Definitive Technology Dymension DM70

 

Big sound from a high-tech "powered tower"

The Dymension DM70 continues Definitive Technology's tradition of building large tower speakers that pack serious punch. This floor-stander uses a high-tech bipolar array with front- and rear-firing drivers for sound that's especially spacious and three-dimensional, whether you use it for home theater or stereo music. Plus, its built-in 10" powered subwoofer delivers deep, hard-hitting bass that's perfectly blended with the midrange and high frequencies.

Definitive Technology Dymension DM70 Front

Fully balanced front- and rear-firing drivers

Most speakers only have drivers that face forward, toward the listener. Definitive's DM70 features one set of forward-facing drivers that deliver clear, focused detail: a 1" aluminum oxide dome tweeter and dual 5-1/4" woofers. On the back, a second set of identical drivers fires in the opposite direction. These extra drivers help create a bubble of sound that's big, wide, and involving.

A rear-panel switch lets you toggle between two settings:

  • "full bipolar" sound profile — the front and rear drivers both produce the same volume level, for more ambient, reflected room sound
  • "forward-focused" profile — sets the rear drivers firing at roughly half the volume (-6dB), which puts emphasis on pinpoint instrument and sound localization

A 10" built-in sub brings the bass

The bottom section of the speaker houses a side-firing 10" subwoofer plus a pair of mechanically coupled 10" passive bass radiators. Definitive calls this arrangement 3XR™ Architecture, because it provides three times the sound-radiating surface area compared to more standard subwoofer designs. It allows better control over the low frequencies and reduces the potential for noise and unwanted resonances that can happen with port tube designs. Bottom line: deep, precise bass that eliminates the need for a separate subwoofer.

(Note: when you're using a pair of these towers, the subwoofer will fire to the left on both speakers, and the bass remains well-balanced.)

Built-in sub amp with Intelligent Bass Control

The Dymension DM70's built-in 180-watt Class D subwoofer amplifier drives the active 10" woofer for deep, authoritative bass. Use the rear-panel knob to set the subwoofer level according to your preference. Definitive's patented Intelligent Bass Control keeps the upper bass and midrange from ever getting muddy, even when you crank it.

Add-on height module for Dolby Atmos®

Looking to take your surround sound to new heights? The matching DM90 speaker module (sold separately) fits perfectly on top of the floor-standing DM70's cabinet. Use it with your Dolby Atmos home thater reciever's height channels to add a vertical dimension to your surround sound, for an even more enveloping soundstage. The DM90 module snaps into the top of the matching tower speaker for convenient signal connections and secure mounting. From there, it literally bounces height-channel sound effects off the ceiling and back down to your listening position.
