Description

Remarkably sophisticated with the sound quality of much bigger speakers, the ProMonitor 1000 incorporates top-of-the-line Definitive Technology features for amazing home theater experiences. The speaker features BDSS driver coupled with a pressure-driven low-frequency radiator, a pure aluminum dome tweeter and a non-resonant PolyStone speaker cabinet that together produce rich, warm lifelike audio with smooth high-frequency reproduction. Small enough to hide yet attractive enough to show off, the speakers can be placed on a shelf, on a stand or mounted on a wall. The best satellite speaker in the acclaimed Pro Series, ProMonitor 1000 speakers pair with a ProCenter 2000 and matching ProSub for a complete ProCinema sound system. From the Manufacturer The ProMonitor 1000 is Definitive's largest and best satellite speaker in the acclaimed Pro Series. Four ProMonitor 1000s along with a ProCenter 2000 and ProSub 1000 makes a complete ProCinema 1000 system. All the components of the system are packed and sold separately allowing you to mix and match Pro Series components to build the system that best suits your needs. Small size speaker has remarkable sophistication and huge sound Easy to place with the built-in keyhole mount. View larger Bass radiators enhance low frequency performance for more true-to-life sound Rubber-tipped tripod stand ensures slip and mark-free shelf mounting Don't let the ProMonitor 1000's small size and affordable price fool you -- it is a remarkably sophisticated product with huge sound. The 1000 incorporates many of the same technologies as Definitive's top-of-the-line models including BDSS drivers, pure aluminum dome tweeters, and planar pressure coupled mid/bass radiators for home theater sound quality that will shock your friends and family when they hear your system for the first time.The Secret to Their Big SoundCompeting satellite speakers of this size usually have weak lower- midrange response; that part of the audio range that contains the "warmth" and "body" of voices and musical instruments. Listen to a male vocal on typical small satellite speakers and you will instantly hear the weakness in the lower midrange. The ProMonitor satellites avoid this critical problem by pressure- coupling exclusive BDSS technology driver to an equal-sized mid/bass radiator cleverly placed on the top of the satellite. This technique doubles the lower- midrange radiating area of the speaker without increasing the size of the enclosure. You’ll enjoy the kind of rich, warm and life-like sound quality that you thought was only possible with big, hard to place speakers.Easy to Place, Easy to UseSmall enough to disappear in a room but beautiful when in plain view, the 1000 satellites can be shelf-mounted with their unique tri- lobed base, wall-mounted using the built-in keyhole mount, or mounted using optional ProMount 90 articulating pivot wall mounts (sold separately).The SoundSonically, the ProMonitor 1000 satellite is a revelation in terms of achieving incredible sound at an affordable price. Their imaging is absolutely boxless, spacious and three dimensional while delivering pinpoint specificity and localization when called for. They are velvety smooth with you-are-there presence which is hard to find at any price and unheard of in this price range. The 1000 is dynamic but capable of great subtlety so it excels equally with music or movies.Technical SpecificationsDimensions: 6.25 by 10.88 by 6.5 inches (W x H x D)Frequency response: 47 Hz to 30 kHzRecommended amplification: 10 to 200 wattsEfficiency: 90 dBDriver complement: 1 x 5.25" bass/midrange driver; 1 x 5.25" planar low-frequency radiator; 1 x 1" aluminum dome tweeterMagnetic shielding: YesFinish: Gloss black

