Building on its 25 years of experience in bipolar speakers, Definitive Technology has introduced the Dymension Series high-performance loudspeakers, featuring four bipolar towers, three center channel speakers, a height module, and a surround speaker for Atmos/DTS:X systems.
Dymension Series speakers, which select members of the AV media previewed at the brand’s Carlsbad, CA, headquarters in January, offer high performance audio and several room integration options. They also feature a minimalist design, expansive bipolar sound field, and built-in powered subwoofers.
All Definitive Technology Dymension Series speakers have been timbre-matched to work together. The speakers are wrapped in an acoustically transparent cloth so that as soon as you dim the lights, they virtually disappear into your room.
The lineup’s DM80 Flagship Tower Speaker features a fully balanced, adjustable bipolar array. Bipolar driver arrays direct more sound in more directions than traditional speakers for more depth-of-field and a more enveloping listening experience. This bipolar effect can be adjusted to optimize for room placement (for example, turning down the effect when the speakers are backed up close to a wall.)
The DM80 also features a built-in 12-inch subwoofer, powered by an all-new, high-performance 400W GaN FET amplifier. It was designed to deliver clean, detailed bass that blends with the mids and highs to feel consistent no matter where you sit.
Definitive Technology’s flagship DM80 models also feature four 5.25” mid/bass woofers with the brand’s patented Balanced Double Surround System (BDSS) technology. BDSS is meant to improve midrange driver excursion and provide a wide, uniform soundstage with seamless bass/mid integration. A Linear Response Waveguide extends and smooths off-axis dispersion.
The DM80 also offers patented Intelligent Bass Control. This digital processing capability blends subwoofer output with mids and highs to provide more deep-bass performance without sacrificing midrange clarity. The goal is to increase bass without getting in the way of dialogue and other critical soundtrack elements.
Available separately, a DM90 Atmos certified and DTS:X-compatible height module connects to the top of the DM80 to extend sound above you for total sonic immersion and hyper-realistic overhead effects. In addition to the DM80 flagship active tower, the Definitive Technology Dymension Series also includes a large and medium active tower with built-in subwoofers and a slim passive tower.

The DM30 Flagship center channel speaker features four 5.25″ BDSS midrange woofers and a 1″ aluminum oxide tweeter that are designed to deliver ultra-clear vocals with realism. The DM30’s integrated 8” powered subwoofer adds further to the speaker’s full-range immersive sound and an integrated 8” powered subwoofer delivers clean, detailed bass that blends with mids and highs.
The Definitive Technology DM30 features 3XR architecture, which was introduced in Definitive Technology’s flagship Descend Series, combines a subwoofer and two passive radiators for more effective low-end performance.
The DM30’s midrange woofers also feature Definitive’s BDSS to improve excursion and provide better midrange detail. The patented Linear Response Waveguide extends off-axis dispersion, as well.
In addition to the DM30 flagship active center channel speaker with built-in subwoofer, the Definitive Technology Dymension Series also includes two passive center channel speakers, including one with a slim design for smaller spaces.
The Definitive Technology Dymension Series loudspeakers are now available in North America. Products in this series range from $699 to $2499 from local Definitive Technology retailers or the Definitive Technology website.
