Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Enjoy a superior home theater audio performance without investing in expensive and space-consuming loudspeakers with the six-piece Definitive Technology ProCinema 600 system. It includes four ProMonitor 600 satellite speakers, a ProCenter 600 center channel speaker, and a 250-watt ProSub 600 subwoofer that's powered by Definitive's SuperCube technology. The ProCinema 600 is a compact, entry-level home theater system with a surprisingly affordable price that belies a remarkable sophistication.

Mid/bass radiator on top of the satellite delivers stronger lower-midrange response for more natural sound

Satellites can be shelf-mounted with their unique tri-lobed base

ProCinema 600--An Affordable Miracle

The ProCinema 600 System is Definitive's most affordable 6-piece home theater system, incorporating 4 identical easy to place satellite speakers for front and surround channels, a matching center channel loudspeaker, and a robust powered subwoofer. But don't let its small size and affordable price fool you--the ProCinema is a remarkably sophisticated system with huge sound. The system's components incorporate many of the same technologies as Definitive's top-of-the-line models including Balaned Double Surround System (BDSS) drivers, pure aluminum dome tweeters, planar pressure-coupled mid/bass radiators, and a 250-watt powered subwoofer for home theater sound quality that will astound your friends and family when they hear your system for the first time. The ProCinema 600 is available in black or white to match any home theater design.

The Secret to A Big Sound

Competing satellite speakers of this size usually have weak lower-midrange response; that part of the audio range that contains the "warmth" and "body" of voices and musical instruments. The ProCinema satellites avoid this critical problem in the key vocal range by pressure-coupling an 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. You'll enjoy the kind of rich, warm and life-like sound quality that you thought was only possible with big, hard to place speakers.

The ProCenter 600 features two BDSS drivers, allowing it to play loud and clear

Adjusting the ProSub 600 output is easy with side-mounted volume control

Center Channel Muscle

As much as 75% of a movie's soundtrack is played by the center channel loudspeaker, making it arguably the most important speaker in a home theater system. It's the key to getting intelligible dialogue and true-to-life sound effects, so extra attention was lavished on the ProCinema 600's center speaker. It features two of the same BDSS drivers as the satellites along with two mid/bass radiators on the sides of the enclosure, allowing it to play loud and clear with high tonal accuracy.

Big Beefy Bass

The Low Frequency Effects (LFE) of a movie's soundtrack bring excitement, realism and just plain fun to action, adventure, and sci-fi movies. Worry not, Definitive has bass down pat. The ProCinema 600's subwoofer features a 250-watt amplifier driving a high-excursion 8-inch woofer that is pressure-coupled to an 8-inch Low Bass radiator on the bottom of the enclosure. The net radiating area of the 600's subwoofer is 27% greater than a conventional 10-inch woofer but with better speed, pitch definition, and control.

Easy to Place, Easy to Use

Small enough to disappear in a room but beautiful when in plain view, the 600's satellites can be shelf-mounted with their unique tri-lobed base, wall-mounted using the built-in keyhole mount, or using the optional ProMount 80 pivot mount or stand with optional floor stands (sold separately). The center channel speaker has an adjustable foot for shelf mounting or can be wall-mounted using two optional ProMount 80 articulating brackets.

The sub volume control is placed on the side of the subwoofer's enclosure to make adjusting the subwoofer's output as easy as possible.

The Sound

Sonically, the ProCinema 600 System is a revelation in terms of achieving incredible sound at an affordable price. The imaging is absolutely boxless, spacious, and three dimensional while delivering pinpoint specificity and localization when called for. They are velvety-smooth with you-are-there presence which is hard to find at any price and unheard of in this price range. The ProCinema 600 system is dynamic but capable of great subtlety, so it excels equally with music or movies.

5.0 out of 5 stars These are the speakers to buy!, April 29, 2009

This review is from: Definitive Technology ProCinema 600 5.1 Speaker System (Set of Six, Black) (Electronics)

Let me start by saying I research everything extensively before I buy it, especially home audio. I initially thought I wanted bose acoustimass, but all the reviews were mixed. My biggest criteria was small speakers. I previously had tower Sonys and bose surround, but was ready for a more hidden look. I whittled the research down to mirage nanosats or these. I was skeptical spending $600+ without hearing them and went to the local best buy where I could listen to both. They both sound great, but the definitive sounded a bit fuller and I couldn't get used to the nanosats. Setup is a bit odd, but well worth the sound. Plenty of tight bass, but not too boomy and the mids and highs are clear and lifelike.

Fantastic sound, you won't be upset with this purchase!!

Great sound, very attractive, nice solid weight to the speakers, definitly not cheap flimsy crap!! Easy to set up although they recommend your front speakers plug into the Sub and not straight from your receiver. Nice seperation of sound, very impressed. Would buy these all over again!!

Get the floor stands, very solid and worth the $99 a pair.

All speakers come with Bannana type plugs that plug in or you can unscrew and feed wire in. I found a great deal on Amazon for gold plugs by Dayton and made my own cables with 14 guage wire, much cleaner install than straight wire.

I'm no audio/stereophile, but these speakers sound great in my small-medium sized room. The packaging was really well done (they fit everything in there nice and tight) and the speakers themselves are good-looking and discreet. The subwoofer has a lot of power and a very easy to reach volume control. These plugged right in to my Denon receiver and sounds great! I'd recommend.
