Enjoy Superior Sound Anywhere
Pivoting Aluminium Oxide Dome Tweeter for superior imaging everywhere in the room
An ultralight, rigid, 1” aluminum oxide dome tweeter produces crisp, distortion-free highs that extend far beyond the range of human hearing. CI MAX Series features a pivoting tweeter on most models allowing for speaker placement in convenient locations while directing sound precisely where it matters most.
Premium BDSS Woofers With Linear Response WaveGiude For Robust Mids and Lows and the Ultimate Sweet Spot
Dymension CI MAX’s light, stiff, mineral-filled woofers feature Definitive Technology’s revolutionary Balanced Double Surround System (BDSS™), which improves driver excursion and output, delivering superior punchiness and detail and a more even midrange throughout the room. Our patented Linear Response Waveguide™ extends both on-axis and off-axis frequency dispersion for more natural midrange and precise imaging and an open, airy sound.
Sophisticated Crossover For Optimal Driver Performance
A premium crossover network ensures balanced voicing and smooth response.
Tweeter Attenuation For Easy Adjustments
A three-position high-frequency attenuation switch (-2 dB, flat, + 2 dB) adjusts tweeter response to compensate for acoustic issues like overly bright- or dull-sounding rooms.
Disappering designs for the Ultimative Vanishing Act
An integrated frame and baffle; paintable micro-perforated magnetic grille; and flush, border-free design mean speakers fade into the background for a virtually invisible appearance that’s in perfect harmony with your space.
Toolless Installation for fast, easy installs
A simple, two-piece system with pivoting “dog” arms installs effortlessly—no tools, no hassles. Pre-construction brackets are available for all Dymension CI models.
IP55-Rated Construction for robust weather protection
Stunning sound doesn’t have to be limited to indoor spaces. With IP55-rated protection against dust and low-pressure water streams, trust that you can bring premium sound to any space, including high-humidity environments and outdoor areas.
Timbre-Matching for cohesive sound system
With Dymension, fidelity runs in the family: Combine timbre-matched Dymension, Dymension CI, and Mythos speakers and Descend Series subwoofers to design the high-performance home theater system of your dreams.
