The MB1 B is a two-way floorstanding speaker. Our main goal was to create a small speaker that does what it does really well. The reflex port is located at the front and it uses special bass reflex ports that reduce port noise to an extremely low level. While the speaker is small and stylish, the music performance is lively, bright and bold, with a bass response that belies its compact size. The speaker is equipped with a front port so that it can be placed close to the back wall.
The MB series features the same great, solid, two-way speaker terminals. The feet are machined from aircraft-grade aluminum and can be adjusted to level the speaker. For added rigidity, we've added a carbon plate to the top panel; this, combined with extensive internal bracing, makes the cabinet inert and silent.
For the MB-1 we have a dedicated stand with the MB-series matching adjustable aluminum feet for the MB-series. The MB-1 also fits the X-1 stand.

HiFi Choice review:
"If you're looking for rather superior speakers for use in a small or medium-sized room, and can afford both the speaker/stands package, at around £1,800 all-in and the kind of amplifier you'll need to hear them at their best, this is a highly competitive design. By combining room friendliness – that front-venting port means that you can use them close to a rear wall – stylish looks and a very persuasive sound seemingly beyond its modest dimensions, Scansonic has come up with loudspeaker well worthy of a serious audition”
Sound & Picture review:
"Have I heard better speakers than the Scansonic MB-1 at this price? No. Would I like a pair of MB-1? Yes. This is something you definitely need to check out if you're in search of some really good standmount speakers where the price isn't sky-high. You get a soundstage here that you instinctively like, and it just feels sooo right all the way through. Big applause for the MB-1!"
I-Fidelity review:
The ScansonicHD MB1 B grows sonically far beyond its discreet cabinet dimensions. This is certainly not HiFi, this is High End, intended for demanding listeners. Thanks to its ribbon, it delivers a fascinating resolution of the sound events with wonderful three-dimensionality. The interplay with the bass-midrange speaker is absolutely homogeneous. Added to this are its elegant design and flawless craftsmanship. Equipped with these formidable tools, the Danish manufacturer ScansonicHD can confidently face the market.
