MartinLogan Motion MC6-HT

Yes, the micro-perforated grilles are designed to be painted. We recommend using a light spray paint to ensure the tiny holes do not become clogged, which helps maintain the speaker's acoustic performance.

Yes, the MC6-HT is a passive speaker and does not have a built-in amplifier. You will need to connect it to an external receiver or power amplifier to drive the audio.

The Folded Motion Tweeter uses a pleated diaphragm that moves air much faster and more efficiently than a traditional dome. This results in significantly lower distortion, higher clarity, and a more detailed high-frequency response.

The MC6-HT is designed to utilize the airspace within your ceiling cavity for optimal bass response, so a back box is not strictly required. However, an optional retrofittable back enclosure is available if you need to meet specific fire codes or want to isolate the sound from other rooms.

The grilles attach using hidden magnets, which provide a clean, bezel-less look. They are very secure for ceiling mounting while remaining easy to remove if you ever need to access the speaker for maintenance.
