Overview
Built as a center channel, this MartinLogan 50XTi pairs a 6.5 inch driver with coaxial connectivity and a tabletop mounting design.
As a center channel, this speaker is built to sit below or above a TV screen and carry dialogue in a surround setup, rather than serve as a standalone main speaker or a subwoofer. Its tabletop mounting fits placement on a stand or shelf rather than wall or ceiling installation. MartinLogan positions its center channels to match the tonal character of its floor-standing speakers in a full room system.
- 6.5 inch center channel driver
- Coaxial connectivity
- Tabletop mounting design
- 30.5 lb, black finish
Who it's for
Buyers assembling or completing a MartinLogan surround system who need a dedicated center channel for dialogue. Not a fit for anyone wanting a standalone speaker or a wall or ceiling mount, since this is built for tabletop placement below or above a screen.
Pros and cons
- Dedicated center channel for dialogue clarity
- Tabletop mount fits below or above a TV
- Tabletop mount only, not wall or ceiling
- Zero recent purchase volume shown
Performance notes
As a center channel, the 6.5 inch driver is sized to carry dialogue and midrange detail clearly across a room rather than deliver deep bass, which is typically handled by a separate subwoofer in a full system. Coaxial connectivity ties it into a receiver-based setup.
