MarkAudio-SOTA’s small bookshelf speakers combine Italian style with British engineering design that follow the company’s “Hear Our Difference” audio philosophy.
The speakers utilize a single all-range symmetric driver to create a full range loudspeaker in an elegant and finely finished cabinet.
Our proprietary minimalist control network [MA1] intelligently controls the driver, delivering pure music to the listener while minimizing artificial processing. Laminated dual-core panels and space-age polymers provide enclosures of maximum strength and acoustic stability. The result is statement-level sound quality for the discerning listener.

 |
Built from the ground up MarkAudio-SOTA loudspeakers are built from the ground up, including the cabinets, crossovers and speaker drivers. Many manufacturers choose off-the-shelf components that aren’t always a perfect match to their system design target. |
 |
Symmetrical Sound Field MarkAudio-SOTA uses its own symmetrical technology. The single, wide dispersion, shallow-profile cone driver replaces conventional dual cone-woofer and dome-tweeter combinations. |
 |
Global Design – The best engineers and designers from around the world The global dream team at MarkAudio-SOTA recruited a global dream panel of experts to help tune the sound character, thus creating outstanding loudspeakers for discerning listeners. |
 |
All-Range Driver Approach MarkAudio-SOTA’s unique all-range approach offers the rich midrange that is typical of a wide-range single speaker design, while providing a full frequency range extending from 40Hz to 22kHz, and the high-impact dynamics of more typical multi-way speakers. |

Money Back Guarantee We are so confident that you’ll have no problem getting great sound from your MarkAudio-SOTA loudspeakers that we offer you 30 days to order the speakers, get them home, set them up and listen to them before final decision. |
