MartinLogan - Motion XT Series 2.5-Way Center-Channel, Gen2 Folded Motion XT Tweeter, Dual 6.5" Midbass Drivers, Angled Cabinet (Each) - Walnut

The all-new Motion and Motion XT Series are some of the most beautiful looking designs in MartinLogan history, ushering in a new era of design and aesthetics. The three modern yet timeless colorways can compliment any room, while being a focal point if so desired. Coupled with the absolute best performance seen in a Motion product to date, evoking a look and sound like nothing else found in the industry. The Motion XT line, or ‘eXTreme’, is MartinLogan’s highest performance tier of Motion Series speakers. Motion XT is all about more; more detail, more clarity, and more power. The Motion XT Series models pair high-performance Woven Kevlar Midrange Drivers, reinforced with a Nomex backer to eliminate detail reducing resonance and ringing, with MartinLogan’s highest performance tweeter; the aptly named Gen2 Folded Motion XT Tweeter. The Motion Waveguide enhances the Controlled Dispersion of the tweeter to a generous 45°(Vertical) by 90°(Horizontal) to accommodate a wide range of seating and speaker placement options, while avoiding clarity destroying sound reflections within the environment.

The MartinLogan Sound

Regardless of the environment, MartinLogan speakers are more articulate, detailed, and realistic. Utilizing exotic thin film technologies and Controlled Dispersion, MartinLogan provides unique and special listening experiences not commonly found in the industry.

Gen2 Folded Motion XT Tweeters

The Gen2 Folded Motion XT Tweeter is the highest performance variant of MartinLogan’s signature FMT technology. Elevating the signature FMT to new heights with a 40% increase in surface area, the FMT XT offers the most effortless and detailed sound in the Motion range.

Motion Waveguide

Enhances the Controlled Dispersion of the Gen2 Folded Motion Tweeter, 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.

Controlled Dispersion

Room acoustics are vital, as everything in the listening room has an impact on speaker performance. 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.

Kevlar-Nomex Midrange

Motion XT’s Kevlar-Nomex Midrange provides an ideal combination of lightweight, high strength, and anti-resonance for maximum fidelity. When paired with Motion XT’s Gen2 FMT XT, the vocal clarity, dialogue, and instrumental accuracy are unrivaled at any volume.

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 the best performance.

Enchanced Cabinet Bracing

If a speaker cabinet isn’t braced properly, it will vibrate or resonate, resulting in masked clarity and detail. The latest Motion XT series cabinetry is MartinLogan’s quietest design yet, maximizing the performance of their proprietary audio technologies.

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.

Angeled Cabinet

When placed on a shelf or piece of furniture below ear level, the ‘flippable’ design of the center-channel enables the listener to aim the sound upwards towards the audience’s ears, improving dialogue clarity and immersion.

Anti-Lobing Design

Typical center channel designs result in lobing, which negatively alters the tonality of the source material. The 2.5-Way crossover design minimizes these harmful effects culminating in clearer dialogue and higher accuracy.
