Mythos Seven: Maximum Vocals and Special Effects for Your Home Theater

Mythos Center Channel Loudspeakers fulfill all the requirements of truly great center channel speakers, plus they have the extra added bonus of Mythos style and good looks. A center channel loudspeaker is the heavy-lifter of your multichannel home theater sound system. Over 50% of movie soundtrack information in a Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack mix is delivered by the center channel speaker, so it has to be a real workhorse of a loudspeaker.

A great center channel speaker is able to anchor the action to the screen with pinpoint imaging, and the reproduction of a wide range of sounds from whispered dialogue and detailed sound effects to fiery explosions and jet engine effects. It must be voice-matched to the other loudspeakers in the system, utilizing the same driver complement, so that front stage effects are seamless and realistic — when a jet plane flies from left to right across the front sound stage, the character of the sound does not change as it flies from speaker to speaker.

The Mythos Seven Center Channel Loudspeaker deliver all of these performance perks, in a style and look that is the perfect complement not only to your table- or wall- mounted flat screen television, but to the rest of the elegant Mythos Series. They are engineered for high performance in a variety of placement situations, including flush wall-mount placements that are sonically-unforgiving. Mythos Center Channel Loudspeakers deliver a wide dynamic soundstage, for excellent imaging and a much larger "sweet spot" (so everyone in the room hears every detail), with more realism and characteristically remarkable center channel clarity.

Use Mythos Center Channel Loudspeakers to complete your Mythos home theater system built with other Mythos Loudspeaker models of your choice. Combine your Mythos Loudspeakers with a SuperCube Subwoofer or two for the full dynamic effects of thrilling home theater.

Choosing Definitive Technology Speakers for Your Home

Definitive Technology offers many quality speakers that are just right for your home. Which speaker, or set of speakers, you choose depends on how much you are willing to spend and which features you prioritize in a home theater environment. All of Definitive Technology's speakers are audiophile-engineered, designer-styled loudspeakers intended for musical reproduction and home theater systems of the highest quality. Thousands of man-hours of critical listening and engineering utilizing the most advanced computer loudspeaker development programs available--along with fundamental research at the world's most advanced loudspeaker research facility--have combined to create unmatched instruments for the reproduction of music or movies in your home.

	The Mythos Gems are yet another astonishing breakthrough for Definitive Technology and today's state-of-the-art home theater. The Gems make the distinctive Mythos look--an internally braced, hand-polished, aircraft grade Aluminum enclosure--available in superbly designed high performance compact loudspeakers. Because they are voice-matched with the complete Mythos series, they're perfect for use as compact, convenient surround speakers in a system made up of larger Mythos main speakers, or as a complete Gem-only compact high performance home theater system when combined with a Mythos Seven Center Channel Speaker and a SuperCube.
	Mythos Five Tower Loudspeakers combine the elegant look of curved, hand-polished aircraft-grade Aluminum with state-of-the-art engineering technology that delivers the classic level of Definitive Technology sound quality: wide, dynamic soundstage, pinpoint imaging, and superb realism. Packed into these thin towers are proprietary damping technologies that ensure total rigidity, D'Appolito Driver Arrays in narrow PolyStone baffles (voice-matched with whole Mythos line for easy mix-and-match system building), Definitive's exclusive Planar Technology Pressure Driven Bass Radiators to enhance low frequency response, and newly designed Linkwitz-Riley Crossover Networks to more perfectly blend the drivers into a sonically seamless audio environment. Mythos floorstanding tower loudspeakers rise dramatically from unbreakable tempered glass bases that include carpet spikes and rubber feet for stability on any type of flooring.
	Mythos Six Table- and Wall-Mounted Speakers are where the real on-wall magic of Mythos takes place. Nothing complements your new high definition flat screen television with more style, versatility and sheer performance than the beautiful Mythos Series Table- and Wall-Mounting models. Each one comes with easy-to-install mounting hardware that allows them to hang effortlessly on the wall astride your new television, as well as an unbreakable Tempered Glass Base (same as the Mythos Floorstanding Speakers) to give them stability and style when placed next to a table-top television. Their exclusive narrow baffle design, incorporating Definitive's Planar Technology Pressure Driven Bass Radiators to enhance low frequency response, delivers dynamic wide dispersion sound. Mythos Table- and Wall-Mounting models are engineered to be placed flush with the wall and close to the sides of your television (very sonically-unforgiving placements!) and still deliver realistic sound that is accurate and utterly unexpected, with lifelike imaging and remarkable clarity.
	Mythos Seven Center Channel Loudspeakers fulfill all the requirements of truly great center channel speakers, plus they have the extra added bonus of Mythos style and good looks. A center channel loudspeaker is the heavy-lifter of your multichannel home theater sound system. Over 50% of movie soundtrack information in a Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack mix is delivered by the center channel speaker, so it has to be a real workhorse of a loudspeaker. Mythos center channel loudspeakers deliver a wide dynamic soundstage, for excellent imaging and a much larger "sweet spot" (so everyone in the room hears every detail), with more realism and characteristically remarkable center channel clarity.
	SuperCube III Subwoofer: Definitive's SuperCubes are a new breed of powered subwoofers which utilize unique technology and components in order to achieve state-of-the-art performance from remarkably small boxes. Remember, it is important to understand when you are evaluating the SuperCubes that you can not simply compare them to conventional subwoofers based on driver size. Because of their unique technology, the SuperCubes deliver far superior performance to conventional subwoofers which utilize drivers of 50% - 80% larger diameter. Equipped with one 7.5-inch long-throw driver to two 7.5-inch pressure-driven infrasonic bass radiators.

This review is from: Definitive Technology Mythos 7 Center Speaker (Single, Black) (Electronics)

I recently had to change my surround sound set up due to placement of a new flat screen. I purchased the Mythos Seven to replace my Klipsch C2 center channel speaker. I was very impressed with the overall sound quality and the clarity of voices. At times with my old set up voices were hard to hear depending on what was going on in the movie. With the Mythos center I have not had this problem. Also, the size of the speaker was great with my set up. The speaker was small enough to fit on my mantle underneath the TV. I was so impressed with the speakers that I have decided to purchase the Mythos five to compliment the center.

This review is from: Definitive Technology Mythos 7 Center Speaker (Single, Silver) (Electronics)

I needed a low-profile center channel to replace my bulkier DefTech older speaker (ProCenter100) and chose this one based on price and dimensions.

I had no worries about choosing DefTech again b/c I have owned a 5.1 sytem from them since 2000, and have been absolutely satisfied since day one! They also just recently sent me replacement parts at no cost to fix a damaged satellite speaker and the process was exceptional with their customer service department!

Let's face it - If you love GREAT sound and service you can brag about to your friends who aren't audiophile nerds, and you yourself are as close to an audiophile nerd as I am, don't blow your money on other systems/speakers. This is the best sound you will get out of bookshelf speakers compared to anyone else at a great price!

Definitive Technology, you have delivered once again! Thanks-a-million!

I bought this product as a center speaker to accompany a couple of mythos 5 mains. Very happy with the speaker's range and clarity. I don't think that you can go wrong with definitive.
