MBL 101E MKII er en av de få produktene som virkelig har snudd hifi-bransjen på hodet. Som E-en i navnet tilsier så er dette femte generasjon av den legendariske høyttaleren som trosset konvensjonen og introduserte det nå legendariske Radialsthraler-prinsippet. Kort fortalt så stråler denne høyttaleren like mye energi, i alle frekvensområder, i 360 grader fra senter av høyttaleren. På denne måten emulerer 101E den ultimative høyttalerkonstruksjonen; en lydproduserende sfære. Resultatet er et helt enormt lydbilde som går langt utenfor rommets vegger og transporterer lytteren til et sted hvor kun musikken eksisterer og alt annet faller bort. Denne opplevelsen er nesten umulig å beskrive med ord, og må oppleves på førstehånd for at den skal synke ordentlig inn.
For å oppnå illusjonen av å være tilstede i musikken benytter MBL 101E MKII seg av et helt arsenal av egenutviklede og patenterte teknologier. Diskant- og det øvre mellomtoneelementet er laget av karbonfiberlameller og deles med sine mindre søsken, mens nedre mellomtone og bassgjengivelsen besørges av konstruksjoner som er unike for denne høyttaleren. Den unike aluminiumssfæren gjengir mesteparten av det viktige mellomtoneområdet og fremstår i seg selv som et stykke ingeniørkunst som like gjerne kunne vært stilt ut i et galleri. Det overkonstruerte basselementet befinner seg inni et ventilert trykk-kammer for maksimum effektivitet, kontroll og definisjon.
For de fleste som har hørt denne musikkformidleren er det kjærlighet ved første lytt/blikk, et forhold som varer livet ut for de som er så heldige å eie en av disse kunstverkene.
Tilgjengelig i standardutførelsene sølv/chrome, sort/chrome eller sort/gull. Rosewood, hvit pianolakk, og sort eller hvitt skinn er tilgjengelig mot pristillegg.

Informasjon fra produsent:
The technological tour de force that has continually redefined audio playback for over 30 years. MK II’s are the refined version of the earlier 101e Radialstrahler which garnered worldwide recognition as a truly great and classic loudspeaker. A speaker that is equally competent at reproducing the delicacy of a string quartet and the bone crushing transient dynamics of a rock performance.

New subwoofer cabinet design, Aquistic center more improved bottom end
New Crossover Technology
Retuned front to rear signal
New ring design surrounding the bass ports
Reduced speaker height, improved listening
New grill cover design
New 60mm front logo
Combining performance, looks and luxuryDesigned by MBL founder Wolfgang Meletzky, the 101e - MKII does not produce sound as a conventional forward-firing point source, but as genuine 360-degree-radiating omnidirectional spheres.
“Radialstrahl” means to “emit sound in a circular signal.” And the tweeter, midrange, and bass modules are each pulsating spheres, while a custom-designed subwoofer module is housed below.
Each hand-finished 101e - MKII is a thing to behold—a sculptural device that benefits from classic German attention to detail, and obsession with perfection.
Due to its revolutionary construction the Radialstrahler is able to produce three-dimensional sound in the living room at home that corresponds to that of a concert hall. In theory, this concept is simple, but brilliant: Like a musical instrument, the Radialstrahler radiates the sound waves in all directions – and not only in one direction like other speakers.
In practice, the concept is not as easy, of course. We had to develop and process the components and the materials that create such a totally new sound adventure.
The Radialstrahler concept includes a circular vertical arrangement of lamellas around an axis for each frequency range (tweeter, midrange driver and subwoofer). On the upper side, these lamellas are firmly glued in a thrust bearing and on the lower side, they are connected to a moving coil. If a pulse of music is now transmitted from the amplifier to the speaker, these slightly bent lamellas (therefore the Radialstrahler is also called “Biegeschwinger”) are oscillated – they radiate sound waves, in this case music. The result is a sound of unusual acoustic space and realism that is absolutely free from coloring, that is neutral and homogenous.
In order to meet the high demands, especially concerning realism, the numerous lamellas being arranged around the axis in the tweeter and midrange driver are made from one of the highest-quality materials: they are manually made from carbon fiber, pressed under a high pressure and hardened at an exact temperature. The assembly of the exactly controlled components requires absolute precision in fine mechanics.
The same applies for the lamellas of the woofer, which show the lowest sound distortion, when they are manufactured from an aluminum/magnesium alloy.
With other procedures that are not less complex we optimize the sound of all three systems in order to avoid distortions, vibrations and other undesired modifications of the sound. Thus, we attach importance to a highly effective system for cooling the moving coils, so that the coils only convert a very small part of the fed energy into heat that may have an influence on the sound. For such a high pulse power like that of the Radialstrahler (2200 W), this influence may be important. The mbl 101e -MKII still reproduces the most fast musical pulses like that of an orchestra neutrally and without any distortions, when many other speaker systems already have to give up.
In order to create a solid basis for the homogenous realism of the three Radialstrahler systems, we integrated a subwoofer into the mbl 101e - MKII that has also been carefully developed and that substantiates the precise play in the subwoofer range. Like the tweeter, the midrange driver and the woofer the subwoofer is submitted to the objective of the overall system as a whole: the natural sound. Accordingly, it is perfectly integrated in this 4-way speaker system which is unique – not only with regard to technology.
The sound of the Radialstrahler should be just perfect, but its appearance should not be less: Our acoustical showpiece should not only be just beautiful; it should be an esthetical pleasure, making the avant-garde design justified by its functioning a statement of the senses. And we have been confirmed from many sides that we got very close to our objective.
The mbl 101e -MKII simply lights up with natural elegance: It is modern and timeless in one, it differs in every respect from conventional speakers, but it is discreetly beautiful. It is a harmonic complement to every stylish living space without making a negative impression as musical furniture (especially as the Radialstrahler really sounds brilliantly everywhere). But whoever regards it deliberately – and which visitor would not like to do that? – will be bewitched by its appearance: even when looking at it, the manually selected materials make you feel like touching, feeling the brilliant workmanship.
But listening is believing. And it's safe to say that the new 101e- MK II provides a thrilling and unforgettable musical experience. Whether you're hearing it for the first or the hundredth time, the 101e- MKII is bound to raise goose bumps, to increase the pulse. With the 101 music doesn't seem to come from the speakers, but is simply there, in all its majesty and beauty.
