MartinLogan Statement 40XW In-Wall Speaker

Description

About the MartinLogan Statement 40XW In-Wall Speaker

The MartinLogan Statement 40XW In-Wall Speaker is one of the most impressive in-wall speakers available for high-end installations.

What sets it apart is its ability to deliver MartinLogan’s signature speed and transparency in a concealed design. The Folded Motion XT tweeter produces incredibly detailed, open highs, while the multiple bass drivers provide depth and authority that you wouldn’t normally expect from an in-wall speaker.

This is not a typical architectural speaker. The 40XW is designed for customers who want reference-level performance without visible speakers, making it ideal for premium home theatres and high-end multi-room systems.
