Description from the seller

A beautiful, mint-condition set of the highly regarded MartinLogan Motion Foundation B1 monitor speakers is offered. This set comes in the most sought-after and stylish color scheme: Walnut with refined Bronze trim, giving the speakers a timeless and luxurious look.

Important note for buyers: This specific pair has been used exclusively as a showroom demo model and has only been played for a few hours in total. The speakers are therefore in absolute showroom condition: technically and visually as good as new, but without the full burn-in time.

Extra value: This set is shipped with the original MartinLogan factory box and the custom-made inner foam packaging. This ensures optimal value retention and safe transport.

Audiophile performance in a compact size
The Motion Foundation B1 is known for delivering an impressively large and spacious soundstage. The speakers utilize the legendary thin-film technologies developed by MartinLogan themselves:
• Gen2 Obsidian Folded Motion Tweeter S (FMT S): This renowned ribbon-like tweeter provides an unparalleled fast response, extreme clarity, and silky highs with no distortion.
• Folded Motion Waveguide: Optimizes the dispersion of sound, minimizing reflections from walls or floors so you can enjoy a wide sweet spot anywhere in the room.
• 5.5-inch (14 cm) aluminum mid-bass driver: The rigid aluminum cone delivers a crystal-clear midrange (perfect for vocals) and surprisingly tight, detailed low-end for a speaker of this size.
Technical specifications:
• Type: 2-way bass-reflex (rear-ported)
• Frequency range: 48 Hz – 23,000 Hz (± 3 dB)
• Sensitivity: 89 dB
• Impedance: 5 Ohms
• Recommended amplifier power: 15 – 100 Watts
• Connection: Premium five-way binding posts
• Dimensions (H x W x D): 34.6 cm x 18.4 cm x 24.05 cm
• Weight: 5.2 kg each
Cosmetic and technical condition:
• Visual state: Mint condition. Because this is a carefully treated demo model, the enclosures and bronze accents are completely free of scratches, dents, or other signs of use. (See the detailed photos for an accurate impression).
• Technical state: 100% perfect. The drivers and tweeters have only run for a few hours and are in top condition.
Shipping and packaging:
The speakers are safely shipped in their original factory packaging, which is additionally sealed and wrapped with a protective film. Shipping always includes tracking and full transport insurance via PostNL.
