    Flagship Motion-Series Tower Speaker

    The Motion® XT F200 is the flagship of MartinLogan's Motion Series and features the company's most advanced technologies. If you've been searching for a high-performance tower speaker, you'll have a hard time finding a better choice for anywhere near the price.

    The high-output, low-distortion Gen2 Obsidian FMT XT and Folded Motion® Waveguide seamlessly integrates with a Nomex®-Reinforced Kevlar® midrange and triple 8" aluminum bass drivers for a truly unparalleled listening experience. The effortless, dynamic bass and stunning clarity, coupled with precise, accurate detail, make this speaker the ultimate choice for discerning audiophiles and professionals alike.

    The Motion XT Upgrades Start Here!

    "Upgrades start with the new Gen2 Obsidian Folded Motion Tweeter, which uses larger magnets to achieve higher output while lowering distortion. In the higher-end XT series, tweeter surface area has also been increased 40% over the previous generation. A surface area that is considerably larger than a conventional dome tweeter is one of the key performance benefits of Folded Motion technology along with the ability to react faster than a dome due to its low mass. Even MartinLogan’s standard Folded Motion Tweeter has a surface area that’s eight times larger than a conventional dome, observes Bob Ankosko, Sound&Vision, February 7, 2023.

    "The company has also redesigned the horn-like waveguide attached to the Folded Motion Tweeter, settling on the final version only after evaluating almost 50 design iterations with the goal of enhancing the consistency, dispersion, and output of the tweeter."

    The Motion Series is MartinLogan's most ambitious acoustic and aesthetic development in the company's 40-year history. Motion 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 also a whole new level of quality and excellence.

    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 MartinLogan's 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.

    Nomex®-Reinforced Kevlar® Midrange

    The Nomex®-Reinforced Kevlar® Mid-bass offers a perfect balance of light weight, strength, anti-resonance, and anti-ringing properties for unparalleled sound quality. When combined with the Gen2 Obsidian FMT XT, its clarity of vocals, dialog, and instrumental accuracy are 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.

    F.A.S.T. Outrigger Feet

    The tower models in the Motion® Series 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.

    Modern Design Featuring Luxurious Finishes

    Motion® speakers are the epitome of high-performance audio, utilizing cutting-edge technology and the highest quality materials to deliver sound quality that is truly unmatched. Their sleek, sophisticated design is an artful complement to any luxurious interior.

    Available in three finishes – Piano Black, Walnut, and Satin White – the Motion® series is an exquisite addition to any discerning individual's home, rivaling the most elegant of furnishings. Upgrade your audio experience and enhance your space with the Motion® series.
