The Motive range was introduced in 2005 and revamped in 2013.

1) To deliver exceptional performance from compact and attractive contemporary cabinets.

2) Easy-to-drive designs with a consistent and coherent sound across the range.

3) High standard of AV/multi-channel performance.

The Motive range was a significant development for Neat as it marked the entry into the more mainstream market which was largely dominated by much bigger manufacturers. A new tweeter was developed for this range, loosely based on the inverted titanium dome used in the original Ultimatum models. This tweeter offers a very detailed, uncompressed performance and gives the Motive models a level of dynamic and micro-dynamic insight unrivalled at its price point.

The entire Motive range was revised to the ‘SX’ status in 2013 using an improved version of the NMT tweeter – the SXT. The SXT tweeter employs the same massive magnet system, but with an anodised aluminium dome replacing the previous titanium dome. The crossovers, tuning and internals have also been updated, resulting in a wide-ranging improvement in all-round performance.

At only 76cm high, the Motive SE2 is a beautifully compact floorstander which takes the ingredients of the Motive 2 design several steps further to offer a genuinely stunning performance.

Only available by special order.

A two-way, bass reflex design with the same port and plinth arrangement as the Motive 2. The plinth offers a stable platform for the speaker whilst providing a slight backward tilt to maintain the ideal angle for optimum performance.

The tweeter is a new version of the classic EMIT planar-magnetic unit also featured in the prestige Ultimatum models. Here it is compliantly mounted within its own discrete cavity using a new enhanced crossover network.

The bass/mid drive unit also operates in its own internal space, with a revised tuning to deliver tighter control of bass frequencies.
