MartinLogan’s 40-year history. Motion® Series defines elegance and performance
by leveraging exclusive technologies and decades of experience. The result is a
loudspeaker collection that is not just an upgrade of its predecessor, but a
whole new level of quality and excellence.
Legendary MartinLogan Sound
MartinLogan speakers are known for their exceptional
articulation, detail and realism, regardless of the listening environment. By
using advanced thin-film technologies and Controlled Dispersion, MartinLogan delivers
a unique and unparalleled listening experience that is not commonly found in
other speakers.
Gen2 Obsidian Folded Motion® Tweeter XT
The Gen2 Obsidian FMT XT Tweeter has been upgraded with a
larger motor to provide higher output and lower distortion. The FMT XT offers
the most effortless and detailed sound in the Motion range with a 40% increase
in surface area over our signature FMT. Outside of our legendary Electrostatic
speakers, these new tweeters provide our cleanest, most detailed and accurate
high frequency presentation to date.
Folded Motion® Waveguide
After an extensive evaluation of nearly 50 design options,
the Folded Motion® Waveguide profile was meticulously chosen to harmoniously
align with the dispersion of the midrange drivers, resulting in enhanced
output. The waveguide guarantees consistent sound quality regardless of the
listener’s position and minimizes unwanted room reflections. Proper waveguide
design is crucial as it helps control the sound’s dispersion pattern, ensuring
that the sound is evenly distributed across the listening area and resulting in
optimal sound quality.
F.A.S.T. Outrigger Feet
The tower models in the Motion® range are designed with
tool-less height adjustability in mind, using the included rubber feet or
spikes, which enables the user to effortlessly level the speaker for optimal
stability on any floor. Additionally, the built-in anti-vibration properties
reduce the transfer of energy from the speaker to the floor, resulting in lower
distortion and coloration, providing a more accurate and detailed sound.
Nomex®-Reinforced Kevlar® Midrange
The Nomex®-Reinforced Kevlar® Midrange in the Motion® XT
Series offers a perfect balance of lightweight, strength, anti-resonance and
anti-ringing properties for unparalleled sound quality. When combined with the
Gen2 Obsidian FMT XT, the clarity of vocals, dialogue and instrumental accuracy
is unmatched at any volume. The seamless integration with Motion® XT CI
products makes creating custom solutions effortless.
Aluminum Bass Drivers
The exceptional characteristics of aluminum make it an ideal
choice for bass drivers. When paired with oversized motor structures and a
downward-firing port, the new Motion® speakers are extremely easy to place in
any room while providing outstanding bass performance at any volume.

Generating expert take…
MartinLogan emerged in the late 1970s from Lawrence, Kansas, when Gayle Martin Sanders and Ron Logan Sutherland, sharing a passion for electrostatic loudspeakers, united their engineering and design expertise. The duo, whose middle names inspired the brand, unveiled their breakthrough at the 1983 CES with the Monolith—the world's first practical hybrid electrostatic speaker, blending a curved panel for mids and highs with a dynamic woofer for bass. This American innovation addressed longstanding electrostatic limitations like fragility and poor low-end response, propelling the company from a high-end audio store collaboration to a dedicated manufacturing powerhouse.
The brand specializes in electrostatic and hybrid speakers, from flagship floorstanders like the CLX and Summit X to more accessible Motion Series designs, alongside complementary powered subwoofers and select electronics. Their proprietary thin-film transducers, advanced panel assembly, and room-optimized engineering define a lineup that prioritizes transparency and precision over conventional dynamic drivers, eschewing amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, MartinLogan commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its unwavering commitment to electrostatic purity, delivering ethereal soundstaging and timbral accuracy that make cabinets vanish. Now part of the PML group alongside Paradigm and Anthem, it blends Kansas heritage with rigorous innovation, appealing to buyers seeking reference-level realism in home audio and theater systems.
