Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the sound quality and compact size of the Motion 4" 75-Watt Passive 2-Way Bookshelf Speaker. Many appreciate the ease of wall mounting and the ability to achieve a good volume level. However, some customers note that the speakers may lack sufficient bass for certain music genres. A subwoofer is recommended by some to enhance the low-frequency response.

    Great sounds good to add to any stereo or surround sound system! Terrific tweeter and okay bass. You definitely need a subwoofer to make it terrific.

    I purchased these about a year ago for my front left and right speakers and haven’t stopped smiling yet. They are driven by a Marantz SR6014 receiver and paired with a nice Polk Sub since they are not made to pound out the lower frequencies. . Once the Marantz Audessey room calibration checked out the room and the speakers, the result is simply astounding. Don’t expect these to be a full range speaker, but when you drive them correctly, they are simply beautiful speakers. I have had them setup in 2 completely different room environments and they are simply fantastic. I suspect you do need a really nice amplifier to experience the refined and effortless sound these speakers are capable of.

    I must hear all the range in sound and this provides me with that from the tweeter to midrange and bass. I find that I need to turn it up to get the rich sound that I want and that's fine with me.

    Bought these for use as the rear speakers to round out our existing Martin Logan collection. We love the fullness they add to music in the room. I was surprised at just how much bass they produce from these small speakers. The wall mounts are clean, but sturdy. While Martin Logan products aren’t cheap, they are built solidly from quality materials, reflect their commitment and exhaustive research for premium sound and are stylish enough to compliment even the nicest decor.

    I bought these for rear surround speakers. I was a little worried I wouldn't like them as I found a pretty negative review online. These definitely don't sound as good as my Motion 60i's but because these are really for special effects noises they are perfect. They definitely need to be crossed over at 80hz and you have to have a subwoofer with them. They also have a 1/4x20 lug in them as they are designed to be wall mounted. Worked perfect for our needs.

    Fantastic and wide ranged. These bookshelf spreakers cost less then most that can compete and dominate my soundstage. Capable of reaching every feasible level of decible and making full use of that range. I'm blown away.

    Using these for my side surrounds and rear surrounds in my 7.2.4 Atmos system. Love the sound that the folded motion tweeter produces, very clean, clear and accurate. Great for home theatre applications

    Thanks to sales rep Jonathan T at store #250 for taking the time to test many different speakers. He went above what I asked for and helped me select exactly what I needed. I have limited space and want great sound. These speakers fill the need. I'll be moving soon and will be back to buy the sub woofer to round out the bass.

    Great speaker for surround sound speakers. Sounds great. Has the mounting screw hole for wall/ceiling mounting. Would recommend using banana plugs for these for a quick and easy connection.

    Never heard of Martin Logan until I had an in-house consultation. Been a Bose fan and bought nothing else since 1987, but went to a Magnolia store and heard what I've been missing. Full sound from every speaker and each corner of the room.
