help MartinLogan Motion 20i FAQ
Does the MartinLogan Motion 20i use a true electrostatic speaker panel?
No, the Motion 20i is a passive bookshelf speaker that uses MartinLogan's Folded Motion tweeter with a conventional cone woofer. The compact folded diaphragm is designed to provide detailed high frequencies without requiring a full-size electrostatic panel.
What is the Folded Motion tweeter in the Motion 20i?
It is a folded diaphragm tweeter that packs a large radiating surface into a compact 1-inch by 1.4-inch assembly. MartinLogan uses the design to produce focused treble from a bookshelf-sized cabinet.
Does the Motion 20i need an amplifier?
Yes, the Motion 20i is a passive speaker and needs a separate stereo amplifier or AV receiver. It is not an active Bluetooth speaker with a built-in amplifier, so the source system must provide speaker power.
Is the Motion 20i suitable for a home theater system?
It can serve as a compact left, right, or surround speaker in a conventional home theater system when paired with an AV receiver. Its MartinLogan Motion-series voicing also makes it useful in a stereo setup, especially when a subwoofer handles the deepest bass.
