Description of 🎶 Optimized Search: Gloss Black MartinLogan Motion 2i Bookshelf Speaker with Folded Tweeter (±3dB)

Folded Motion Tweeter "squeezes" air and requires almost 90% less excursion than the typical 1" dome tweeter, drastically minimizing distortion while providing a lightning fast response time. Elegant yet understated styling with a flawless high-gloss, piano black finish, subtle curves, and a signature perforated grille. Curved design means you can point sound directly toward the desired listening area for high or low wall mounting applications. Convenient push-style speaker terminals and curved inserts help guide speaker wire effortlessly into place, and accept banana plugs in addition to bare wire.

Disappointing Sound Quality

As hesitant buyer, I was hoping for a better experience from these speakers. As a result of using this product, I found that the sound quality was extremely poor with distorted highs and mids. The only pro I could find was the sleek design, but the poor performance overshadowed that. Unfortunately, these speakers did not meet my expectations and I would not recommend them to anyone in the market for electronics.

Pros

Cons
  • The MartinLogan Motion 2I Tweeter Bookshelf is quite pricey compared to other bookshelf speakers on the market.

High-quality bookshelf speakers at an affordable price

Martin Logan 4i does just that what you expect from ML in a column of shelves. The sound quality is excellent, the tweeters reproduce the high frequencies very well. I paired this with an 8i center channel and a 700w subwoofer. I feel like the mid-range is a bit lacking in my current setup. I'm moving the speakers around and recalibrating my receiver to see if that helps. Enjoyed watching "Bohemian Rhapsody" on ML 4i last night. The music sounded great. The balance between the 8i and the…

Pros
  • Folded Motion tweeter "compresses" the air and uses nearly 90% less excursion than a traditional 1" dome tweeter, drastically minimizing distortion and delivering lightning-fast response times
Cons
  • I'll write back later

They sound better than any speaker I've tried.

Martin Logan 4i speaker 12/11/18 Item (first speaker) arrived quickly. The box was heavier than I expected. The speaker was in a double box. When I unpacked the speaker, I noticed that the speaker is heavier than usual. I hope this is a mark of quality. I also noticed that the finish of the speaker is very nice. I guess that's known as piano lacquer. The speaker grille is packed separately and is attached with magnets. The speaker stands are embedded in the housing. They appear to be of high…

Pros
  • Convenient push-in speaker terminals and curved inserts help route speaker cable easily into place, and banana plugs can be used in addition to bare cable.
Cons
  • Slightly torn
