    These speakers are great when used for surround channels. Very clear. A noticeable upgrade from the MotionFX speakers priced $300 cheaper.

    I'm currently using these as surrounds with MartinLogan Motion 40s and a Motion 30, and they do their job quite well. They provide a very enveloping, engaging experience and blend very well with the other Motions in my system. The star of these speakers is definitely the folded motion tweeters, which provide very clean, transparent highs, and help the FXs "disappear" in the room.

  • Ugly and adequet

    Ducking one star because these are ugly and the grill cannt be removed. Ducking another star because 1) the connectors are poorly designed and 2) they sound adequete. I bought these to supplement my Motion 60XTis and Motion 50. They sound pretty flat. I ended up returning them and getting Electro Motion FX2s. Those are awesome and sound very rich.

    These are very good speakers, but you really must have a huge room to use them as surrounds.
