Room: 17' X 28' Hardwood looking tile - no carpets (I have a long haired German Shepherd) couch height 18" TV distance to couch 14' What I recently purchased: (2) Martin Logan SLM XL for L&R (1) Martin Logan SLM (Center) What I have already: Denon 4200W 65" OLED B7A Monster XP wires ran in walls (from previous home owner looks like 16 gauge maybe 14guage haven't brought out the caliper just yet) Sewell Banana plugs Goal: Quality setup in the living room that I won't have to worry about for 5+ years. This is a slow build for me for budget reasons and the largest purchase to date. There are a lot of great choices at this price point, but the MartinLogan "Folded Motion" tweeters sound really sweet to my ears.I recently pulled the trigger on a setup. Depending on your room and the style of surround speakers you prefer, either the Motion 15s or FXs are excellent choices. I haven't heard the Motion 30, but their specs are very close, I'd be very surprised if the Motion 30 was anything but superlative.Īs far as the surrounds go, the Motion 2/4s are good but not great to my ears. I bought the EM C2 center, as the Motion 30 center hadn't been released when I bought my system. If, however you like multi-channel stereo when listening to your music, for that "envelope" of sound, The Motion 15's will get the job done as L/R. If you're planning on listening to stereo music content with just two speakers running, you want the motion 40s. This is a system that never feels like you're missing out or compromised on anything aurally.įirst- The motion 40 towers are awesome. Overall, the system is absolutely sublime, for both music and for Home Theater. I'm using a PSA XS-15 subwoofer, which absolutely outperforms the Dynamo 1000, hands down. I've got a 5.1 ML setup, though a few differences Motion 15s (actually LX-16- same speaker, slightly different styling) for L/R, ElectroMotion C2 center, and FX surrounds. The upper –3-dB point is at 131 Hz with the Crossover switch set to Bypass.-MJP
The Dynamo 1000W’s close-miked response, normalized to the level at 80 Hz, indicates that the lower –3-dB point is at 23 Hz and the –6-dB point is at 20 Hz. Impedance reaches a minimum of 3.78 ohms at 2.0 kHz and a phase angle of –61.05 degrees at 136 Hz. The –3-dB point is at 83 Hz, and the –6-dB point is at 69 Hz. The Motion 15’s listening-window response measures +1.54/–2.84 dB from 200 Hz to 10 kHz. Impedance reaches a minimum of 3.94 ohms at 53 Hz and a phase angle of –33.69 degrees at 41 Hz. The –3-dB point is at 86 Hz, and the –6-dB point is at 71 Hz. An average of axial and +/–15-degree horizontal responses measures +2.68/–4.75 dB from 200 Hz to 10 kHz. The Motion 30’s listening-window response measures +2.70/–3.86 dB from 200 Hz to 10 kHz. Impedance reaches a minimum of 3.48 ohms at 111 Hz and a phase angle of –44.04 degrees at 69 Hz. The –3-dB point is at 48 Hz, and the –6-dB point is at 40 Hz. The Motion 40’s listening-window response (a five-point average of axial and +/–15-degree horizontal and vertical responses) measures +2.25/–4.34 decibels from 200 hertz to 10 kilohertz. All passive loudspeakers were measured with grilles at a distance of 1 meter with a 2.83-volt input and scaled for display purposes. This graph shows the quasi-anechoic (employing close-miking of all woofers) frequency response of the Motion 40 L/R (purple trace), Motion 30 center channel (green trace), Motion 15 surround (red trace), and Dynamo 1000 subwoofer (blue trace). Surround Sensitivity: 88 dB from 500 Hz to 2 kHz L/R Sensitivity: 91 dB from 500 Hz to 2 kHzĬenter Sensitivity: 89 dB from 500 Hz to 2 kHz
