MartinLogan Motion 20

The Folded Motion tweeter uses a pleated diaphragm that moves air much faster and more efficiently than a traditional dome. This design results in significantly lower distortion and a much wider sound dispersion, which helps create a more realistic and detailed soundstage in your room.

Yes, the Motion 20 is compatible with most standard amplifiers. It has an impedance of 4 Ohms but is designed to work seamlessly with receivers rated for 4, 6, or 8 Ohms, provided your amplifier can handle the recommended power range of 20 to 200 watts per channel.

Bi-wiring is an optional feature for those who want to optimize their connection, but it is not required for the speakers to sound excellent. The custom 5-way binding posts allow for bi-wiring if you prefer, but standard single-wire connections will work perfectly fine.

Yes, the Motion 20 is specifically designed as a compact floorstanding speaker. Its slim footprint makes it much easier to place in smaller rooms compared to traditional, bulkier tower speakers, without sacrificing the deep bass performance of its dual 5-1/2" woofers.

Because the Motion 20 features a rear-firing bass port, you should avoid placing them directly against a wall. Leaving a few inches of clearance behind the speaker will allow the port to breathe properly, preventing the bass from sounding muddy or boomy.
