What do you think about Definitive Technology?


How do folks feel about these speakers for HT? audio? Am I wasting my B&K ref 30 on these? I've aready started buying (surrounds and center) but bought used and could sell w/o loss. I've been buying for about 1/2 MSRP- if that trend continues it will cost about 3500 for the definitve tech speakers (w/o sub). BUT if I buy used and spend 5000-6000 how much of an improvement would there be? and what brands would you recommend where the C,L,R, and surrounds go for a total of 5-6K used? Most everyone here is far more experienced than I so I appreciate the feedback!

Thanks,
Peter

I heard their smallest system - the Cinema 60 - through the basic Elite receiver, right after hearing the Energy Encore system in the same setup and store.

No contest - the Def Tech system was cheaper and far better. The Energy had a little more impact, but was no comparison to the Definitive for clarity - it was like listening to smoothness and detail after noise and clutter.

If the upper line models are anything like this tiny one, this is a great product.
