nice ultra hi end review.)

While they are showstoppers and grab your attention, the real question is, 'How to they sound'?  Because they can reach deep in the single Hz frequencies, they easily and cleanly reproduce frequencies at or above 20Hz (the lowest human hearing range).  This gives them the ability to maintain very high detail and resolution into the lowest bass notes.   Coupled with state-of-the-art drivers and an advanced cross-over network the mids are life-like and smooth with an ultra-wide dispersion tweeter carrying the music into convincing and emotional territory.

Questions for the seller
Tell me the cable configuration?
On the main or upper module there is what looks like a single knob or screw down. This accepts your speaker cable positive and negative spade connectors. Then a jumper connects this module to the lower sub module. This jumper is included. This feeds the powered sub a lower wattage signal which is then amplified using its internal amps. The advantage of this is the full range signal is properly distributed between the modules and the sub crossover and timing is really in sync with the other drivers providing a much more believable experience.
Is it US voltage?
The sub-woofer amps are actually auto switching and handle 120-240V 50/60hz so can be used worldwide without modification.
