  • High quality lows.
Color: Black Style: DN12 Pattern: Subwoofer
Important: this sub ships with sensitivity at -6db. Was excited to replace my old sub. Connected it and was underwhelmed- only in certain parts of the music I heard the deep lows. Come weekend- read the manual and tinkered with the settings. Set input sensitivity to 0 dB- my disappointment turned to delight. The sub begun to rock. High quality deep bass- not the boomy cheap sub sound but nice and deep. I'm glad I got the 12 inch. The 15 inch too large and the 10 inch would have to work real hard to keep up with my taste in sound. The 12 inch is quite huge and heavy. I like that it's heavy. Means it's well built and it's own weight will keep it from getting affected by vibrations. I keep display at off. Sound at deep as I only use it for music. Have it connected to my speaker out on the srereo amp ( sony ta-1es) for better sound integration. Not using line in. The remote is useful to tinker with settings. The remote build quality is surprisingly really cheap. Seems like a $2 item. Thankfully, after a couple of weeks- all the tinkering is done and then one really does not need the remote as such. All the same- dt should not have made it so low quality. Do I recommend the sub?- a really low 25hz - Yes! Ps- I bought a new power cable for the subwoofer. A monstrous thick 2nd hand PS Audio shielded power cable. Sub didn't get louder buy it certainly got cleaner and went down even lower. Upgrading the power cable added a new dimension to my sub. 6 months since I bought the sub- I'm very happy with it. ... show more

  • Impressive performance!
Color: White Style: DN8 Pattern: Subwoofer
I had already purchased the vaunted SVS 3000 Micro sub a few months before pulling the trigger on the Def Tech Descend DN 8 so I really wasn't expecting much from this sub. Boy was I wrong! I have to say, the visceral power, more importantly, the quality of sound from the DN 8 was shocking! I had initially tried the SVS 3000 Micro in my home theater system but found I could never quite dial in the sound to my liking, even with the remarkable SVS app. It always seemed overly boomy and on the verge of bottoming out during loud action scenes. I eventually took it out of my HT system and added it to my bookshelf speakers for two channel music listening where it seems much better suited. When the DN8 arrived and I added it to my HT system and dialed it in with the help of my Sony STR-ZA5000ES receiver's "Advanced Digital Cinema Auto Calibration," the system came alive. Not only did the low end visceral power return, but I couldn't get over the quality of the base. I began dialing up music on YouTube to play through the system and the DN8 did an amazing job of demonstrating its finesse, speed and textured base notes. I never heard any of the muddy base notes I experienced with the SVS in the system, just clean, fast, punchy base! I have to say this Definitive Technology DN8 is tremendous value for the money. I can only imagine how the DN10 & 12 sound! For my smallish living room the DN8 is more than enough for me. Great job Definitive Tech! ... show more

  • Very effective subwoofer, almost too much
Color: Black Style: DN8 Pattern: Subwoofer
Great sounding bass! In my case, I had to turn down both the pass through and the volume to pretty low levels or it was very boomy. I had one of the 1st Definitive Technology subwoofers and it lasted 25+ years. The only problem I had with it is when we had power go out, it would thump LOUDLY. It finally gave up working. No reason not to stick with Definitive Technology. No thump with power outage on this new unit. :) Love it. ... show more

  • Compact yet musically delivers. Nice settings. With direct speaker cable inputs.
Color: Black Style: DN8 Pattern: Subwoofer
I use this subwoofer to complement regular size high-end audio where speakers, Thiel CS 1.7 , have relatively limited representation of low frequency until 52Hz. The setting was easy but finding the best parameters requires manual discovery try and error for two speakers system. For surround system it would be much simple as this subwoofer has automatic feature. One of the reasons I got this subwoofer is that it has input of both LFE and standard speaker plug from amplifier. I connect the two sets of speaker cables from my mono amplifier Parasound JC1 to both Thiel CS1.7 and this subwoofer. JC1 has dual speaker output. It turned out that my environment worked best with 180 degrees of phase switch. This item has two phase settings, 0 as its default and 180 as another option. Other options include low pass filter, and in my case the lowest range fits best. Easy to change and to find the optimal point. Manual is detailed enough. A picture of manual is attached. Bass sound is concrete and relatively firm. It does not recede. Enough to enough bass structure to the extremely detailed and realistic sound stage from Thiel, making sonic stage even more colorful and vibrant. For the use cases like mine, I do believe this subwoofer works. If your audio room is large, consider a different model but for a small to mid size room with a need to add quality bass, this subwoofer is one of the most attractive choices. ... show more

  • Small but packs a big punch!!!
Color: Black Style: DN8 Pattern: Subwoofer
Bought this to replace my old 10-inch Definitive Technology ProSub which lasted me about 20 years. Since I had a great experience with the brand (also have a Def Tech center channel speaker) I decided to try the new 8-inch sub based on the premise it sounded “bigger” than its size. Well, I’m very happy to say how accurate that description is. I have mine set up in a corner of my basement/family room so the bass is well contained in the room. Modern technology has allowed a a sub with a much smaller footprint than I had before to produce great sound for music and movies. Definitely recommend a try if replacing an older sub and/or if you’re limited on floor space for a great sounding sub. ... show more
