Vojtko crossovers are designed in such a way that all drivers are kept within their optimal frequency range and balanced with one another. A Vojtko crossover isn't so much a set of design requirements as it is a philosophy.

His unique approach to crossover design is as big of a part of the "MartinLogan Sound" as are electrostatic and Folded Motion thin-film driver technologies. Vojtko crossovers are named after MartinLogan's chief audio technologist, Joe Vojtko.

Proprietary Vojtko ™ Crossover NetworksĬompact Motion Series speakers feature proprietary Vojtko crossover networks using custom air core coil inductors, low DCR steel laminate inductors, and polyester film and low-DF electrolytic capacitors for a seamless sonic presentation. It's a miracle of audio engineering that's able to deliver much of the high-frequency detail and speed of a large, dynamic electrostatic panel in a small space. Its folded design allows for a much larger surface area (compared to that of a regular 1-inch dome tweeter), controlled dispersion characteristics, and vanishingly low distortion. MartinLogan's signature Folded Motion tweeter utilizes an extremely low mass diaphragm that "squeezes" air, thus demanding significantly less excursion than the typical 1-inch dome tweeter. The desire to transmute that level of performance into a more traditional loudspeaker at a more affordable price drove the initial design imperatives that created the Motion Series. The success of the Motion Series is directly attributed to its close relation to MartinLogan’s legendary ultra-high-end electrostatic loudspeakers. Our 'no compromise' philosophy gives Motion Series a unique sound you won't find anywhere else. The result is an emotionally engaging sound that rivals (and most times trounces) traditional loudspeakers of similar size and price. What makes the Motion Series sound so amazing? MartinLogan's dedicated in-house engineering and design team started by utilizing and refining the most advanced, compact technologies and combining them with innovative engineering and time-honored cabinet construction techniques. Motion 4i can also mount upside down to facilitate placement high on a wall. Flexible installation options allow table top or on-wall installation. Low-frequencies are enhanced by a rear-firing Cascading Bass Reflex Port, a unique, long-volume port that delivers surprisingly big bass from a remarkably compact loudspeaker. Inspired by the clarity and detail of MartinLogan's ultra-high-end electrostatic loudspeakers, Motion 4i features a Folded Motion tweeter, 4-inch paper cone woofer, and a proprietary Vojtko crossover network in a compact and affordable package. Motion 4i Compact Bookshelf SpeakersĪudiophile performance without an audiophile price. The result is a smooth, refined sound with stunning dynamic range and jaw-dropping clarity. MartinLogan's dedicated in-house engineers carefully crafted the Motion Series to create an extremely affordable and compact product line that seamlessly blends our exquisite Folded Motion® transducers with powerful, compact bass technology. Pre-orders of the Motion C and Motion FX are currently available at by MartinLogan's ultra-high-end electrostatic loudspeakers, the Motion® Series was created to provide stunning sound for your ultimate-performance home theater or stereo. The Motion FX is available in October and retails for $399.95 each. The Motion C is available in September and retails for $499.95 each. The addition of the Motion C and FX represent the broadening availability of affordable speaker options from MartinLogan. Available in either black or white, the Motion FX is designed to corner mount, wall mount, or angle wall mount. The new Motion FX, the series' first dedicated surround channel, features dual Folded Motion tweeters in a wide dispersion array suited for surround channel applications.

The Motion C provides a step up for an enhanced home theater experience while existing at the same level of affordability and performance established by the Motion Series.īe sure to check out our other articles for more information, including MartinLogan Introduces Full-Sized XStat Electrostatic Loudspeaker Series, MartinLogan's Affordable Motion Series Speakers, and the MartinLogon Motion speaker system review by Dr. It features real black ash wood veneer that matches the floorstanding Motion 10 and Motion 12 speaker models. Like the Motion 8, the Motion C is a compact center channel engineered to produce sound with reportedly high levels of dynamic range and clarity. The new Motion C center channel features high power handling and Vojtko crossover topology for extended versatility in larger systems.
