Thank you for your question! **Q: Do they include wires? If not, which kind should we buy?** A: If by wires you mean speaker cord to hook up to both the speakers and the receiver/amplifier, then the answer is 1) they do not come with wires and 2) you can buy wire from a department store specifically sold for this purpose or a hardware/home improvement store for wire normally used for appliances (called lampcord, etc) cut to the lengths you desire. I would go with a size no less than 16 gauge for up to 25 feet each or about 8 meters. If you have a really powerful Amp, capable of providing more than 25 Amps per speaker, then use 14 gauge or thicker cord, for example something like the Monster brand, although it could get too expensive.The ML 15s are nice little speakers and relatively efficient, so using at least 16 gauge should be satisfactory. In my opinion, as people will disagree, I do not see any benefit going much thicker than a 14 gauge wire, unless you want to spend more than you have to. Some "audiophiles" might disagree with this, but there isn't really any noticeable difference in sound and most receivers pump out less than 25 amps per speaker output. More "real" expensive equipment (power amps) are capable of 30 amps/channel on up. **Q: where is this speaker made?** A: I believe they Manufacture them in Canada and China as well. **Q: Is there a keyhole on the back?** A: Thanks for your inquiry. The Motion 15 speakers have a 3/18-16 threaded insert on the back for wall or stand mounting, but they do not have a keyhole. Please let us know if you have any other questions! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful craftsmanship without sacrificing sound *by D***M on June 22, 2014* I feel like there's two camps of speaker manufacturers out there. One is obsessed with making their speakers look eye-catching with fancy finishes, unique cabinet designs, colored and textured cones, unusual grilles, and so on -- but no money is spent on engineering the speakers to sound good. The other camp of manufacturers doesn't spend a dime on styling the speakers, and cranks out some hideous cabinets that sound like they cost ten times what they really do.MartinLogan, in my opinion, is proving that you can do both...without requiring a second mortgage on your house. I auditioned the Motion 15s (and the rest of the Motion offering) at a local audio store and was immediately blown away with the clarity. The folded ribbon tweeter does live up to the hype and provides very accurate and crisp sound without being harsh or shrill like some of the horn designs. Not only do those tweeters sound accurate, but they also create a very big soundstage. The 5.25" woofers are not going to win any contests with bass-lovers and those wanting to feel every explosion in a movie. The woofers will, however, sound reasonably full and punchy, and play well with the tweeter. When paired with a subwoofer, and properly crossed-over, you can expect very wide frequency response from a 2.1 or 3.1 setup of these speakers.Of course, the finish and build quality is exceptional. As soon as you pull it from the box you can immediately tell this is not only a solidly-built speaker, but a beautiful one too. The piano black is sophisticated and high-tech without looking too sterile, and I think it adds some visual interest to just about any room. I believe that decorators will tell you "every room needs something black", and I think these fit the bill nicely. While they are fingerprint magnets, it's not difficult to (A) tell your guests not to touch them and (B) wipe them down with a soft cloth. Although some will not like the industrial-looking metal grilles, I think they look far better than some cheap black fabric ones would. They are of course removable and held on with tiny magnets. My advice is to just leave them on to protect the woofer and tweeter.MartinLogan does a nice job of packaging the speaker safely and includes the necessary isolation feet, instructional manual, warranty card, and microfibre cloth. The speaker even comes double-wrapped in a lint-free bag (to protect the finish) and a plastic bag to shield it from moisture or debris. As an aside, I will say that the cherry rosewood color (a deep, rich red woodgrain) is easily worth the extra $25-50/speaker if it matches the rest of your furniture and decorating. The cherry is even more beautiful and eye-catching than these! The gloss white is interesting as well, and probably best suited for a small bookshelf setup.Just a heads-up to potential owners: these are 5-ohm speakers. You don't need a special amplifier or AV receiver to drive them, but this 5-ohm rating means they will try to pull a lot of juice from your amp. Cheaper amps will struggle to output clean sound at high volumes, which can be damaging to the speakers. If you have a mediocre amp setup, I would advice caution against really cranking these to full volume. Good monoblock amplifiers can be had for $100-$125 each in the used market and they will really let these Motion 15s sing like they should.As you can tell, I am enamored with the MartinLogan Motion 15 speakers. Sound is very subjective, but everyone who experiences them in my home becomes a big fan. Even the local audio shop guys were snickering about how "[they've] got another MartinLogan convert". ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent sound from small speakers - highly recommended! *by R***. on February 11, 2017* I bought these after auditioning them twice at two different stores with different setups and different amps, and also after reading a lot of reviews of these speakers on-line. I very glad I did. I have mine connected to a Sonos CONNECT:AMP in my office which is a fairly small room. Will try them on my Rotel amp later and will update the review if there is a major difference in sound quality. The show rooms in the stores were much bigger, and the speakers were much further apart from each other, so I was worried that I won't be able to get the same sound stage with them sitting close to me on my computer desk, and also with speakers being fairly close to each other (around 3.5 ft). For reference, in my living room for my main music listening setup I use Bowers & Wilkins speakers, and before those I had Paradigm reference speakers. I am amazed at the great sound from these little speakers! I am not using a Sub, and for my small room, that has not been an issue. There is sufficient bass, and the sound is clear and full. I can't get enough of the vocal reproduction with these speakers - velvety clear, open, and smooth. I am playing lossless 16/44.1 CD quality or 24/96 Hi-Res digital audio from my computer through these (sound card supports up to 24/192), but I tried a few lower res AAC files and they sounded great. But the clarity of the sound of these speakers means if you listen carefully, you'd notice the difference between lossless and lossy music, so it's now tough to listen to my lower quality music! As everyone else has stated, the black piano finish is beautiful and stands out, even for such small speakers. I am going through all my library, re-listening to songs I've heard many, many times before, and through these speakers, they sound so much better. For the price, I can't imagine there would be better speakers. Highly recommended. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Decent for the money, but lack bass! *by S***R on December 17, 2013* These are well made and very good looking speakers but they are very very light on bass and I ran them with a Musical Fidelity Tri Vista 300 that puts out 600 WPS into 4 ohms and 300 into 8. The highs were smooth and silky though, and they excelled with vocal but anything with music or complex passages muddied them up. ## Frequently Bought Together - MartinLogan Motion 15 Gloss White Bookshelf Loudspeaker - FosPower Banana Plugs 12 Pairs / 24 pcs, Closed Screw 24K Gold Plated Speaker Plug Connectors for Speaker Wire, Wall Plate, Home Theater, Audio/Video Receiver, Amplifiers and Sound Systems - MartinLogan Motion 8i Center Channel Speaker, Single Speaker (Gloss Black) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/2726687-martinlogan-motion-15-gloss-white-bookshelf-loudspeaker](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/2726687-martinlogan-motion-15-gloss-white-bookshelf-loudspeaker) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-15*