    • Really good speaker!!!
Color: Black
So I recently decided that I would upgrade my home theater system and replace all of my equipment with more high end equipment. The system I had included a Yamaha RX-V667 7.2 channel receiver and a set of the Bose Acoustimass 10 speakers. Both of these served my needs very well for a few years, but I decided to sell this equipment, make over my TV room into a media room and replace all of the equipment with new equipment. For what is it worth, my new system is now a 7.1 system and with my budget, it comprises the following: Receiver - Denon AVR-X4000; Center Channel Speaker - Definitive Technology Procenter 2000; Front L/R speakers - Definitive Technology Promonitor 1000; Front Heights L/R - Definitive Technology Promonitor 1000; Surround L/R - Definitive Technology SR-8040BP (Bipolar Speakers); Subwoofer - Definitive Technology Supercube 2000. My room is approximately 13' x 13' with 9 ' high ceilings. This review of the Promonitor 1000 will also consider some comparison to the Bose AM 10 system (which really is no comparison really). Packaging and general - the speaker is well packaged with adequate support and stuffing. Included in the box is the users manual and a small black insert. The speaker comes with a pre-installed stand screwed onto the bottom. This stand is necessary if you are choosing to use the speaker as a stand or shelf mount. In my case, I was wall mounting the speaker so the stand was removed and the small black insert was used to cover the threaded connection at the bottom of the speaker. The speaker construction is very high quality and very sturdy and the speaker is quite heavy (7 lbs) for a bookshelf speaker. There is a binding post at the back of the speaker which accepts banana plugs (I use banana plugs). My only complaint is that I do not like the high gloss piano black finish since this shows up fingerprints, smudges and dust. That just semantics though but hardly anything major to warrant a deduction of stars. One thing to note is that one of these speakers is about 2-3 times the size of the speakers included in the Bose AM 10 system. Sound reproduction - According to the deftech's published specification, this speaker has a sensitivity of 91 db. Bose does not publish its speaker sensitivity, but I did come across an article on the internet where some independent tester performed a sensitivity test on the Bose AM 10 speakers and came up with a sensitivity of 85-86 db. Sensitivity is a measure of a speaker's loudness at 1m if driven with 1W of power. After connecting up theses speakers to the receiver, I did not perform an audyssey calibration since I was eager to hear the sound from my new system. All I did was to just set the speakers to "small' setting, set some rough distances and then set the levels at the highest for all the speakers. Threw on Transformers 2 and 3 and BAM!!!!!!!!..... Amazing sound. These speakers are really crisp and the sound quality is phenomenal. In conjunction with the Procenter 2000, the SR-8040BP and the Supercube 2000, the system sounded great. The Bose speakers never sounded anything like these and I was actually hearing sounds in the soundtrack in a level of purity and quality that the Bose never replicated. I have since performed an audyssey calibration and then adjusted some of the speaker levels to tailor to my preference. Now I can truly hear the potential of these speakers. The level of sound reproduction is so much better than the Bose. Even my wife who enjoys watching movies with me has remarked that the new system and these speakers sound so much better than the Bose AM 10. I mean, do not get me wrong, the Bose sounded ok but, for the quality of sound you get from those speakers, they should be priced less. The deftech speakers fill the room and the house with sound and they are not even cranked to a high volume level from the receiver (between -45 db to -29 db). In comparison, the old Bose speakers were usually played at -33 to -29 db and the results were no way near as astounding. In summary, the Promonitior 1000 are exceptional speakers for a small room and possibly for medium sized room. I plan to add an amplifier later on and by that time, I am sure these speakers would have broken in (as per manufacturer's recommendation) to achieve sonic purity and bliss. I definitely recommend these speakers and have no problems in giving them 5 star!!!! -------------- EDIT UPDATED 29-Dec-2014 -------------- So I tweaked the speaker setup for the room and adjusted the parametric equalizers for each pair of speaker in the room a few weeks ago. The sound quality was more to my liking. I actually used Transformers 2 for my tweaking because I think that movie has top notch sound effects and special effects that really bring out the most in speakers. While tweaking, the sound was 'optimized' at a volume level of -32dB on my Denon AVRX4000 receiver. Since then these speakers have been used for movie and radio listening quite extensively. For the last couple of nights I was watching various movies(Hangover 3, Pacific Rim, Lord of the Rings, Transformers 3) and I found that the sound was quite loud at volume levels between -40 db to -36 db. It was then it occurred to me that the speakers have broken in and were really blossoming just as the manufacturer recommended. I just wanted to provide this update so potential buyers would know that this speaker break in is real and the sound quality does dramatically change after about 20-40 hours of speaker use. The sound from these speakers is even more impressive that I originally reviewed. I maintain my 5 star rating and would rate them 6 stars if I could. Don't hesitate - buy these speakers. Really amazing value for money!!!! ... show more

definitive technology is awesome. I saw these and figured I'd write this. I bought them in 2010. and I haven't been gentle with them. I've gone through three TVs and two receivers. And all of those were just upgrades. Only thing I've added to this 7.2 set up is two Klipsch Atmos on top of my...BP 6000B I think they are? 2 towers,2 monitor 800, 2 1000, 2 8" pro sub 1000, pro center 2000. never a pop or a crackle with any of them. I think in 2017 a fuse blew in one of the subs. but that's it. they sound phenomenal. Everybody says so. Just don't forget to pop the screen off, they do get dusty on top, see my finger drag? be careful though, it's not a flat piece. It bends at the top. don't snap it. Edit: I forgot to mention I'm using these as my two rear surround, but I have them basically just behind my recliner and it creates an excellent rear center phantom. I watched Halo and every time Cortana speaks it's like she's in my head, it freaked me out the first time. And a couple times after. ... show more

    • Amazing speaker that delivers on both sound and looks
Color: White
I am a fan of Definitive Technology speakers having owned them in the past. Recently I was looking to replace some large floor standing speakers with something that both sounded better and would look better in my living room. Much to my delight I discovered that Definitive Technology made these speakers in white. I am running a Denon receiver and feeding it all my TV/Blu-Ray/Video Game sound as well as running a turntable through it. I don't have any other speakers or a subwoofer. Just these two ProMonitor 1000 units. Everything sounds GREAT! You simply won't believe the quality and depth of sound that can come out of these little speakers! They produce enough bass for me and I can even feel them shaking the floor upstairs. Of course it isn't shake the whole block bass like you would get from a dedicated subwoofer, but I'm not really into that. The midtones and highs are great and really bring out things that you may have never noticed before in your music and movies. I recommend using banana plugs with these speakers to ensure a good connection. I'm using the Sewell Direct Deadbolt Banana Plugs that you can find here on Amazon. All in all a great speaker. One thing to note is that Definitive Technology seems to make great stands for these speakers, but for some reason only offers the white stand for their ProMonitor 800 speakers which are slightly smaller. The stand with the larger base to accommodate the ProMonitor 1000 only comes in black. I have asked Definitive Technology about this as I would like to get their own stands but would need white to match the speakers. If they don't plan to ever make the stands in white I will probably just try to find some universal white stands that will work with these speakers. ... show more

    • High quality sound, broad range, small size
Color: Black
Incredibly dynamic and capable speakers for the size. You could even do without a subwoofer if you didn't really care about the super-low-end bass and shaking the walls, but the experience will be even better with a basic subwoofer. Slick piano black finish, unique curved design which was wife-approved. Next to a 55"+ TV these look small and beautiful. I replaced a pair of high quality ultra-compact speakers which had 3.25" drivers, with these which have 5.25" drivers plus bass radiators. I was missing detail and power in the low-end range and now I have it. You should consider setting your receiver to send the full range of sound into these, not just the range above the subwoofer crossover. The break-in time is legit so don't fully judge them until a month of usage and after that you should re-run your receiver's optimizer program to bring out the best in them. After the break in period they sound more balanced across the full range compared to when I first took them out of the box. I am thrilled with my purchase. ... show more
