Martin Logan Motion 12 Floorstanding Speakers - SOLD

Recommended Posts

Up for sale our a pair of Martin Logan Motion 12 speakers that I've used for the past 3 1/2 years. They've been well-cared for and sound absolutely amazing. They are in excellent condition with the only blemish being two small holes in one of the grill cloths. They are used and may have scuff or small imperfection or may even be a little dusty. No major scratches, dings or dents.  Not sure about the cost of shipping, but likely around $100-$150.00S0S_lb2Bln2gErW_1200x900.thumb.jpg.c825f75c965997fd7edf2e5f651e6371.jpg00l0l_jisSWhMiTqI_1200x900.thumb.jpg.c16a079fac0ad96093b17ca259c1f60f.jpg00J0J_gGmuLYN8RTf_1200x900.thumb.jpg.ce0867dc44af2a7a2e8410a244ae549f.jpg00808_btQYMIqP8wU_1200x900.thumb.jpg.b2591eef2e39beeb2e3a1ba84e42bc0b.jpg

These feature the unique folded motion tweeter, a 5.25" mid and 2 6.5" midbasses. If you want to look at the specs:

hopefully they should sell !

 

Funny thing is I picked up a pair of Fortes that I was going to resell. I almost listed them in the Garage Sale, but once I hooked them up in place of the Martin Logan's I decided to keep them.  I just prefer the more upfront midrange and dynamics of the Klipsch.  The Martin Logan's sound very, very good and better in most aspects, but I just prefer the larger sound that the Fortes create.  The ML's create a quieter, smoother, more airy and detailed sound, but I guess I prefer the dynamics and more pronounced midrange of the Fortes.

 

I replaced really nice and much more expensive speakers in my media room 3 or 4 years ago with Forte II's and haven't regretted one bit.

the problem with him and his view.. he did not read about the frequency

responds of the speaker.. and he is right about having missing

audio frequency.. but the little heresy is basically a bookshelf speaker..

but what he doesn't tell you or anyone...the sound projected by the 

heresy..is the closest you will be to the real performance ...

 

I go through this with an old friend ... who has vintage Ed May and 

Bart Locanthi designs speakers jbl ,pioneer ,marantz..

 

one thing I did notice of the speaker's.. they have a exaggerated low/high frequency...or known as the California sound of the 70's..

do they sound good ...you bet.  But it doesn't sound like your their

at the proformace...live or in the studio... no !

 

Before I auditioned one of those speakers..I was giving a special

drum performance...by his son...

What I did realize is listening to those so called Ed and Bart speakers..

the drum sound reproduce wasn't real ..it sounded like drums of course. but not like you where there.. like just moments before I listened to his

son playing is drums...

 

so if you want to hear everything in all in one speaker that goes to the top and bottom of  there frequency range.....with no real feel of the 

performance get those...but if your like me ! and you like the realality of sound in a performance . like your there in the studio or the stage...Get the klipsch that floats your boat...

 

I posted this in the 2 channel section..

it comes down on what you like..

there are a lot of good speakers out there.

but what ones give you more bang for the buck..
