Compact, wide range speaker
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.With limited verticle space, I was seeking a compact center channel speaker that could handle the output from a Denon X3000 7.2 amp. It is paired with a set of Klipsch up front. For balance, the amp setting is booster for ProCenter 1000 by about 2 dB over the Klipsch. My comparables are a Sony HT-ST9 Sound Bar and a 20-yr old Infinity with dual 5" drivers. As expected, the ProCenter 1000 is lighter on the audio depth but far superior to the sound bar. Voice clarity is there, but that really depends on the movie sound track (which seems quite variable from Charter cable) with some movies driving more into the bass (subs) and surround tracks; or perhaps I need to twerk my settings a bit more. The fit and finish are superb! Overall, I'm satisfied with this purchase.

Amazing sound for the size
|Posted .This smaller speaker will amaze your ears. Whether it is the low whisper of dialog or the high intensity of an action scene the clarity is truly second to none within the size (5 x 5 1/4 x 5) and price point of this speaker. I've found that you can not go wrong with Definitive Technology products.

Bought these to go with my pro monitor 1000
|Posted .So if you have a 2 or 2.1 system and you are unsure on how this will help your experience. Here's what I can assure you: Set the settings from your receiver from stereo to digital, pro logic I or II (etc.) and all the sound you hear coming from the front/rear speakers will go straight to the center channel that will now focus on the dialogue, music, bringing it out toward you filling your room and the bookshelf speaker will now purely focus on the background noise. It will truly be worth the investment and will bring you closer to that sound you want for your very own home theater.

Good speaker
|Posted .Sounds good. I ended up returning and upgrading to the DT 8040 because it was a better sound at an open box price. Prior to returning, the speaker was awesome. Used in my tailgate trailer.

Definitive Technology ProCenter 1000 ReviewThe ProCenter 1000 delivers surprising audio. Between BDSS technology and the bass radiators, this little center channel speaker can produce rich, full sound. It's small enough to be hidden away, but the audio is quite prominent. Having a center

Q: QuestionCan this be placed on tile floor underneath media cabinet?
Asked by Harvey.
- A:Answer I am not a sound guru but I have learned a few things over the years with setting up various systems. While you could place this on the floor underneath the media cabinet, i would not place it directly on a tile floor. I believe it would sound much better higher in your media cabinet too.. The closer you can place it to the same height as your head when you when you are listening to it the better I believe it will sound for you.

Q: QuestionAfter reading reviews, no doubt this cc speaker is great for movies/television. Do these also work well for listening to CDs and music in general? Thanks
Asked by LouisD.
- A:Answer It works very well for music. I play music constantly hardwired and Bluetooth and both are clear with very little distortion as you peak the volume.
Answered by BobbySaget
Q: QuestionI am not connecting to TV. Connecting to receiver with 4 in wall speakers to listen to music. Is this good for that?
Asked by Hjs.
- A:Answer Sure. This would be fine for that. Just make sure that after you hook up the speaker to your receiver that you run your speaker setup again to balance everything out. This would be connecting the little mic that should have come with your receiver and following the prompts to run through the setup again. I have it hooked up to a 7.2 system and it works very well for me.
