Customer Ratings & Reviews

I'm new to home theater. I had 2 Definitive technology prosub 800's, they made the experience really good. I upgraded to 2 of these DN8s and WOW!!! They give the home theater experience i was looking for!! I can feel the rumble!!! They were half off when i got them, definitely worth the price.

Compared multiple subs and decided on the Definitive DN8. Wasn't sure an 8" was going to be sufficient when stacked up against 10" models on the market. Don't let the small package fool you. This thing can thump, Also, love the design. It looks like a small side table and not like a sub. Well done Definitive!

My Definitive Technologies Descend DN8 Sub-woofer has a fantastic sound. I had never wanted one prior to me also purchasing my new Dennon AVR S960S 7.2 4K Ultra Receiver. Together with my current floor standing speaker that I have had for many years and the Center and Rear Speakers make this subwoofer sing. The bass coming from the 3-8" speakers radiates through the living room. Some subwoofers radiate to the floor. This radiates in 3 directions. It can handle up to 500 RMS power. You've got to listen to this 12x12x12 unit to believe what it is putting out. You can make easy adjustments to the bass level and volume on the back of the unit. GREAT!!!

I chose this subwoofer because definitive traditionally has done a great job with discrete subwoofers, even being famous for putting them in their tower speakers. This subwoofer has a small form factor that fits great in my room. I was worried about the outer cover that is fabric being full of dog hair but thats not the case at all. In my large open livingroom/kitchen concept it sounds amazing.

I purchased this sub-woofer from Best Buy. I love the and sound quality and the ease of setting it up. My only disappointment was that they gave me a date for delivery for 3 days from purchase. That didn't work and I had a delay as the item had to be shipped to me from the factory in California. The wait turned out to be worth it.

This is a great subwoofer in a small package. It fills the space with great bass Plenty of power.

I love the fact that this sub is so small it can hide almost anywhere, yet punches well above it's size. For me it was added as a 2nd sub, but could perform well on it's own in anything but a huge room.

After Upgrading to Denon AVR-X4800 and HDMI cables. I decided to upgrade my Speakers. This Sub is so Awesome. Major sound difference than my older one. Not sure why Definitive Technology is pulling out of the market.

Excellent addition to my home theater. Awesome, clean low frequency response considering the size.

Small but mighty sub. Very tight and precise which greatly improved my audio for surround (only 5.1 digital) and music. I have B&W Book shelf speakers with center I have a small room 18x18 It tucks away in the corner nicely. It replaces an old 12" formula f12 which I thought was decent until I heard the DN8

I purchased this sub as a replacement for an expensive Velodyne subwoofer that was continuing to have problems. So far, I have been happy with my purchase. I have a fairly large living room and this sub fills the space nicely. For the price this subwoofer rocks!

Small and powerful great sound from this subwoofer. At the sale price I think is a great option for small to medium size room. I really like the way it looks, beautiful finish, no one can say is a sub speaker. I’m very happy with my purchase

Great little subwoofer. Goes low for such a small package. Great for my PC setup with Swan D200 speakers.

Back story, first. Bought the D11 as fronts - bought 2 of these to couple to them- Boom, floorstanding speakers. Pleastantly surprised. These speakers have a bit of an edge on the BP lineup - you can hear the difference in the finesse and the imaging. They stand up to what you buy into. But, with that said, they obviously lacked in the bass area- so I signed up for some BN8s. They hit hard, true, and with enough impact to really pick up everything I want out of my D11s. With that said, I would categorize these guys as "accompanying" subs. They are not mains. They are assistance. But, they do it fantastically. For what I wanted, I am not disappointed. Why grab those crazy 1700 speakers from their lineup when you can do what I did?? :) save your money.

Had some trouble setting it up. Couldn’t find the correct cable and even Best Buy associate was no help. Then finally got the correct cable but still wouldn’t play. Had to call DT and they were a huge help with configuring my Receiver. Sub works great and sounds awesome!

Great subwoofer matches my system perfectly. Love the sound I’m getting.

Best compact sub, excellent sounding, highly recommended it!!

Excellent bass quality would highly recommend. Compact as well so great for a smaller room.

DEFTECH is the best Sub-woofer system for home theater period. The speaker is aesthetically pleasing as well…

Definitive Technology makes great products across the board and the DN8 sub is no exception. Surprising audio from a small package
