Where Craftsmanship Meets Performance: The Materiality of Marantz Horizon

In the world of premium audio, few can capture the balance of luxury and high performance quite like Marantz. The Marantz Horizon and Marantz Grand Horizon wireless speakers don’t just sound incredible—they are design masterpieces. At the heart of their appeal is an obsession with materials: not only how they sound, but how they feel and how they shape the user experience.

Radiance 360° Seamless Fabric: Feel and Hear the Difference

One of the standout elements of the Horizon line is the Marantz Radiance 360° seamless fabric—a meticulously crafted acoustic textile that wraps around the speaker like a second skin and shimmers in the light thanks to gold Lurex. This fabric isn’t just aesthetic; it’s integral to performance. It allows sound to diffuse evenly in all directions while preserving the warmth and clarity Marantz is known for. Touch it, and you’ll feel a smooth, almost velvety texture, underscoring its premium nature. Listen to it, and you’ll hear depth and dimension that only thoughtful material choices can deliver.

Marble Base: Uniquely Sculpted Sound

Perhaps the most distinctive material in the Horizon and Grand Horizon is marble, used as the base of each speaker. Acoustically, the density of marble offers exceptional resonance control, reducing unwanted vibrations and enhancing bass clarity. Visually and tactilely, it’s stunning. Each piece of marble is naturally unique, giving every Horizon or Grand Horizon speaker a singular identity. It’s a subtle nod to the art world, marrying sculpture with sound.

Metal, Walnut, and Brass: Classic Craftsmanship

Around the back, a metal heat sink not only ensures thermal efficiency but adds a sculptural, industrial edge to the silhouette—reminding you that this is, at its core, a high-performance system. Meanwhile, the optional tripod stand, available for Horizon only, combines walnut wood and brass, evoking classic furniture design. The warm wood grain complements the marble’s subtle finish, and the brass adds a soft gleam. The result is a speaker that looks as at home in a design gallery as it does in a listening room.

Luxury That Speaks—and Sounds—for Itself

Every detail in the Horizon and Grand Horizon speaks to Marantz’s relentless pursuit of elegance through engineering. These speakers are beautiful to look at, luxurious to touch, and breathtaking to hear. From the seamless fabric and marble foundation to the meticulously finished metals and wood, these speakers transcend function, becoming part of your lifestyle, your aesthetic, and your home.
