    I was set on buying another brand because of how my surround sound speakers would be placed etc. I was buying surround first and working my way to the front. Totally WRONG! I went to my local BB to shop and I saw these demo model but did not buy them because of the Ohms. I did some research and went back on Thanksgiving Day. Luckily they were still there, they did not have the jumpers ( I got some ) but what I paid versus new was a bargain plus. Beauty aside, imaging is second to none.

    Top Notch Performer with a smaller footprint

    I have very specific space constraints. I have only 8 inches width and 12 inches of depth available for each speaker. I have no restriction on height. It is hard to find speakers that can fit in this footprint. These speakers fit and they are gorgeous. The wood finish is very professional and furniture like. I am pairing these with Martin Logan Depth subwoofer. This setup really rocks. Martin Logan Customer Service is the best. There is a real person in Kansas who gets back to you immediately.

    Splurge on yourself and buy these. They'll unintentionally turn you into sound snob and have you wondering how you listened to music before folded motion tweeters. I bought two of these for a simple all-purpose stereo system for TV, music, & movies and paired it with a Denon AVR920. It sounds fantastic. They're great if you like a wide variety of music. The mid to highs are really clear for your folk/acoustic tracks where you can hear every pin drop, and there's plenty of boom to shake the apartment down when you start listening to Kendrick. The first few weeks I was just jamming to my entire music collection because it sounded so great and you hear new things in tracks because of the clarity of the folded tweeters. I'll probably get a subwoofer when I move to larger place and for improved movie effects, but I honestly don't miss it with two of these as front speakers. Not sure how to really describe the bass--some of the other highly rated speakers make everything bass heavy--even commercials, which annoying--these speakers in comparison are just clean sounding. The boom is there only when it's intended--the apartment shouldn't shake for a voice over in a yogurt commercial. Very happy with this purchase--I'll probably buy more speakers from the Martin Logan Motion series. Really the only decision you have to make is whether you need the 20s, 40s, or 60s depending on the size of the room and how badly you want to upset the neighbors. I almost bought the 40s and I'm glad I didn't.

    Love these speakers. They have such a balance sound with ample bass. Great depth of sound and soundstage. I prefer hooking these up to a class D3 receiver. I don't use a amp but I'm happy with the power. I love that the footprint of these speakers aren't too big where its an eyesore. Using tower speakers sounds better than the soundbars so if you have the space go with these. Stereo is great on these.

    I bought these to be my new front speakers of my home theater. The sound blows you away! It was easy to set up and the ability to bi-amp them was a bonus.

    These are so clear. The high range sounds are very crisp. The volume is comparable to bookshelf speakers but they have more bass.

    My 30YO Boston Acoustics finally bit the dust. After much research I decided one these. I bought an open box pair for almost 50% off and they're in very nice shape. No boxes though. The sound is very nice especially the kids and highs. Deep bass is lacking but what can you expect for the size. Overall I'm happy.

    I purchased these to replace a pair of Klipsch bookshelf speakers that I did not even have for 3 months. I was looking for a cleaner crisp sound in the highs.....I found it.... Martin Logan in my "opinion" has the best, most crisp highs and can certainly fill a room with clean sound. Not to mention the piano finish on these towers are beautiful.
