Features:
3-Way Tower Loudspeaker: The MartinLogan Motion 40 tower loudspeaker employs a 3-way speaker design and features MartinLogan's advanced resolution Folded Motion Tweeter, a 5.
5" aluminum cone midrange driver, and two 6.
5" aluminum cone bass woofers.
Pairing these trio of woofers together with the Folded Motion Tweeter creates a dynamic full-range sound with an expansive soundstage.
Folded Motion Tweeter: MartinLogan's Folded Motion Tweeter helps give the Motion 40 tower loudspeaker its natural, realistic high frequency sound.
Lightning fast transient response, combined with a large surface area (8x that of a typical 1" dome tweeter) creates clear, dynamic, and precise sound.
The 1" x 1.
4" Folded Motion Tweeter works by moving air (which creates sound) perpendicular to the folded ridges of the diaphragm, similar to how an accordion works.
This extremely low mass diaphragm "squeezes" air and requires almost 90% less excursion than the typical 1" dome tweeter, which drastically minimizes distortion while providing a lightning fast response time.
The increased surface area also provides a wide, yet controlled sound dispersion (80°x80°) to create a realistic and carefully etched sound stage.
5.
5" Midrange Driver: The MartinLogan Motion 40 loudspeaker features a 5.
5" aluminum cone midrange driver housed in a non-resonant asymmetrical chamber.
The aluminum cone driver uses a rigid structured dust cap to reduce cone break-up and distortion.
This 5.
5" midrange driver promotes an even more open, revealing, and authentic sound in the critical midrange/midbass.
Two Aluminum 6.
5" Woofers w/ Rear-Firing Bass Port: The MartinLogan Motion 40 also features dual 6.
5" aluminum cone bass woofers housed in a non-resonant asymmetrical chamber with a rear-firing port.
The aluminum cone woofers use a rigid structured dust cap to reduce cone break-up and distortion.
The two 6.
5" woofers paired with the rear-firing bass port create increased cone area delivering higher output and audibly richer, deeper bass performance.
Precision Vojtko Crossovers: To seamlessly blend the audio output from the Folded Motion Tweeter, 5.
5" midrange driver, and dual 6.
5" bass woofers, the Motion 40 tower speaker features two precision Vojtko crossovers (500/2,600Hz) utilizing custom air core coil and low DCR steel laminate inductors, polyester film capacitors in series, and low DF electrolytic capacitors in parallel.
Bi-Wirable Binding Post: The MartinLogan Motion 40 features bi-wirable binding posts and provide the ultimate level of flexibility for connection and setup.
MartinLogan's proprietary tool-less binding posts simplify cable connection and management.
Two sets are supplied; one connected to the tweeter and midrange, while the other is connected to the dual woofers.
You can choose to bi-wire/bi-amp the Motion 40 loudspeaker, or use jumper clips between the binding post sets for a single wire-connection.
The binding posts will accept bare wire (16- to 8-gauge), pin-connectors, spade-connectors, and banana plugs (single only).
High-Gloss Cabinet: Complementing the Motion 40 loudspeaker's sonic accuracy is its elegant, yet understated styling.
A high-gloss, piano black or black cherrywood finish, along with MartinLogan's signature perforated grille, give the Motion 40 speaker an elegant and timeless look that will blend into almost any decor.
