Product Information
Compact enough to suit any room yet full of sonic presence when it matters, the MartinLogan Foundation F1 speakers punch well above their weight.
Top brand speakers made compact
As the smaller model in the Foundation floorstanding range, the MartinLogan Foundation F1 speakers strike the perfect balance between sonic and physical presence. They make the ideal choice for powerful sound in smaller rooms. Using technically advanced features with MartinLogan’s famed engineering excellence, these speakers demonstrate supreme ability across all musical genres. Packed with refined detail at the top end, a natural mid-range and a punchy, upbeat bass, the Foundation F1’s satisfy on every level.
Stunning top-end sound
Renowned for their top-end detail and exceptional articulation, MartinLogan soar above ordinary speakers. Using folded, thin-film material, the Gen2 FMT 2 tweeters have a large surface area, light weight and low excursion. This means that you get a nuanced and incredibly lifelike treble response, with sumptuous detail. For a smooth and consistent response, across a wider seating area, Folded Motion Waveguides direct the sound with precision.
Breathtaking vocals
Featuring trickle down technology from MartinLogan’s Motion speakers, the F1 uses an aluminium, unibody cone. Mounted in a non-resonant, sealed chamber it ensures smooth and articulate vocals, with breathtaking detail.
Richly balanced and perfectly timed bass
For great bass from a compact design, the Foundation F1 uses a triple woofer array. The combined effect of using three woofers means that the bass drops further than you might expect for such a room-friendly speaker design. For the best room integration, the woofers are placed as low in the cabinet as possible. Like the midrange driver, the woofers feature aluminium, unibody construction for a focused and fast-paced response.
Timeless design
For the best fit with your room, the F1 speakers are available in black or walnut. Subtle detailing, such as bronze and gunmetal driver trim, gives these speakers a premium finish to match their sound. Stealth-lock grilles hold the grilles firmly in place, while maintaining smooth aesthetics with the grilles removed.

For wireless connectivity, MartinLogan offers the optional WSK-1 kit. Consisting of a wireless transmitter and receiver, set up is easy. With a USB 5V power input, the units can often be powered from a compatible AVR and subwoofer.
