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.

WOW! These speakers are amazing. I own these speakers for almost a week now and I get amazed by the sound quality, clarity and power of these small speakers every time I turn on my system. I am very satisfied/pleased by these speakers. I would recommend these speakers to anyone who is looking for a quality product for a mid/small size room. I researched a lot of speakers by Mirage MX 5, Energy Classic, Klicph 1000 etc.... but Definitive pro600 always came to the top. The sound is so rich and subwoofer is amazing, it's true not a hype. These speakers also have a solid feel and built quality is top notch. My Denon 1911 is driving these speakers and I am using 16 gauge speaker wires. The set up requires extra step but it's worth it. I would suggest go the store and just listen to them, even at low volumes the sound imaging is excellent; at high volumes you will be blown away! I would also suggest placing a carpet underneath the subwoofer if you have hardwood otherwise your floor will be rattling with rich, deep bass. I replaced my Samsung all in one HT system with this one and all I have to say is this: Instead of hearing the sound...I am feeling the sound with this system. Price is little steep but I have no regrets at all.

OKAY SO WAS SHOPPING AROUND FOR FOR ROUGHLY 3 MONTHS BEFORE I MADE MY PURCHASE I COMPARED THESE TO THE ENERGY TAKE CLASSIC 5.1, AND THE MIRAGE MX 5.1( MY COUSIN HAS THE MIRAGES AND THEY DO SOUND REALLY GOOD,BUT THEY HAVE NO DEDICATED CENTER CHANNEL SPEAKER)I EVENTUALLY FOUND THIS SYSTEM ON EBAY BRAND NEW FOR $549(SORRY AMAZON). I WOULD'VE PAID THE $800 HERE ON ON AMAZON, BUT WHY NOT SAVE A LITTLE $ ON AN OUTSTANDING SYSTEM, THEY REALLY DON'T SOUND LIKE AN ENTRY LEVEL SYSTEM AT ALL, ESPCIALLY NOT ON MY DENON AVR-991. IF YOU'RE IN THE MARKET I WOULD HIGHLY RECCOMEND GIVING THIS SYSTEM A SERIOUS LOOK!!!

I grew tired of my Bose lifestyle speaker system and I did some research and came across this speaker set. Since hookup, I have been really impressed with the sound. I didn't buy my Bose system new, so it's possible that I had a few bad speakers, but wow, the Procinema speakers were worlds better. Specifically the surround speakers sounded much more clear. The Procenter speaker is clear and loud (my Bose Acust didn't have a designated center). The sub is small, relatively, but shakes my floor. The bass is not overbearing but blends well with the other sounds. My only con is the number of banana plugs that are required for hookup. The optimal hookup has the two front speakers going through the sub vice directly to the receiver. This adds another 8 banana plugs.


My setup: 20 x 13ft room with one partially open side. Onkyo HT-RC260 receiver.

I am very pleased with the sound quality and very happy with how they look. This is Def Tech's lowest priced surround sound system and a great choice for someone who does not want to go broke creating a home theatre set up. I have never had a surround sound system but i've heard many, and these measure up well with most. The other speaker systems in this price range are still good but the deal breaker for me was the fact that there is an actual center channel instead of just another satellite speaker. I mounted mine on the wall with the pro 80 mounts which have an awesome design and can be rotated almost anywhere you want. There is also a secure & stable tripod style base to set on your TV stand or a shelf. I plan on adding two pro 800's as my front left and right so I will have a 7.1 surround.

This system is as good or better than the Bose system it replaces. Awesome sound. Crystal clear. Satellite speakers are slightly bigger than the Bose system I had but I didn't realize anyone was as good or better than Bose for about the same price

I purchased these speakers about a month ago with a Denon receiver and they are definitely worth the price. If you watch a lot of movies and want to have spectacular sound I would highly recommend this item. One of the first movies I watched after purchasing this was Transformers on Bluray and it was just a fantastic experience. The whole room was pretty much shaking.

We love these speakers. They don't stand out in the living room, but they have amazing sound. We would buy them again if we had to do it all over.
