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.

Combining performance, looks and luxury, 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.” 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: Like a musical instrument, the Radialstrahler radiates the sound waves in all directions – not only in one direction like conventional speakers, effectively energizing your entire room with sound.

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 soundadventure.

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. specially 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.
