Distinctive Design, Elegant Execution, Beautiful Sound. Motion: Reimagined.

Motion F10

While the Motion® F10 is the smallest floorstanding model in our assortment, it offers impressive levels of detail, clarity, and dynamics that defy the expectations of its compact design. With a height of under 39", the Motion® F10 can fit into almost any decor without being overbearing. With the combination of our Gen2 FMT, Woven Fiberglass midrange, and dual 5.5" aluminum bass drivers, Motion® F10 provides an engaging listening experience for all of your favourite content.


Motion®: Reimagined

Our most ambitious acoustic and aesthetic development in MartinLogan's 40-year history. Motion® Series defines elegance and performance by leveraging exclusive technologies and decades of experience. The result is a loudspeaker collection that is not just an upgrade of its predecessor, but a whole new level of quality and excellence.


Legendary MartinLogan Sound

MartinLogan speakers are known for their exceptional articulation, detail and realism, regardless of the listening environment. By using advanced thin-film technologies and Controlled Dispersion, MartinLogan delivers a unique and unparalleled listening experience that is not commonly found in other speakers.


Gen2 Obsidian Folded Motion® Tweeter

Our signature thin-film tweeter technology just got better. With an upgraded motor structure, the latest Gen2 FMT provides higher output and lower distortion than ever before.


Folded Motion® Waveguide

After an extensive evaluation of nearly 50 design options, the Folded Motion® Waveguide profile was meticulously chosen to harmoniously align with the dispersion of the midrange drivers, resulting in enhanced output. The waveguide guarantees consistent sound quality regardless of the listener's position and minimizes unwanted room reflections. Proper waveguide design is crucial as it helps control the sound's dispersion pattern, ensuring that the sound is evenly distributed across the listening area and resulting in optimal sound quality.


F.A.S.T. Outrigger Feet

The tower models in the Motion® range are designed with tool-less height adjustability in mind, using the included rubber feet or spikes, which enables the user to effortlessly level the speaker for optimal stability on any floor. Additionally, the built-in anti-vibration properties reduce the transfer of energy from the speaker to the floor, resulting in lower distortion and coloration, providing a more accurate and detailed sound.


Woven-Fiberglass Midrange

The lightweight and strong Woven Fiberglass midrange in the Motion® series is perfectly suited for keeping pace with Motion’s Gen2 FMT, providing crystal clear dialogue and vocals, as well as lifelike instrumentals.


Aluminum Bass Drivers

The exceptional characteristics of aluminum make it an ideal choice for bass drivers. When paired with oversized motor structures and a downward-firing port, the new Motion® speakers are extremely easy to place in any room while providing outstanding bass performance at any volume.


Modern Design Featuring Luxurious Finishes

The latest Motion® speakers utilize cutting-edge technology and the highest quality materials to deliver sound quality that is truly unmatched. Their sleek, sophisticated design is an artful complement to any interior. Available in three finishes of Satin White, Walnut or Gloss Black, these speakers are an exquisite addition to any discerning individual's home. Upgrade your audio experience and enhance your space with the Motion® series.

Overall Score 92/100

Rating for [object Object]

Deliciously Crispy

The Motion F10 delivers a strikingly big, room-filling sound anchored by massive bass and high sensitivity that lets modest amps drive muscular dynamics. Its Gen2 Folded Motion tweeter and driver integration yield a detailed midrange and precise stereo image, while downward porting and adjustable feet make placement straightforward — praised by Sound Advice.

Sound Advice

"Massive and weighty sound from not much amplifier power, thanks to high sensitivity."

Pros

  • Twin 5.5" aluminium drivers deliver powerful, room-filling bass that underpins big dynamics.
  • High 92dB sensitivity makes the speakers easy to drive, producing weighty sound without a high-power amplifier.
  • Gen2 Folded Motion tweeter and careful driver integration provide detailed midrange and a well-defined stereo image.

&

Cons

  • Deep fundamentals around 50–60Hz can be a little light, so the lowest octaves may benefit from subwoofer support.

Sound Quality

93/100

Bass

92/100

Reviewers praise 'massive bass' from the twin 5.5" aluminium woofers and describe a weighty, room-filling low end, though fundamentals around 50–60Hz were noted as needing help. Given the dual 5.5" drivers (small-tower band) this sits at an 'excellent' level for the class.

Mid

94/100

Voices are described as especially well presented, focused and lush; reviewers highlight excellent detail and timbral richness (vintage vocal/piano performances cited). Crossover integration yields coherent midrange presence.

Treble

92/100

The Gen2 Obsidian Folded Motion tweeter with waveguide and upgraded motor is credited for controlled dispersion, lower distortion and good integration—resulting in extended, refined highs without reported harshness.

Soundstage Imaging

93/100

Review mentions 'excellent detail and a solid stereo image' and 'excellent stereo focus', indicating a wide, well-defined soundstage with stable imaging between the speakers.

Dynamics

94/100

High sensitivity and reviewer comments about delivering 'all the dynamics of a symphony orchestra' and room-shaking rock suggest strong micro/macro dynamics and headroom for typical listening levels.

Build Quality

92/100

Fit and finish are described as excellent, with solid construction and attractive finishes; grille-on/off appearance and build robustness are praised.

Features Connectivity

80/100

Passive tower baseline applied. Review cites downward-firing port for placement ease, bi-amp/bi-wire capable 5-way binding posts, and the F.A.S.T. Feet system/outrigger feet, but per passive-tower policy the connectivity score is fixed at the baseline.

Value for Money

88/100

At the listed $1,399 price the speakers deliver high sensitivity, strong dynamics and a weighty full-range sound; reviewers emphasize big performance for modest amplifier power, supporting good value though not described as a bargain relative to high-end peers.
