Customer Ratings & Reviews

I added a W7 to my Def Tech Micro Studio sound bar in loft area of my house to complete the package. Loft is large, 18'x25' but together they fill house with rich clean sound in perfect sync. You can play one zone or the other or both together, and adjust the volumes individually from your smart phone,tablet or the units themselves. There is no remote or sound settings on the W7 like the micro system has but, it still sounds amazing for its size and I had the Bose (w/ 5 jewel speakers) which lacked the depth and richness when playing music. Pretty easy to add to your wifi and they stay connected well. Software is good and they occasionally update and add features like Amazon prime music awhile ago.

I really enjoy having sound anywhere in or outside the house. The speaker has a rich full sound. One drawback that we did encounter is some music, all of which has been paid for on iTunes/CD's will not play through the wireless speaker due to Digital Rights Management Issues. After talking to Apple and Definitive Tech reps it seems as though neither has a good explanation or plan to make it possible to play music for which I have already paid. There does not seem to be any consistency among the artists whose music I can not play. I would like to know if there is a simple solution to this problem. Best Buy and/or Definitive Technology should make the buyer aware of this issue.

Bought a pair of these today and wow what great sounding speakers! Nice bass output and clean sound and can't get over how great sounding these are. Turn them up they can get quite loud. I had no trouble setting the speakers up software worked fine for me. With the buy one get one deal you can't go wrong..

The set-up was very easy, and initially the speaker worked great. Excellent sound for its size. But, then I started noticing frequent drop outs. Called very nice customer rep. who recommended I purchase a new router (I have Verizon Fios). No thanks. Then, I noticed several of my downloaded classical music selections in which movements are subdivided into a number of smaller sections are not seamless (gap-less), which produces intolerable breaks when trying to listen through a symphonic movement. This does not happen with Bluetooth, and it's unfortunately a problem with the wireless chip in the speaker, and therefore cannot be rectified. Back went the speaker. I bought the Bose Resolve + instead. OK, the audio is compressed some in Bluetooth, but it's more than good enough for my needs and it works magnificently.

This speaker works great with our Polk soundbar through the playfi app. With this speaker we are able to have music throughout our house. The quality is excellent- price is a bit high since its not completely wireless (theres a power cord that has to be used).

The sound reproduced is phenomenal. It's compact size fits anywhere. The unit is solidly built with great ergonomic accessibility, even in the dark. The highs are all there, mid range is full and clean. The base is impressive without being muddy. This is my first dive into the wireless Hifi pool and Definitive Technology fully delivered!

We bought two wireless speakers to go with a soundbar for our Sony TV. You have to use the definitive tech app on a tablet or computer to connect them. The app does not explain that you either set up as soundbar and speakers to use with the TV OR set up to listen to music through the app. The app does NOT allow both set ups, so to switch between TV or music, you must re-set up the system each time. I spoke to the def tech people directly, and they know this is a problem, but I was told there was no timeline for them to address it.

The sound quality is great, but getting the system to work as it should is where the struggle is. We chose this system over Sonos for sound quality, but the Play Fi system to use it leaves a lot to be desired - often we can’t get it to recognize certain speakers, or it drops them altogether. Hopefully they will make updates on that end - and then the speakers and system can be used as they should be able to be used.

I bought this on Black Friday deal buy one get one free for my Definitive Technology Sound bar. After setting up as the surround system it sounds great especially when you are watching a movie you can experience the surround sound. But setting up the speakers is hectic. Other than that it sounds like a mini theater speakers.

Happened to pick mine up when it was on sale for $299. I'm kind of a WiFi noob, but even I had no problems setting this up. I've had none of the connection problems others have stated. I even move it about the house and it connects back to WiFi within seconds. Gets plenty loud and I've never heard any distortion. I will be buying other products from the Definitive Technology wireless line in the future.

Purchased two of the W7 speakers to use with my Micro sound bar. They were quite a challenge to set-up to get the entire system to work together. Had difficulty getting the Wi-Fi to connect with each speaker but after some persistence, got it done...NOT easy ! As a music system they are great, which I mainly use them for. Using them with the Micro sound bar as a surround sound system not so good. Expected more volume from them, get low back ground sound. One thing I`m puzzled with is why isn`t there a power off switch when not in use...I`m guessing it`s to keep a Wi-Fi connection always present. These are not meant to be moved around as they say you can move them room to room. No place to really pick them up, afraid I`ll put my finger through the cloth cover.

Sound quality is very very good Fills space extremely well for its size. I can't imagine a room too big for this speaker. The app is the only weak part. Not intuitive at all to use. App is limited but a new programmer could solve these problems easily in an update.

We like the definitive Sound bar (that we already had) and the wireless speaker is a great addition. I hope Definitive Technology adds the ability to have the TV sound go to the wireless speakers soon! Music is great but an occasional football game would be nice to have on all the speakers.

Looked at these as recommended by sales people and am glad I did. Never heard of this brand but glad I bought these speakers. They had a great sale; BOGO free. I paired these with the sound bar system and love it. Only thing that takes some learning is the app to set up everything.

I absolutely LOVE the rich sound! Paired with the Definative soundbar, we are VERY happy. The clarity is amazing! However, for whatever reason, Pandora does not want to play nice with these speakers. No problems at all with Spotify or internet radio. We plan to add more Definative speakers in the future -

I like the W7 speaker it has nice quality sound out put. It does not have enough volume for an audio file person. I use it with a fiber optic cable to my Kitchen TV. It adds a nice sound to the room but it is not adjustable for real loud sound. it does not increase or decrease sound as you turn volume up or down by TV. Adjustable manually or by your blue tooth which I do not carry with me 24 hour. A great sound and nice looking product. I would give it 5 stars but for the volume control.

I was looking for a single speaker for a sitting room and auditioned Sonos, Bose and the Definitive Technology devices in the $300 range. And the W7 sounded so much better with a deep natural sound. After getting the single speaker, it was only a couple of weeks and I got a second one to create a stereo pair. They sound great and are very discreet sitting as they do on side tables. But, I have had a lot of problems with the speakers disappearing from the app (the app is the only way to send music to the speakers). Definitive's customer support provided some guidance to put the speakers on a 2.4GHz network AND turn off my AUTO channel feature on my router. So far these changes have made the set-up much more reliable. The iOS app only has a limited number of music services, and although the popular ones are included its not possible to route just any audio to the speakers (as you can with bluetooth or AirPlay speakers). And there is no OS X native application (just Windows) and they have no intentions to develop. With all that said, I love the speakers for their sound and how unobtrusive they are.

This small speaker delivers room filling sound with great detail as to crisp highs and deep bass. I found set up challenging. It was basically a hit and miss situation. I am still having difficulty running this speaker and a Definitive Technology sound bar in another room at the same time thus getting a "whole house" effect. This speaker is expensive but worth the money as to sound quality. I used some Best Buy Rewards dollars to lessen the blow. Will continue to work on multi-speaker set up.

Recent purchase after listening to it multiple times in the store. Sound is robust, simple design, portable size. No complaints.

This is a great sounding speaker that integrates well with the system. My only issue is that it seems to auto-shut off a lot after use and I have to get used to turning it on every time I turn on the TV.
