{"product_id":"martin-logan-xtc8-in-ceiling-speakers-each","title":"Martin Logan XTC8 In Ceiling Speakers Each","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor true next level performance over the MC8 (its Motion CI counterpart), the XTC8 features our largest and highest performing FMT XT and a woven Kevlar woofer. These features make a noticeable improvement to the sound but also help to reduce unwanted room acoustic artifacts. With a more controlled 80° x 30° dispersion, the FMT XT is a powerful tool that delivers unheard levels of realism from a CI speaker in even the most acoustically challenging rooms. The XTC8 is a great choice for a high performance whole house music system, or for premium home theater. Its unique combination of high-performance drivers and controlled dispersion allows you to control where sound is placed in a room and provides an even better experience.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe MartinLogan Motion XT CI series takes performance to the next level over Motion CI. The Folded Motion XT tweeter gives each model in the Motion XT series even more of the clarity, output and efficiency that the standard size FMT is famous for. With Motion XT, we wanted to increase all aspects of performance over the Motion series, so we didn’t just stop at the tweeter. All Motion XT models feature woven Kevlar woofers for increased rigidity and lightness as well as a special Nomex layer on the back side of the woofer material which increases clarity and realism by reducing resonance and ringing. In addition to the larger tweeter, and lighter, stronger woofers, MartinLogan’s design and engineering team has fitted the Motion XT series with a more substantial chassis to strengthen the speaker and provide a more accurate sound, similar to a better cabinet on a traditional speaker. The Nomex layer and the chassis are not something you can see after installation, but it matters to the performance of the speaker, so it matters to us. With Motion XT CI, the difference is in the details.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"title5\"\u003eThe Sound of Invisibility:\u003cbr\u003eFolded Motion\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eTweeters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMartinLogan's signature Folded Motion Tweeter utilizes an extremely low-mass diaphragm that \"squeezes\" air, thus requiring significantly less excursion than the typical 1-inch dome tweeter. 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. It's a miracle of audio engineering that delivers much of the high-frequency detail, speed and response of a large, dynamic electrostatic panel in a small space. Folded Motion XT tweeters advance thin-film transducer technology even further with a 40% larger radiating surface and 80x30-degree controlled dispersion. This upgrade increases audible bandwidth without sacrificing detail and reduces distortion to an incredibly low level while increasing efficiency and the tweeter's already lightning-fast response time. The result is superior realism and alarming specificity that is aurally astounding, and only by MartinLogan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis thin-film transducer design packs all the accuracy and delicacy of an electrostatic panel into a small space. Folding the dramatically lightweight film into an accordion-like structure increases the surface area, giving Folded Motion tweeters eight to ten times greater surface area than typical tweeters. This ideal combination of light and large produces superior accuracy, extended frequency bandwidth and higher output capability; all with a faster, more efficient transient response, and virtually zero distortion. In these characteristics, the Folded Motion Tweeter design can mimic the performance of a large electrostatic panel in the confines of a more traditional loudspeaker enclosure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"title5\"\u003eWoven Kevlar Cones\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll Motion XT CI speakers feature very lightweight woven Kevlar cones specifically engineered to keep pace with the lightning speed of our highest performance Folded Motion Tweeter XT. While these high-performance drivers offer both increased rigidity and lightness, we took an extra step by adding a special Nomex layer on the back side of the woofer material which increases clarity and realism by reducing resonance and ringing. This layer is not something you can see after installation, but it matters to the performance of the speaker, so it matters to us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo matter which Motion XT CI speaker you choose for your room, rest assured they are designed to provide a consistently high level of performance and can easily be used with other MartinLogan speakers to make creating the perfect system for your unique listening space that much easier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"title5\"\u003eThe MartinLogan Sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMartinLogan Motion XT CI speakers sound incredible in any room. Regardless of the environment, our speakers just sound better, more articulate, more detailed, and more realistic. With Controlled Dispersion and one of the most responsive tweeters in the industry, our in-wall and in-ceiling models can compete with and often exceed the performance of traditional cabinet speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"title5\"\u003eSpring-Loaded Binding Posts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith easy pre-installation access, our spring-loaded binding posts feature a large 4.5mm wire access hole and connect via banana plug, pin, or 12AWG bare wire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"title5\"\u003eMicro-Perforated Grilles\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll MartinLogan architectural speakers feature an ultra-low profile, paintable, micro-perforated grilles with no visible bezel for a near-invisible integration into any wall or ceiling. A series of powerful magnets hidden inside the speaker quickly secure grilles into place, reducing the risk of warping or damage during installation. Optional square grilles are available for all current MartinLogan in-ceiling speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uk-container-expand\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uk-grid uk-grid-collapse\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uk-width-xxlarge@m uk-padding uk-inline\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uk-position-center\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"title5\"\u003eProprietary Vojtko\u003csup\u003e™\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eCrossover Networks\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVojtko Crossovers are named after MartinLogan's chief audio technologist, Joe Vojtko.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis unique approach to crossover design is just as crucial to MartinLogan's Truth in Sound as are our innovative electrostatic and Folded Motion thin-film driver technologies.

This helps contain the sound coming off the back of the speaker to dramatically reduce unwanted sound that can travel through the floor and up into the living space above the speaker. For those desiring increased bass output, or for when sound control is not required, you can simply choose to use the speaker without the optional enclosure so it can take full advantage of the larger air volume provided by the space in the ceiling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"title5\"\u003ePre-Installation Brackets\u003cbr\u003e(sold separately)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePre-installation brackets are available for every \u2028model in the Motion XT CI Series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"title2\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSpecifications are subject to change without notice\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"uk-table uk-table-hover uk-table-divider\" id=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrequency Response\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e51 - 25,000 Hz ±3dB\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTweeter Dispersion (horizontal x vertical)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e30 x 80 degrees\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecommended Amplifier Power\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRange 50–300 Watts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSensitivity\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e91dB @2.83V\/ 1 meter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImpedance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4 ohms.
