Better Than Bose September 15, 2009

I recently sold my house and included my Bose Acoustimass 10 speaker system with the media room. I researched for many days and even considered buying another Bose set. After looking at CNET reviews (Bose was not listed in the top 10), I decided to buy the Pro Cinema 800 set. But instead of the 8" subwoofer I bought the 10" subwoofer. I bought all the speakers seperately (no cost savings buying the package) including my 10" Definitive subwoofer. The satellites are a lot bigger than the Bose satellites and this helps them reproduce a fuller spectrum of sound. The sound coming from the Pro 800 are more rich and full. On the top is a passive radiator that works in tandem with the woofer to help radiate lower frequencies (these speakers are acoustically suspended). The stand on the bottom is removable and there is an included plug to cover the mounting hole if you are mounting them on wall mounts (each speaker weighs about 4 pounds). The back has binding post connectors with banana conntor receptacle (female). These speakers definitely out perform my old Bose Acoustimass 10 speaker set and cost about the same. For the money, you can't go wrong with this set.
Pros:
- High gloss finish
- Quality construction
- Passive radiator
- Rich crisp sound
- Included stand
Cons:
- Would be nice in documentation to add recommend cross over frequency with sub woofer
Great Speakers and So Small August 26, 2009
Peter Ly (Ventura, CA United States)
When these speakers arrived, I somehow felt disappointed. I knew the dimensions before I bought them, but it somehow didn't hit me until I actually saw them. I even double-checked the speaker label to make sure I didn't get the wrong speakers by mistakes. Well, after an hour or so to set them up, I was pleasantly surprised by how good they sound. It's unbelievable such full range sound can come from such small speakers. I watched Kill Bill 1 and listened to some CDs w/o running then Audessy setup and it sounded good. I ran the Audessy setup and listened to other CDs and watched Donnie Darko and it sounded amazing. During some scenes on Donnie Darko where the music was emphasized, I couldn't believe how enveloping the sound was. Definitely no regrets with these Definitive Tech speakers.
Excellent speakers August 9, 2009

I use two 800's for my rear surround speakers and they don't disappoint. Excellent sound reproduction and bass output. Better than my old Bose was!
Wonderful, compact speaker May 12, 2009

Very satisfied with the sound of these small speakers, and I would consider myself a very discerning audiophile. I combined them with the Pro Sub 800 for a wonderful sound in my home-office. If you listen to classical music, this set-up delivers fantastic value for sound.
Highly Recommended March 11, 2009

A well designed, high quality product. Works perfectly in a 5.1 or 7.1 system in smaller rooms with a ProSub 800 and ProCenter 1000. Exceptional sound for the money.
