What's great about it: It's a MartinLogan
What's not so great: Nada
I auditioned the MartinLogan Vantage towers as well as the ML Stage to upgrade my home theater front stage. Coming from the Klipsch F series, I was astonished at the clarity in which ML speakers present instrument and voice. My main concerns then turned to movie sound reproduction which would require LFE and surrounds.
The front stage was impressive as expected; however, it was the surrounds that took me by surprise. I heard sounds in the reference movie that I never knew existed. By reference, I mean comparing new equipment against my current equipment using well known video and audio media. I had to know more about the surrounds.
The MartinLogan FX Surround is from the Motion series using a folded motion tweeter and 5-1/4" woofer designed to match the timbre of the ESL speaker line, too. The FX is specifically for use as surround effects speaker. The FR covers 74-25000 Hz so they are perfect for your THX reference level system. The speaker comes with a bracket for mounting firmly in a corner (my preference) or a wall.
So, spec-wise, they match up with most very other dipole surround available. If anyone ever designs a clarity specification for audio equipment, then you may never have to set foot in another audio store again. For now, take your reference disc along and audition these speakers for yourself. No review will ever give justice to speakers of this caliber.
