    Will dipole midrange on Motion 12 create problems in asymmetric room?

    You're absolutely right about the couch. When I was testing the speaker at BB, I put my knapsack in front of the right speaker to simulate the couch. I was in BB again and the associate there pulled out one of the speakers so it's back was 45 degrees to the open door to simulate my situation...

    Will dipole midrange on Motion 12 create problems in asymmetric room?

    I am looking at the Motion 12's but I am worried that I have an oddly shaped room to utilize the dipole midrange. The room is 16 ft by 20 ft but the wall on which the TV must go is just half of a 16 ft side. A wide-angle picture is below. First, the speaker placement in the room is not...

    Center & surrounds for ML Motion 12? Receiver?

    I did not know that but I should have guessed. I was testing at BB, running 2 - 12's, 1 - 8 and 2 - 4's in the rear. I changed the RX-A800 to the 6 ohm mode and the speakers seemed to lose some brilliance - and it still became pretty hot. I will go the opposite direction and try the speakers...

    Center & surrounds for ML Motion 12? Receiver?

    When running the 2 Motion 12's, Motion 8, and 2 Motion 2's, the Yamaha RX-A800 (similar to mine) needed to run at the -5 to -3 level. Will pulling this much power through the receiver stress it or cause distortions? Thanks.

    Center & surrounds for ML Motion 12? Receiver?

    I am considering the purchase of a pair of MartinLogan Motion 12's. The living room is 15 x 17. One of the 15 foot sides has an 8 foot wall with the rest open to a kitchen. The AV equipment will go on the 8 foot wall and people will sit in that half of the room. The usage will be 70/30 HT/music...
