The 4th generation Motion XT Series ushers in a new era of design and aesthetics for MartinLogan. The three modern, yet timeless, colorways can compliment any room while being a focal point if so desired. Motion XT evokes a unique look and sound, pairing high-performance woofers with exclusive Folded Motion Tweeter technology, a staple of MartinLogan products. The Motion Waveguide enhances the Controlled Dispersion of the Gen2 Folded Motion XT Tweeter to a high precision 45°(Vertical) by 90°(Horizontal) to accommodate a wide range of seating while reducing performance robbing floor and ceiling reflections within the environment.

  • The MartinLogan Sound: Regardless of the environment, MartinLogan speakers achieve high levels of articulation, detail, and realism. Utilizing exotic thin film technologies and Controlled Dispersion, MartinLogan provides unique and special listening experiences not commonly found in the industry.
  • Gen2 Folded Motion XT Tweeters: The Gen2 Folded Motion XT Tweeter is the flagship variant of MartinLogan’s signature FMT technology. Elevating the signature FMT to new heights with a 40% increase in surface area, providing higher levels of detail and effortless sound.
  • Motion Waveguide: Enhances the Controlled Dispersion of the Gen2 Folded Motion Tweeter, blanketing the listening area with incredible detail and precision. Avoids performance robbing room reflections and provides a more consistent sound across a wider seating area.
  • Controlled Dispersion: Room acoustics are vital, as everything in the listening room has an impact on speaker performance. MartinLogan minimizes these harmful effects by focusing the sound into the listening area, increasing flexibility, clarity, and placement options, regardless of the room’s design.
  • Kevlar-Nomex Midrange: Motion XT’s Kevlar-Nomex Midrange provides an ideal combination of lightweight, high strength, and anti-resonance for maximum fidelity. When paired with Motion XT’s Gen2 FMT XT, the vocal clarity, dialogue, and instrumental accuracy are unrivaled at any volume.
  • McCracken-Vojtko Crossovers: The culmination of combining extensive anechoic, in-room measurements, and multiple blind listening tests with the low distortion philosophy of MartinLogan’s signature Vojtko Crossover. Through this process each speaker was refined to achieve peak performance.
  • Enchanced Cabinet Bracing: If a speaker cabinet isn’t braced properly, it will vibrate or resonate, resulting in masked clarity and detail. This 4th generation Motion XT series features specially engineered bracing to maximize sound quality by minimizing unwanted vibrations and resonances.
  • Secure Lock Grilles: Stealth mounting tabs securely hold the grilles in place allowing the listener to customize the appearance of each speaker. Creating a unique look; leaving the grilles on, off, or even rotating them to change the grain of the fabric providing maximum aesthetic control.
  • Angeled Cabinet: When placed on a shelf or piece of furniture below ear level, the ‘flippable’ design of the center-channel enables the listener to aim the sound upwards towards the audience’s ears, improving dialogue clarity and immersion.
  • Anti-Lobing Design: Typical center channel designs result in lobing, which negatively alters the tonality of the source material. The 2.5-Way crossover design minimizes these harmful effects culminating in clearer dialogue and higher accuracy.
