Definitive Technology Procinema 1000 Plus 5.1Ch System (Black)

Feature 

Promonitor 1000 Satellite Speaker

Pressure Coupled Radiator Design: 

• The ProMonitor satellite provides clear, high-definition sound by pressure-coupling Definitive's exclusive BDSS technology driver to an equal-sized mid/bass radiator cleverly placed on the top of the satellite.
• This technique doubles the lower-midrange radiating area of the speaker without increasing the size of the enclosure.
• The result is a warm and life-like sound.

BDSS Technology: 

• Definitive Technology's Balanced Double Surround System (BDSS) drivers offers a wide-bandwidth accurate frequency response, broad dispersion, low distortion, and detail retrieval; so you hear more the music with greater accuracy and enjoyment.
• BDSS drivers incorporate the following design features.

Balanced Double Surrounds: 

• The speaker's balanced double surrounds support the cone at two points to provide better mechanical stability for longer, more linear excursion, and improved damping to suppress parasitic cone resonance.

Mineral-Filled Polymer Cone: 

• The ProMonitor features a deeply drawn mineral-filled polymer cone engineered using sophisticated 3D modeling techniques for wide range performance.

Waveguide: 

• The cone's integrated waveguide smoothes off-axis response for broad, even dispersion and better imaging.

High Temperature Voice Coil: 

• The driver's high temperature, oversized, lightweight vented voice coil offers improved power handling and quick transient response.
• The Lengthened voice coil also offers increased linearity and lower distortion.

Magnet Structure: 

• The driver's magnetic system is optimized by finite element analysis to maximize magnetic flux in the gap for high efficiency and linear excursion.

Die-Cast Alloy Basket: 

• The die-cast alloy basket minimizes ringing and vibration while the open area minimizes back wave reflection.

Procenter 2000 Center Channel Speaker

Pressure Coupled Radiator Design:

• The ProMonitor center-channel speaker provides clear, high-definition sound by pressure-coupling Definitive's exclusive BDSS technology drivers to two equal-sized mid/bass radiators cleverly placed on the sides of the center-speaker.
• This technique doubles the lower-midrange radiating area of the speaker without increasing the size of the enclosure.
• The result is a warm and life-like sound.

BDSS Technology: 

• Definitive Technology's Balanced Double Surround System (BDSS) driver offers a wide-bandwidth accurate frequency response, broad dispersion, low distortion, and detail retrieval; so you hear more the music with greater accuracy and enjoyment.
• BDSS drivers incorporate the following design features.

Balanced Double Surrounds: 

• The speaker's balanced double surrounds support the cone at two points to provide better mechanical stability for longer, more linear excursion, and improved damping to suppress parasitic cone resonance.

Mineral-Filled Polymer Cone: 

• The ProCenter 2000 features a deeply drawn mineral-filled polymer cone engineered using sophisticated 3D modeling techniques for wide range performance.

Waveguide: 

• The cone's integrated waveguide smoothes off-axis response for broad, even dispersion and better imaging.

Die-Cast Alloy Basket: 

• The die-cast alloy basket minimizes ringing and vibration while the open area minimizes back wave reflection.

Drivers:

• The Definitive Technology ProCenter 2000 features two 5-1/4" BDSS driver coupled to two side-firing 5-1/4" pressure-driven planar low-frequency radiators, and a 1" pure aluminum dome tweeter.

Break-In Period: 

• The ProCenter 2000 loudspeaker will sound good right out of the box; however, an extended break-in period of 20-40 hours or more of playing is required to reach full performance capability.
• The break-in period allows the suspensions to work in and results in full bass, a more open midrange, and smoother high frequency reproduction.

Prosub 1000 subwoofer:

Passive Radiator Design: 

• The ProSub 1000 features a 300-watt (RMS) amplifier driving a high-excursion 10-inch front-mounted direct-radiating woofer that is pressure-coupled to a 10-inch low-bass passive radiator on the bottom of the enclosure.
• The net radiating area of the ProSub 1000 is 39% greater than a single 12 inch woofer but with better speed, pitch definition, and control.

PowerField Technology Amplifier: 

• The ProSub 1000 incorporates Definitive's proprietary PowerField technology, by which the amplifier is specifically engineered in conjunction with the driver for optimum load matching and power transfer characteristics.
• The Definitive ProSub 1000 powered subwoofer incorporates a unique, patented, digitally-coupled infinite power source amplifier with a high-current direct coupled power supply and discrete MOSFET output devices to ensure perfect high-definition resolution and reproduction of the most dynamic program material and demanding sub-bass transients.
• Construction quality is absolutely state-of-the-art, with only the highest quality components used including mil-spec glass epoxy circuit boards and precision resistors and capacitors for many years of faultless superior performance.

High-Definition Subwoofer: 

• The powerful, high-definition 10" polymer subwoofer driver is specifically engineered by Definitive Technology to deliver rock-solid low distortion bass, reaching down to the lowest subsonic frequencies (18-150Hz), with superior transient response.
• The special ultra-stiff, low-mass cone (for super-fast transient response) is joined to a specially formulated surround and long-throw voice coil and spider.
• The ultra-rigid basket is engineered to hold the woofer's massive magnet structure and large voice coil in absolute alignment.
• The high temperature voice coil is made of aluminum wound with triple insulated ultra-pure copper wire and baked in epoxy for increased power handling.

Non-Resonant Cabinet: 

• The cabinet of a loudspeaker plays a large part in its sonic performance. Resonance and vibration can add unwanted distortion as well as drain away important energy from the system.
• The Definitive Technology ProSub 1000 powered subwoofer utilizes a monocoque cabinet, which has been specifically engineered to be totally inert and vibration free, to ensure you of pure sonic reproduction.
• Monocoque means that the cabinet is of a unitized construction where all panels are permanently joined together into one solid structure.
• The cabinet walls themselves are high-density medite fused together by space-age polymer adhesives.
• The front and rear baffles are extra thick and the cabinet, itself, incorporates multiple internal braces to ensure total solidity.

Protection Circuits: 

• The Definitive Technology ProSub 1000 features two protection circuits that ensure that the subwoofer can never be overdriven.

Integrated/Adjustable Feet: 

• The ProSub 1000 features four integrated feet with rubber tips so you can place it securely and safely on your home's floor.
• Each foot's height is adjustable to help you place the powered sub on an uneven surface.

Placement: 

• The Definitive Technology powered subwoofer has been designed to operate at frequencies generally below 150 Hz.
• Because low-frequency information in this range essentially is non-directional, your subwoofer can be located anywhere in your listening room that is most convenient.
• Also the continuously variable low-pass filter operate at a very fast roll-off, ensuring great performance wherever you place the subwoofer.
• There are, however, some general rules that you should bear in mind when locating the powered sub.
• For maximum output the subwoofer should be placed in a corner or against the wall.
• Corner placement will increase the subwoofer's efficiency, which in turn will increase your system's maximum output and improve the dynamic capability of the subwoofer.
