If you desire even more output and bass response than the MC6, the 8” MC8 is the obvious choice. Featuring the same Folded Motion Tweeter and woven fiberglass woofer as the rest of the Motion CI models, the MC8 is all about “more.” MC8 can handle more power, produce more output, and deliver more bass when the fullest performance is desired. An optional retrofittable back enclosure is available for applications where sound control is needed. All MartinLogan Motion CI Series speakers feature our signature Folded Motion Tweeter or FMT. This innovative piece of audio technology provides incredible detail, precise clarity, clean output and high efficiency in a small but mighty package. Pairing this tweeter with lightweight woven fiberglass woofers means that Motion CI delivers a clean and balanced sound that is perfectly suited for any application. Whether you listen to music, movies or a little bit of everything, Motion CI gives you a true high-end audio experience at an affordable price. To round out the assortment, pre-construction brackets are available for all models, and all in-ceiling models have square grilles and retrofittable back enclosures available separately.
- The MartinLogan Sound: Regardless of the environment, our speakers sound better, more articulate, detailed, and realistic. With Controlled Dispersion and one of the clearest tweeters in the industry, our architectural models can compete with and often exceed the performance of traditional speakers.
- Controlled Dispersion: Room acoustics are extremely important. Everything in the listening room has an impact on the sound of your speakers, so we try to minimize the harmful effects by focusing the sound directly on your ears. This increases clarity, and detail regardless of the rooms design.
- Performance Meets Aesthetics: While there are many choices of CI speakers out there, MartinLogan stands out for bringing unique, high-performance technologies together in a package that perfectly blends discrete sound with noticeable quality. Performance and Aesthetics, both without compromise.
- Folded Motion Tweeter: This miracle of audio engineering gives high efficiency and low distortion a new benchmark. Our signature Folded Motion Tweeter uses an extremely lightweight diaphragm, in a space saving “folded” design, to deliver incredible detail, speed, and accuracy in a small space.
- Fiberglass Woofers: All Motion CI speakers feature lightweight woven fiberglass cones specifically engineered for their application to blend seamlessly with the lightning speed of our signature Folded Motion Tweeter.

By far the most popular size for in-ceiling speakers, the MC6 features a 6.5” woofer with higher power handling, greater output capability, and improved bass response over the smaller MC4.

Martin Logan
These speakers are crisp and clear but I feel lack a little bit in the bass . However they are new and only have about 5 hours of listening on them . Break in on these speakers is 72 hours from Martin Logan , so we will see how they sound at they time . My overall rating is good and hope they get a little better with some more time on them .

Buy these!
These sound better than the 8" KEF speakers I compared them to. Amazing sound. I bought them as surround speakers and they sound more full than the ML bookshelfs I have in the front.
