2022_SP_Awards

Product of the year 2022

We are pleased to announce that the American magazine Stereophile has honored the MBL 120 Radialstrahler loudspeaker as a Finalist in the 2022 Loudspeaker of the Year category, and also honored the MBL 120 with a 2022 Editor’s Choice Award from Julie Mullins:

“The 120s have a perennial place in my room—and in my heart. Whatever music I send their way, they radiate lifeblood and energy, substance and detail. The speakers consistently strike a balance between precise mechanical realism and believable human warmth. Smooth treble and well-rounded midrange come from handmade omnidirectional drivers that cohere with a pair of push-push, side-firing woofers. Designer Jürgen Reis’s “tricks” extend the ported cabinet’s bass; I seldom miss a subwoofer. The 120s interact with the room, filling it with freed-up, 3D musical energy. Many nights of “just one more track” and the occasional goosebumps can’t be ignored.

Jürgen Reis – 40th Anniversary

Dear Jürgen Reis!

It was 40 years ago that you joined the small burgeoning Berlin-based audio company of MBL. Since 1982, you have worked at MBL endeavouring to conceive, develop, and perfect a multitude of innovative, at times even revolutionary, audio speakers and electronics. Four decades during which you enriched and shaped the world of music reproduction. And all the while, whenever you brought out a new product, it was only good enough for you if the listener literally became emotionally transported by the music. No measurement curve, no matter how perfect, could ever leave you satisfied if the music did not touch the listener’s soul.

This unconditional search for the true meaning of music reproduction has led to the world-renowned success that MBL loudspeakers and electronics have today. Your many accomplishments have also been an inspiration to all of us that work at the company. It is not surprising that in the audio industry your name has long been synonymous with competence, consistency, and a deep passion for music.

I share my sincere thanks and gratitude on your 40th anniversary at MBL on not only a job remarkably well done, but also for the tremendous teamwork you have shown all these years. Today, thousands of customers all over the world listen to their favorite music on an audio system created by you. For some, it allows for valuable time away from the hectic pace of everyday life. For others, it is even the center of their lives. But music is always an enrichment – and this is especially true when the world is going through challenging times.

We look forward to the many great achievements still to come in our future together.

Christian Hermeling
CEO MBL Akustikgeräte, Berlin

Stereophile “MBL 120 Radialstrahler″

The  US-American magazine Stereophile reviewed the Radialstrahler Loudspeaker 120:

Julie Mullins, Stereophile
“Wallflowers they ain’t: Immersive and involving, these speakers are built for fun. Their sound, though always substantial, tends to stay detailed without getting thick or muddy…Their energy was palpable, visceral, like live music, adding to the sense of immersion. It gave more muscle to rock ’n’ roll. The soundwaves’ energy was like a gentle force field. Or not so gentle…The MBL 120s can deliver sound with involving intensity even on quiet, subtle material…If the MBL 120 were a book, it would be one that was hard to put down: I kept listening when I should have been going to bed—or finishing this review. The MBL 120s can be addictive. I’m not here to be a bad influence, but if you’re not careful, you might need to call your nearest dealer.”

John Atkinson, Technical Editor
“The MBL 120’s measured performance confirms that this is a true omnidirectional design.”

The Absolute Sound “MBL 126 – Small Footprint, Big Statement”

Neil Gader, editor of the U.S. magazine The Absolute Sound reviews the Radialstrahler 126 in current issue.

“Sonically, you enter a whole new world when you light up the MBL 126—or any Radialstrahler, for that matter…At trade shows I’ve watched enthusiasts enter MBL exhibits with a hushed solemnity and walk away glowing, as if they’d undergone a spiritual experience…no one should mistake its whimsical, droid-like appearance for anything other than an audiophile loudspeaker of the most serious sonic intentions and pedigree…in terms of imaging, as cliché as this sounds, 126 flat out disappears from the room, kind of like, well, poof…Though MBL’s 126 is designed for the parlor rather than the palace, it’s as good as anything this esteemed company has ever made. In spite of its humble size, it is truly a statement loudspeaker of the first order. If you consider yourself a thoughtful audiophile and are preparing to take the plunge into this price range, don’t even consider making a move until you’ve auditioned the MBL 126. It is must listening.”

Stereophile “Preamplifier N11″

The US-American magazine Stereophile extensively tested the preamplifier N11 from the NOBLE Line:

Jason Serinus, Reviewer:
“While I’m not convinced that there’s a bright side to everything, the N11 shone a light during the dark days of the pandemic and delivered week upon week of listening pleasure…The N11 could very well be a performance you never want to end. It’s a looker, for sure, one whose presence in my system I already miss.”

John Atkinson, Technical Editor
“…Its performance on the test bench reveals the widest-bandwidth, widest-dynamic-range, lowest-noise, lowest-distortion preamplifier I have encountered.”

2018 HIGH END – Press Coverage

The year’s Munich High End show was filled with a lot of great moments, beginning with our incredible annual jazz-dinner concert which welcomes a record number of invited guests, some wonderful live performances at our booth thanks to Concert Köln, plenty of business meetings with our much appreciated distributors and dealers, and, most of all, some amazing demos on each of our two systems, the 101E with the Noble Line and the Reference line powering the 101 X-tremes.

Jonathan Valin from The Absolute Sound wrote “MBL X-Tremes (€200k), driven by MBL 9011 amps and 6010 D preamplifier and sourced by an MBL DAC (only), were, as usual, simply superb—very airy and spacious and alive, without a trace of box sound and, despite the four chassis and omnidirectional radiation-pattern of the drivers, possessed of excellent imaging.”

Stereophile “Recommended Components” A+ Rating

“The best performance with High Resolution data files.”

The new Noble Line N31 CD-DAC has received a rare A+ rating in the Stereophile April, 2018 issue.

John Atkinson concluded that digital sound doesn’t get any better than what he heard from the N31. Furthermore he noted that the MBL offered 21 bits of resolution—the current state of the art of digital audio. This prompted John Atkinson the measurer to agree with John Atkinson the listener: “Digital audio engineering doesn’t get any better.”

Stereophile “MBL´s Noble N31”

John Atkinson, editor of the U.S. magazine Stereophile reviews the Noble Line CD-DAC N31:

“…with older digital recordings (“Southern Cross,” from Crosby, Stills & Nash’s CSN (4 CDs, 16/44.1; 320kbps AAC le, Atlantic 82319-2), the N31 sounded simply magnificent….as before,
the N31 allowed sonic shortcomings to step to one side, letting the rock’n’roll magic flow forth. And again, the N31’s presentation of detail was superb”

“As I say in the “Measurements” sidebar, digital audio engineering doesn’t get any better—nor, I feel, does digital sound quality. At $15,400 it may be expensive, but MBL’s Noble Line N31 is beyond reproach.”
