MartinLogan Motion® XT C100
A center channel for your Motion XT speaker system
The MartinLogan Motion XT C100 delivers clear, detailed dialogue, music, and sound effects as part of a Motion XT home theater system. Like the other speakers in the lineup, it features carefully chosen drivers, and intelligently designed crossovers. And this center channel speaker's gently angled, modern-looking cabinet was designed so you can flip it upside down to angle the sound up toward your listening position if placing it on a lower shelf.
Upgraded Motion XT® tweeter
MartinLogan's acclaimed Folded Motion XT tweeter uses a pleated diaphragm that works similarly to an accordion by "squeezing" air to create sound. The C100's upgraded Gen2 Obsidian version of this tweeter uses larger magnets for greater detail and accuracy. The new design places it inside a custom Folded Motion waveguide that enhances dispersion of high-frequency sound throughout your listening area.
Because it requires almost 90% less excursion than the typical 1" dome tweeter, response time is drastically reduced along with distortion. The diaphragm's increased surface area also provides wide, yet controlled sound dispersion to create a realistic and highly accurate soundstage. Its response is amazingly detailed, but smooth and effortless, without a trace of harshness. And the "XT" version of this tweeter that gives the Motion XT series part of its name boasts a 40% larger radiating surface area than MartinLogan's standard Folded Motion design, for even greater bandwidth and efficiency.
Accurate midrange and impactful bass
The C100 boasts dual 6-1/2" Nomex-reinforced Kevlar® cone woofers for fast, clean mid/bass performance. This speaker uses a "2.5-way" design in which one of the woofers covers more of the midrange frequencies for smoother blending with the tweeter. The cabinet's rear-firing port helps deliver impactful low end that enhances movies, TV shows, and gaming.
Unique crossover network
MartinLogan's proprietary Vojtko™ crossovers are named after MartinLogan's chief audio technologist, Joe Vojtko. The latest Motion XT speakers feature upgraded McCracken-Vojtko crossovers, so named for the influence of the company's other well-known Joe — senior loudspeaker designer Joe McCracken.
No matter what they're called, the aim is always the same: each speaker's drivers are carefully selected or designed to operate within an intentional frequency range and specific performance parameters. That allows the crossover networks — built from high-quality capacitors and resistors — to be clean and uncomplicated, for purer sound.
Product highlights:
1.25" x 2.4" Gen2 Obsidian Folded Motion® XT tweeter with custom waveguide
two 6-1/2" Nomex-reinforced Kevlar® cone mid/bass drivers with cast aluminum baskets
2.5-way design: one 6-1/2" driver covers more of the midrange frequencies for smoother blending with the tweeter
bass-reflex (ported) cabinet with rear-firing port
"flippable" design angles the sound upward for placement on a lower shelf
