Differential Dispersion

The Martin Audio Differential Dispersion™ Series delivers precision-engineered audio coverage for venues where even, intelligible sound is essential.

Why Choose the Differential Dispersion Series? 

In spaces where audience zones vary dramatically—from front rows to balcony seats—the Differential Dispersion Series offers remarkable audio consistency. Unlike traditional speakers that project unevenly or require complex EQ correction, these enclosures provide rectangular sound fields that maintain clarity across short and long throws. Whether you're designing a multi-tier theatre or solving tricky corner coverage, this series ensures full-range intelligibility with less hardware and tuning effort.
