The 4th generation Motion 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 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 Tweeter to a generous 90°(Vertical) by 90°(Horizontal) to accommodate a wide range of seating and speaker placement options, while avoiding clarity destroying sound 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 Tweeters: The state-of-the-art thin-film Gen2 FMT offers effortless performance, unmatched by conventional technologies. Utilizing a lightweight material with more surface area, the FMT brings the audience’s favorite content to life with extreme levels of detail and accuracy.
  • 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.
  • Woven Fiberglass Midrange: The lightweight and strong Woven Fiberglass midrange in the Motion series is perfectly suited for keeping pace with Motion’s Gen2 FMT, providing crystal clear dialogue and vocals, as well as lifelike instrumentals.
  • 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 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.
  • Single Cannon Bass Ports: Rear ported speaker designs need ‘room to breathe,’ which can conflict with a room's layout or decor as they require ample spacing from a wall or cabinet. The bottom mount port provides deeper, cleaner, and more powerful bass across a wider range of placement options.
  • Floor-Bounce Compensation: Bringing studio reference sound to reality with precision woofer placement and crossover tuning, MartinLogan engineers have designed their tower models to produce a more natural and full sound by taking advantage of a constant found in all listening rooms; the floor!
  • F.A.S.T. Foot: Toolless height adjustability utilizing rubber feet or spikes allows the user to perfectly level the speaker for maximum stability on any floor. Built-in anti-vibration properties lower distortion by reducing ‘judders’ between the speaker and the floor, leaving nothing but pure sound.

Q: What is the weight of the speaker?

A: The product weight is 60 pounds.

Q: What is the size of the midrange driver?

A: The midrange size is 5.5 inches.

Q: What is the minimum frequency response of the speaker?

A: The minimum frequency response of the speaker is 35 hertz.

Q: I need attractive, high quality speakers for a CD player, record player, and monitor that streams. I listen to opera and classical music via streaming, so quality is important. Are there speakers that can work for all three?

A: Hello. Thank you for your comment and we hope all is well. Our speakers are designed to work well with all sources. Note the speakers aren't powered so they need an A/V receiver or amp/dac to power the speakers. If you have a dealer near you, we recommend that you demo the speakers. We think you'll enjoy your experience. Please let us know if you have any other questions and we appreciate your support.

    A Great Speaker but consider the XT B100 aswell

    These speakers are great as standalone speakers. Their bass digs decently deep with great resolve on the tweeter. The soundstage is good with very good separation of instruments and vocals. Present a great a center image. I will say if you have good subs already at your disposal, opt for the XT B100 bookshelves from Martin Logan’s. Doing a direct AB between these two, it was very apparent how the motion XT tweeter shines over the motion tweeter in these. The B100s have a very transparent sound, much better depth and a greater sense of scale surprisingly. They completely disappear and the sounds seems like it’s coming from a large canvas. A true marvel at their price. Just remember, they do not have solid bass and should be used with a sub, preferably crossing over at 80-100hz depending on your room and subs. Used a denon x4800h bi-amped for both speakers. If you have the space, B100 with good subs 100%!

    Wonderful speakers

    These speakers have so much depth in the sound stage. Vocals come through clean and very highly believable without distortion on most of my CD collection and even poorly recorded CDs sound better with these speakers. The midrange is measured very well and the bass is tight and you can feel it when they are cranked up. I can listen to the F20s all day and not notice any ear fatigue. As far as looks, the piano black is a beautiful mirror finish and the black stainless outriggers not only look cool but are so easy to adjust with a twist if the hand...no tools required. Also, they are bottom ported so if you are limited on space these can be placed closer to the wall than most other tower speakers (i keep mine about 16" from the wall) I do highly recommend these and i think they are worth every penny. I cannot think of anything I dislike so all i can say is go for it if your considering these tower speakers
