    Amazing! I first want to mention a big thank you to.... Best Buy and Magnolia! The Magnolia salesman was awesome and let me listen to various speakers using music and movies. You cannot get that kind of service or even try a product with online shopping. We need our brick and mortar stores to stay. So please shop at Brick and Mortar. Anyway, I went to Magnolia to replace my 25 year old Infinity speakers. Some speakers I listened to, just seem to fill the room with sound. But, the Martin Logan speakers were spot on with crystal clear clarity and the most natural sounding. The bass is awesome as well. No distortion. Originally purchased the 40i Motion towers, 15i Bookshelves and a 30i center. Returned the 30 center for the 50x for a better match for my new 40i towers. What a difference! I listen to both movies and music and again the clarity, natural sound and bass is incredible. Also, my Denon 3000 series would always run hot and now does not get hot at all, even with action movies at a higher volume. Extremely Pleased. Again, Thank you Magnolia

    I've watched a lot of movies since I purchased this a month ago and the sound is very good. It has a surprising amount of bass which in most surround setups you don't need as much from a center channel but it does sound nice compared to my previous center channel. It's pretty big and takes up a good amount of space on our entertainment table so be wary of that.

    One of the best sounding speakers . This thing is just great. The sound stage is more present, sound between all 3 speakers is so even, objects moving from left to right are so much more clear .

    This Center Channel along with the Motion 60 is a match made in heaven. Just make sure you have jumper clips, mine didn't vome with them and i had to order from the manufacturer but otherwise great product.

    Bought this one to match with my 40is floor tower. Sound is super crisp, clear with all details . If you're in Martin Logan motion line, this one is highly recommended to push your home theater to the next level

    While Martin Logan are known for their ESL speakers, their Motion line offers up incredible performance and clarity of sound at relatively more affordable prices. Also the more traditional drivers in these speakers create a wider field of sound for multiple listening positions. The center channel is able to create a great focal point for dialog and primary audio in a home theater, but also blends seamlessly with the rest of the Motion line to create a very immersive experience.

    Sound quality is amazing I have. It paired with the eight inch towers and it sounds absolutely out of this world! You can hear a slight difference in tone going from the left to center to right because even though the 8" towers have matching 6.5" midrange, The center channel obviously doesn't have the 8" woofer to carry the symmetrical bass. Still love this speaker. I listen to movies as well as music and music sounds out of this world!

    Excellent clarity, very natural midrange and high end with the power handling I was looking for. The build quality is also excellent - you get what you pay for.

    This speaker is simply amazing. Voices come clear and without a hint of distortion. Bass is deep and high notes are sharp. It all comes together to form a wonderful home theater experience. Be aware however than B&W speakers generally prefer good power amps so don’t skimp on your AVR/Amp.
