• A:Answer You’ll have to be careful with them. The subwoofer amps, and there are two, are pretty strong. In my living room, they vibrate furniture that is 6-8 feet away from the speakers. However, the subwoofers are adjustable. You should be able to find a good compromise level for the base that won’t anger your neighbors and you can still enjoy the great sound of these speakers.

Q: QuestionIs the silver base stand required for use? Trying to fit these in a smaller space in Living Room and the cabinet of speaker will fit, but base too wide. Thanks

Asked 8 years ago by CZ13.

• A:Answer In my opinion, YES. The bases provide a secure anchor. Without them, I would be worried about them tipping over when touched by a child or pet. My listening area is carpeted, and I also use the 'spiked' feet on the silver bases. They give me extra confidence against tipping.

Q: QuestionHi. I'm Carlos from Brazil. Last year, I coudn't buy a pair of speakers by " definitive technology". Now, there are new rules of air companies in Brazil for luggages etc. So, I need a information about size of box and weight of each speaker. Thanks.

• A:Answer I'm not sure if this will help, but I took the information from Best Buy under the specifications area. The Speakers are 34.8 inches tall, 13 inches wide, 11 inches deep and weigh 37 lbs each. estimating the box size, I would guess that the boxes (2) would be about 35 to 36 inches tall by 15 to 16 inches in width, by 12 to 13 inches deep. I'm sure you could probably call Best Buy and have them email you the exact dimensions. I hope this helps.

Q: QuestionI have the BP-9080ST towers (insanity!) and am thinking that the CS9080, with its 255W powered sub, is overkill. Anybody pair a "lesser" center channel (say, the 9060 or 9040)? If so, did you regret it?

Asked 7 years ago by RockManDan.

• A:Answer Not overkill at all! I have four of these BP9080 tower speakers with a pair of SR9080 speakers and the CS9080 center speaker you mentioned. Movies, games, music, you name it, everything sounds insanely great! Totally worth the investment but watch for discounts!

Q: QuestionHello, Currently looking at this 9080 line but with no previous experience in home audio world I was looking for any suggesting regarding which receiver you guys would recommend with theses speakers? Also is receiver all needed or receiver plus amp?

Asked 7 years ago by JF.

• A:Answer I purchased those speakers about 8 months ago. LOVE THEM. Great sound with a built in subwoofer. Mine are set up in a game room and I use mine strictly for music, not part of a home theater system with tv. After explaining to my Best Buy sales rep how I would be using my speakers, I went with recommendations of the Best Buy sales rep and paired the speakers to a Rotel A12 (https://www.bestbuy.com/site/rotel-120w-2-0-ch-amplifier-black/5590306.p?skuId=5590306). Works beautifully for my needs; provides over the air radio, auxiliary cord input, USB input, and Bluetooth input. along with inputs from other desired sources (phono, cd, tape, etc.). As a side note, I explained that my primary "must have" for this sound system was that I want to not only hear the music, but I also wanted to go old school and FEEL that music thumping. The Rotel A12 powers these speakers beautifully without distortion (very minimal, if any) at the extreme higher volumes. Hope this helps.

Q: QuestionWith the 9020 towers can you use a different speaker with the provided height speaker inputs as long as they are the same wattage and ohm rating? The one you offer the A90 is a bit too pricey for me. Will it work with others

Q: QuestionWould you recommend these speakers for vinyl records?i have one of the Marantz turntables they sell at best buy; wanting to upgrade speakers from a older surround sound I have been using and wondering if these 1.7k speakers are worth it for mostly records

Asked 8 years ago by Osc.

• A:Answer Depending on your equipment, these speakers will reveal every click, pop, scratch, wow and flutter, and even a misaligned phone cartridge. They are that good. I was actually disappointed in my album media after listening on these. I'm using a high end Marantz integrated amp and a Sony linear tracking turntable. The only albums I enjoyed were the ones I had originally treated with the Last record preservative process. The better your media, the more these speakers shine. When I listen to them with a high end dedicated Marantz CD player and remastered CDs, the sound is incredible. Music played on a high end sound card on your computer is also good, which also reveals inadequacies in your computer sound board. Low bit rate MP3's sound deplorable. Hope this helps.
