MartinLogan Motion 40i Theater System Review
The looks have been improved, but it's all about the delivery. And spoiler alert: MartinLogan delivers. Brand spanking new, MartinLogan adds to the...
Beautiful fit and finish ; Cohesive soundstage ; Clear highs, mids, and deep bass ; Great at loud and quiet moments ; This replacing my current system

MartinLogan Motion 40 Loudspeaker
