Bringing high end performance to a wider audience, Motion Foundation offers incredible immersion for all your favorite content. Motion Foundation speakers feature the incredible performance of the Gen2 FMT S, bringing much of the same performance found in our/their larger siblings, in a more compact and affordable package. This high-performance tweeter is paired with a custom Folded Motion Waveguide offering consistent, smooth, and controlled sound across the listening space delivering incredible performance in every seat while also reducing some of the harmful effects of room acoustics. Rounding out the sound are specially designed aluminum woofers for both the midrange and bass drivers offering robust and detailed performance across the board. Motion Foundation models are available in 3 elegant finishes to compliment any decor: Black, Satin White, and Walnut.

  • 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 Obsidian Folded Motion Tweeter S: The Gen2 FMT S offers effortless performance, unmatched by conventional technologies. By folding thin film material, MartinLogan can pack more surface area into a small space providing incredible detail and clarity sure to bring your favorite content to life.
  • Folded Motion Waveguide: Enhances the Controlled Dispersion of the Gen2 Folded Motion Tweeter S, 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.

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.
  • Aluminium Midrange and Bass Drivers: Using trickle down technology from MartinLogan’s own Motion XT and Motion Series, the Motion Foundation Series uses Aluminum cone woofers to maximize clarity, detail, and output.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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!

Q: Do these speakers come with dust covers or any type of covering?

While not a traditional dust cover and different than the stretchy dust with the ML logo that comes with the Motion and XT ones, it can still be used as a dust cover. We hope this helps and please let us know if you have any other questions. Thank you for your support.

Q: Hello, I love your speakers. I recently got these for my front left and right. Can you please suggest me the speakers for center and surrounds that complement these. Would the Foundation C1 for Center and the FX for surround work great with these?

A: Hello. Thank you, Jeff, and we're so happy to hear it! We would recommend the C1 for your center and for surrounds, you do have a lot of options depending on how you would like them placed. Our speakers are designed to be mixed and matched so they can be paired with any of our offerings. Including our in-wall speakers, bookshelves, and on-wall offerings. The FXs would be a good choice if you're looking for an on-wall offering. If you can make the B1 work, that would also be another good option. We hope this 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 all your support.
