Definitive Technology Speaker Reviews

"When you get one to two dozen disks to review, you look for interesting combinations to keep things interesting...especially if it got in the way of a good story...These two latest DVD sets will definitely add to the Dylan mythos, especially Todd Haynes’ sorta bio-pic/documentary on the man...The film itself is a semi-surreal evaluation of the former Robert Alan Zimmerman’s life story, based loosely on stories Dylan used to tell about himself and the overall folklore spread about the man..." read more »

"Optimum surround sound home theater reproduction places heavy demands on the center channel speaker, which in many respects is the main speaker in the system and often handles 50% or more of the program material...The revolutionary C/L/R2300 features a powerful built-in 8 inch powered subwoofer driven by a 150 Watt digital amplifier...With the C/L/R2300 you will fully realize the performance potential of the center channel program material as the movie director intended it to be heard...The crossover network of a loudspeaker is the real heart of the system..." read more »

"BP10B bipolar speaker uses both front- and rear-firing driver arrays to radiate full-range sound in an omni-directional pattern...The BP10B pairs well with Definitive's C/L/R2002 center channel speaker, BPX and BP2X bipolar surround speakers, or StudioMonitor 450 bookshelf speakers...Considered one of the world's finest loudspeakers, the BP10B's combination of full-range bipolar technology..." read more »

"Our least expensive tower, the astonishing BP6B, brings all the dramatic benefits and sonic superiority of full-range bipolar technology to a new level of affordability...The goal of the Definitive design team was to create state-of-the-art loudspeakers which offered unsurpassed sophisticated technology and lifelike musical and cinematic reproduction combined in sleek and stylish designs which could be easily and attractively placed in your home environment...Thousands of man-hours of critical listening, design processes utilizing the most advanced computer loudspeaker development programs available and proprietary engineering investigations at the NRC (the world's most advanced loudspeaker research facility) have combined to produce loudspeakers like no other in the world...The sophisticated Linkwitz-Riley designs used in the BP10B, BP8B, and BP6B equalize the drivers for linear phase and Frequency response..." read more »

"Photo Gallery Technology aside, the ST also carries a recommendation for serious two-channel music listening — a point proven by its demonstration...•Tall image for some layouts •Still requires a serious sub for full-bore bottom-octave...The Mythos ST speaker also deploys a so-called D'Appolito array of two midranges vertically sandwiching a metal-dome tweeter — plus three "racetrack" drivers, obviously chosen to allow a very narrow, low-diffraction..." read more »

"Definitive Technology’s svelte Mythos STS SuperTower speaker belts out the big sound and big bass, despite its thin look...In case you haven’t noticed, oh-so-boring speaker boxes are out, and deliciously curvaceous cabinets are in...Definitive Tech’s speakers are always exceptional performers, but STS engineers pushed the limits of what’s possible in a lifestyle-friendly design...That’s a bummer, but for those who can live without the pleasures of maple, cherry or walnut, the Mythos STS will deliver tremendous performance, equally adept with both music and movies..." read more »

"Apple is one of the few companies that melds these two feats together for beautiful industrial design and blazingly fast operation...The speakers are also available in black, but I recommend the polished aluminum, especially when mated with a plasma monitor...The tone of the system was very neutral, which I assure you is a good thing..." read more »

"The Xigmatek HDT-S963 heatsink is a unique thermal solution because the German thermal engineers who designed it, made its three copper heatpipes come in direct contact with the CPU itself...If you take the Xigmatek HDT-S963 in hand and flip it over, you'll see an aluminum base with three long grooves cut into it...There is no bulky copper base plate, no heavy copper heat spreader, instead heat is conducted directly from the core of an AMD or Intel processor to three 6mm diameter copper heatpipes...If the approach Xigmatek has taken here works, and Frostytech will be able to give a definitive answer on that in two pages time, expect to see this technique expropriated by every heatsink vendor from Thermaltake to Coolermaster come fall..." read more »
