Installation and Placement
The MartinLogan Monument 7XW is designed for installation within a suitable wall cavity, providing outstanding loudspeaker performance without occupying valuable floor space.
Its rotatable Folded Motion XT Obsidian tweeter allows the loudspeaker to be installed vertically or horizontally, making it suitable for a variety of home cinema configurations.
For optimum performance, careful consideration should be given to speaker positioning, listening distances, wall construction, amplification and room acoustics.
Due to the speaker’s substantial size and weight, adequate structural support and installation clearance are essential.
