Peak Power Handling: 100 watts (The maximum amount of power an electronic device, like a speaker, can handle without damage. This refers to short bursts of power, while root mean square (RMS) power handling indicates the amount of continuous power a device can sustain. Higher levels of distortion can also occur at peak power levels when the device is powered beyond its recommended usage.)

Minimum Frequency Response: 100 hertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The minimum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
Maximum Frequency Response: 20 kilohertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones.

ATMOS A60 For That Missing Piece
I talked myself into buying these "elevation module" speakers designed specifically for the Dolby ATMOS decoding and playback channel in movies produced for that source. They also fit perfectly on top of the BP8060ST super towers I was purchasing. Once I heard the difference with and without these add-on speakers I was sold on the benefit of that added piece. The theory behind these is that the drivers are pointed up at the ceiling at a slight angle and then the sound is reflected off the ceiling and comes toward you from above. It is amazing when you hear the channel in a movie when there is rain or planes flying from the foreground to the background. Since they fit right on top of my towers, it was a no-brainer for me. I am glad to have spent a little more for this piece that has always been missing in my listening experience. If your ceiling is any higher than about 10 feet the effect will be slightly diminished but still there.

Great Speakers for ATMOS..
I purchased these speakers for my older Definitive Technology towers from about 6 years ago (model BP 7006 Bipolar). These towers are only 11.5 inches deep and the ATMOS speakers here are 13 inches. I stuck some rubber feet under the base of them based on a recommendation from an online review I read somewhere else. I used rubber feet from a company named Isolate It (go on Amazon and look up Sorbothane Hemisphere…I used the 1" with 50 durometer). They stick great to the bottom and I can tell you that I have had my towers rocking out with the internal subs kicking and these top ATMOS speakers haven't moved or even come close to falling off at all. Of course, not many ATMOS enabled movies out yet (VUDU steams some titles). These speakers wee originally $500/pair and have recently been cut to only $300/pair. If you have reservations about getting them because you don't have the BP8060 speakers that they should attach to don't be afraid to try them anyway. Get those rubber spongy feet I mentioned and you will be fine.

I just keep upgrading with Def Tech
I purchased the 8040s and loved them so much in my second audio system, I decided to pull the trigger on the 8060s. In my case, bigger was not better - in my home office, the 8060s were huge and just not as enjoyable as the 8040s... However, once i put them out in my large and open loft, these babies sang! You definitely need the breathing room. I started a home theater up there and right now am using an XBOX as my front end. CDs sound great (and I'm an analog guy...). I purchased the A-60 extensions as well. I will be moving to an ATMOS capable receiver soon. I really can't say enough good things about Def Tech speakers.
