Ultimate Dialog Clarity and Consistency in Every Seat
MartinLogan's Motion XT C100 is the optimal center channel for any Motion® XT or Motion®-based surround system. It features MartinLogan's latest Gen2 Folded Motion® XT Tweeter with advanced Folded Motion® Waveguide technology for ultimate dialog clarity and consistency in every seat. The anti-lobing crossover design further increases accuracy, while the flippable cabinet provides a slight angle if desired, making it perfect for a low-mounted shelf or TV stand.
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.
Anti-Lobing Center Channel Design
Motion® center channel speakers utilize a 2.5-way crossover design to eliminate lobing and preserve the tonality of the source material. This results in a significant reduction of negative effects on sound reproduction, leading to a more precise and accurate listening experience.
Flippable Center Channel Cabinet
The unique flippable design of the Motion® cabinet allows for better sound clarity and immersion when placed on a lower shelf or piece of furniture by directing the sound upwards towards the listener's ears.
