Months back it was uncovered that premium home and professional speaker manufacturer M&K Sound would be making a return under new ownership... after being closed for over a year. Today, it looks like M&K may be looking to make their return in the near future thanks to a tip by member FIG here in the TechLore Community.

mksoundsystem.com went online today, and appears to be M&K Sound's new website. Earlier in the day, the site wasn't there, but several search engine caches had started to reveal quite a bit about what was going on behind the scenes.

Most importantly, the new site shows which M&K products the new ownership is bringing back. The lines currently listed include:

• Most of the classic M&K 150 THX Series
  • S-150THX (main speaker)
  • MP-150 THX (on wall version of the S-150THX)
  • SS-150THX Tripole Surround Speaker
  • MX-250THX (Powerful dual 12" push-pull sub)
  • MX-350THX (Super powerful dual 12" push-pull sub)
• Most of the M&K 750 THX System
  • LCR-750THX (main speakers)
  • Center 750 THX (center channel)
  • Surr 55 T Tripole (surrounds..)
  • SB-1250THX Subwoofer (single 12" subwoofer)
• M&K Xenon Series
  • X-36 (Compact loudspeaker)
  • X-26 (Satellite loudspeaker)
  • X-24T (Tripole surround)
• M&K M Series
  • M-7 (compact loudspeaker)
  • M-5 (satellite loudspeaker)
  • M-4T (Tripole surround)
• M&K Alpha Series (formerly the K Series)
  • Alpha K-5 (satellite loudspeaker)
  • Alpha K-4T (Tripole surround
  • Alpha KX-10 (8" powered sub)
• Subwoofers
  • M/SB-8 (8" sub, not formerly a part of the Xenon line or M Series.)
  • M/SB-12 (12" sub, not formerly a part of the Xenon or M Series line. Looks like a replacement to the V-75/V-76).

Looks like the big players are there, and I was even surprised they're bringing back the M Series and the Xenon line. That's great news for audio enthusiasts since it provides a lot of variety and price points for M&K speakers.

I wasn't surprised to see that certain non-tripole surround speakers were eliminated, like the 550THX. Of course, in the Xenon, M-Series, and Alpha lines you could always use the front satellites as surrounds, but that kind of bypasses some of M&K's appeal.

The best news of all is the core of the 150THX and 750THX series is returning, but it's unfortunate the MX-150THX subwoofer isn't making a return. It also doesn't look like the S-150PTHX powered speakers will be returning, which isn't a shocker, but is a bummer.

It's unclear whether or not M&K's extremely generous 10-year warranty is returning, but anything is possible. The last piece of the puzzle is what happens for existing owners. Will M&K honor the warranty for legacy M&K owners? Only time will tell, but I sure do hope so. It would be unfortunate if prior owners were left out in the cold.

In any event, seeing proof of M&K's return with my own eyes makes this a great day for audio lovers and the entire industry.

Welcome back M&K.
