One of the benefits of in-ceiling speakers is how easily they disappear into a room. Unfortunately, the sound coming from the back of the speaker doesn’t disappear and can distract those in the rooms above the speakers. MartinLogan offers back boxes, or enclosures, for Motion CI In-ceiling speakers. For these situations where sound control is desired, these retrofittable back boxes are the perfect solution. They offer 20dB of noise reduction into adjacent areas and offer the perfect solution to achieve consistent performance where ceiling cavity sizes may vary throughout an installation. Please note that the volume of air in the retrofit enclosure is smaller than that of your ceiling, and bass extension will be reduced. If sound control is not necessary for your unique installation, we recommend not using the back box so the speaker can take advantage of the larger airspace in your ceiling cavity.
- Model Compatibility: The C6HTBXR is compatible only with MartinLogan's MC6-HT speaker.

Q: How much noise reduction do the back boxes provide?
A: These back boxes offer 20dB of noise reduction into adjacent areas.
Q: What is the purpose of the back boxes for these speakers?
A: The back boxes, or enclosures, are designed to reduce sound leakage into adjacent rooms.
Q: Is the back box compatible with all MartinLogan speakers?
A: No, this back box (model C6HTBXR) is specifically designed for the MartinLogan MC6-HT speaker.
Q: What is the weight of this back box?
A: The back box weighs 1.6 pounds.
Q: Are there any drawbacks to using the back boxes with these speakers?
A: Yes, using the back box will reduce bass extension due to the smaller volume of air inside the enclosure.
Q: Will this box work for the ElectroMotion IC ceiling speaker? If not, what is the correct box?
A: Thank you for your question and we hope all is well. That backbox will not work as there are no provisions on EMIC to attach that box. We, unfortunately, don't have a back box available for the EMIC. That is something that we've been working on to have available on all future models, but we apologize that it's not something we have for this model. Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with and we appreciate your support.
A: Hello. Thank you for your question, and we hope all is well. These back boxes are designed to attach to the back of the speaker and are a great option for sound control. Unfortunately, the sound coming from the back of the speaker doesn’t disappear and can distract those in the rooms above the speakers. For these situations where sound control is desired, these retrofittable back boxes are the perfect solution. They offer 20dB of noise reduction into adjacent areas. We do, however, offer ceiling mount brackets that are great options for new construction. The bracket that works with the MC6-HT is the C6HTBRK. Note these do come in a 2-pack. We hope this information helps, and please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with. We hope you have a wonderful day and thank you for your support of our company.

Fill your home with rich, detailed sound using these Sonance MAG8R in-ceiling speakers. Designed for whole house audio, multi room audio, and distributed audio system use, these 8" 2-way speakers combine exceptional acoustic performance with a low-profile appearance that disappears into the ceiling. A pivoting silk dome tweeter lets you direct high frequencies where you need them most, while the glass fiber woofer delivers clean, natural midrange and bass. These speakers are also compatible with Dolby Atmos and home theater setups when used as overhead channels, adding dimension and immersion to your entertainment setup. Ideal for retrofit or new construction projects, these speakers install quickly and securely with Sonance’s Roto-Lock mounting system and come with paintable magnetic grilles to match any room’s design.

The DI Series feature Definitive Technology's most advanced technologies such as BDSS drivers and pivoting Pure Aluminum dome tweeters for spectacular audio performance far beyond traditional flush-mount speakers. Definitive’s exclusive Balanced Dual Surround System (BDSS) driver technology permits these new flush mounts to deliver more bass output and dynamic range than larger drivers. For example, the 4-1/2" driver-based model has the bass and dynamics of a 5-1/4" traditional speaker, while the 5-1/4" performs like a traditional 6-1/2". Pure Aluminum dome tweeter featuring a specially shaped housing that avoids the diffraction distortions of traditional post mounted tweeters, and a sophisticated adjustable crossover network, the DI Series delivers the kind of lifelike sonic performance and broad even dispersion that you've come to expect from Definitive Technology.
