Q: Can I mount these speakers on the wall?
A: Yes, these speakers are bookshelf or wall-mountable for optimal placement.
Q: Does this MartinLogan speaker system have a bass reflex enclosure?
A: Yes, it has a bass reflex enclosure with a rear-firing port that promotes optimal performance.
Q: How much peak power can this speaker handle?
A: This speaker has a peak power handling of 75W, which helps ensure a rich and dynamic sound.
Q: What is the frequency response for this MartinLogan speaker?
A: The frequency response is 70Hz - 23kHz, ensuring a wide range of accurately reproduced sound.
Q: Is there anyway to order new mounting brackets for these?
A: Support at Martin Logan's website.
Q: Could this speaker be used with a receiver and turntable?
A: Yes, that's how I use mine. It's a fantastic entry-level "audiophile" speaker, but keep in mind the bass is limited because it's so small. I use a subwoofer as well.
Q: what floor stands can I use?
A: The SANS Adjustable Speaker Stands work well with these. The speaker will basically just sit on top of the stand and be held in place with a sticking rubber pad but if you are not in a high traffic area they are fine. If you bump into them the speaker could fall off. If you can attach directly to wall it is better - just run the speaker wire behind the floor molding or behind the drywall if you can.

I use these speakers as my surround and heights for my theater. Love the style of them and they do sound great. They lack base, but for surrounds/heights its not too important. They have enough to get the job done thats for sure. I plan on upgrading them soon though. I'm going to keep them as heights but not as surrounds. For Height/Atmos, theyre perfect!

These compact satalite speakers are really just that good fir the price. The folded motion tweeter gives you a crisp and airy sound with tons of detail. The sound stage is very large for this size of a speaker the ported mid bass has great low end that match some of the larger speakers in the martin logan range. If you do consider to purchase these get a subwoofer to help with the lower frequencies. These are a must have for anyone getting into speakers I cant give them any higher praise than that.

Was able to find a steal of a deal on an open box pair. They're being used as side surrounds in a ML 5.2.4 configuration. They sound great to my ears. Blend well with my Motion 40 and 50. Install was easy. The bracket they come with doesn't allow you to angle the speaker. Works well in my application still. Seem easy to drive with an older Marantz 6013. Solid build and clean sound as surrounds or fill.
