A: The minimum frequency response of the speaker is 34 hertz.
Q: What is the weight and dimensions of the speaker?
A: The product weighs 78 pounds. It is 59.8 inches high, 25.4 inches deep, and 10.4 inches wide.
Q: Does this speaker need its own separate AC power or just power from an amplifier?
A: Hello. Thank you for your question and for your interest in our products. The speaker needs to be powered with an AC adaptor and needs to be powered with an amp/AV receiver. The AC power supply is used to charge the electrostatic panel, but it still needs power from the amp/AV receiver. We hope this helps and please let us know if you have any other questions. Thank you for your support, and we hope you have a wonderful day.
Q: Are these speakers electrostatic
A: Thank you for your question, and we hope all is well. Yes, this model is an electrostatic speaker using advanced MicroPerf stator technology, which allows for almost twice the exposed electrostatic diaphragm surface as a traditional electrostatic panel of the same size. The Classic ESL 9 is also part of our Masterpiece series using our new ultra-rigid AirFrame Blade design, which enhances imaging, low-level sonic detail, accuracy, and speaker efficiency. We hope this helps and thank you for your interest in our products.

Make the most out of your home theater system with this Martin Logan ElectroMotion electrostatic loudspeaker. Made for stage acts or home use, this design is ultrathin and features compact Folded Motion thin film transducer technologies for pure sound. This Martin Logan ElectroMotion electrostatic loudspeaker is voice and timbre matched across the Martin Logan line.

Enjoy brilliant audio with this floor speaker that features an 8" high-excursion, doped fiber woofer cone for booming lows and a 34" Xstat Curvilinear Line Source (CLS) electrostatic transducer with 292 sq. in. of radiating surface for amazing sound.

The XTC8 features our largest and highest performing FMT XT and a woven Kevlar woofer. These features make a noticeable improvement to the sound but also help to reduce unwanted room acoustic artifacts. With a more controlled 80° x 30° dispersion, the FMT XT is a powerful tool that delivers unheard levels of realism from a CI speaker in even the most acoustically challenging rooms. The XTC8 is a great choice for a high performance whole house music system, or for premium home theater. Its unique combination of high-performance drivers and controlled dispersion allows you to control where sound is placed in a room and provides an even better experience. The MartinLogan Motion XT CI series takes performance to the next level over Motion CI. The Folded Motion XT tweeter gives each model in the Motion XT series even more of the clarity, output, and efficiency that the standard size FMT is famous for. With Motion XT, we wanted to increase all aspects of performance over the Motion series, so we didn’t just stop at the tweeter. All Motion XT models feature woven Kevlar woofers for increased rigidity and lightness which translates into better sound. In addition to the larger tweeter, and lighter, stronger woofers, MartinLogan’s design and engineering team has fitted the Motion XT series with a more substantial chassis to strengthen the speaker and provide a more accurate sound, like a better cabinet on a traditional speaker. With Motion XT CI, the difference is in the details. No matter which Motion XT CI speaker you choose for your room, rest assured they are designed to provide a consistently high level of performance and can easily be used with other MartinLogan speakers to make creating the perfect system for your unique listening space that much easier.
