Nice!
Posted .Great speakers for the money with the right receiver and sub. I upgraded my front speakers to the 800's and put the two front 600's in my bedroom and running a Zone2 set up. Nice quality and sound with a 5 year warranty! I'm pushing my surround sound with a Pioneer Elite VSX-90 receiver thru a 4k tv and it all looks and sounds great. Whoever gives the Definitive Technology bookshelf speakers a bad review has no idea what they're doing. (See pics)

Sounds great
|Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.I currently have a Dolby Atmos 5.1.4 setup using a Denon AVR X4300 receiver. Previous to these I was using the procinema 600 speakers in the front and I thought they sounded good. I moved the 600s to be front height speakers and now these 800s are the main front. What a difference these speakers make. They difference was almost night and day. The mids and highs sounded more vibrant. I'm thinking the smaller 600s were not matching the frequency cut over of the sub as I wasnt using the sub the came with the 600s. I would definitely recommend these for those of you who need smaller speakers.

Great Speaker
|Posted .Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This has great sound for a small bookshelf speaker. A little pricy, but worth the cost. Matches perfectly with the mail speakers.

Great speaker for a small room
|Posted .Owned for 8 months when reviewed.I’m using it with my new TV LG CX, it makes a big difference when watching sports, movies and videos games! I’m using them with a Denon AVR. When you put on a movie you seen multiple times, guarantee you will hear things you could not hear with theses speakers.

Greast little speaker at a good price
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Bought these based on review and I wanted some small ones to sit along side my TV. It was between these and the Martin Logan Motion speakers. I listened to them side by side in the store, they sounded different, but I couldn't say I liked one more than the other, so I went with the Def Tech's for the lower price. I've been pleased.

Great
|Posted .I bought four of these during the Christmas sale. I replaced some older Boston acoustics with these. I must say, for the price, I dont think you could do much better. I have tried these without my sub hooked up and they provide plenty of bass by themselves. You cant go wrong with these and I would highly recommend them to anyone in the market for new speakers.

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionCan I hook these speakers up to a regular receiver? It seems that these speakers are marketed mostly for surround sound with TVs and computers, but I am looking to use them just to listen to music and the radio. They would be my only speakers.
Asked by JFK.
- A:Answer Yes. I have mine hooked to my Dennon receiver and it is great for music.

Q: QuestionI currently have a Definitive Technology - W Studio Micro 3.1-Channel Soundbar with 8" Wireless Subwoofer. Will these work with that unit to build out a surround system?
Asked by kmay190.
- A:Answer These speakers require an amplifier to power them so they are not directly compatible with soundbars.

Q: QuestionAnyone have suggestions on speaker stands. Theirs don't seem to be tall enough. So looking for recommendations. Thx
Asked by Techsefy0.
- A:Answer I'm using the PERLESMITH Adjustable Height Speaker Stands (Model: PSSS1). They are inexpensive at less than $35 for a pair on Amazom. They are great. I just took off the speaker's bottom plastic stand and used the same screw to mount them on the Perlesmith stands.

Q: QuestionI have two large definitive standing/tower front speakers, klipsch center channel and subwoofer. I want to add two rear speakers for full surround. Has anyone set these up as rear channel speakers? Just need two good ones to run wires to and be done. Than
Asked by CopiusDiarhea205.
- A:Answer Hello, the ProMonitor 800 will produce wonderful surround sound. Set speakers to small at 100HZ. Options to consider are the ProMonitor 1000 set to small at 80HZ or the SR9040 for a wider surround dispersion.
Answered by Definitivetech Team

Q: QuestionCan you use these Pro 800s as front or rear height speakers?
Asked by Danny.
- A:Answer Yes. Great rear speakers. I think they would lake the quality of a larger front speaker, but if it’s a small room they would work.
