Because they are voice-matched with the complete Mythos Series, they're perfect for use as compact, convenient surround speakers in a system made up of larger Mythos main speakers, or as a complete Gem-only compact high performance home theater system when combined with a Mythos Seven Center Channel Speaker and a SuperCube subwoofer

 

Mythos Gem Speakers feature an easy-to-use keyhole slot bracket (and mounting screw) for simple wall mounting that looks amazing next to your wall mounted flat screen television. Or use the custom GemStand, with its flowing lines and hidden wire guide, for a superbly coherent and elegant modern look with the convenience of floor-standing speakers. You can also use popular articulating wall mount brackets (available separately).

 

State-of-the-art engineering technology delivers the classic level of Definitive Technology sound quality: wide, dynamic soundstage, pinpoint imaging, and superb realism. Packed into these compact enclosures are proprietary damping technologies that ensure total rigidity, angled mid/bass drivers in PolyStone baffles, and sophisticated Linkwitz-Riley Crossover Networks to more perfectly blend the drivers into a sonically seamless audio environment.

 

Nothing complements your high definition flat screen television with more style, versatility and sheer performance than the beautiful Mythos Series models.

Superior Performance Components

Each Mythos ® Gem contains two 3-1/2 inch mid/bass drivers that are angled in opposite directions to broaden the midrange dispersion for the kind of diffuse soundfield sought after by home theater fanatics for surround loudspeakers. Use the Mythos Gems for front and surround channel duties and you'll be rewarded with spacious and enveloping surround effects that will make you feel like you're in the cast of the movie. The bass roll-off of the Mythos Gem is smooth and controlled, allowing it to seamlessly blend with a powered subwoofer, such as Definitive's SuperCubes, for audiophile-grade home theater power and precision.

 

The array's 1 inch Pure Aluminum dome tweeter produces extended highs that reveal nuance and shimmer without a trace of edginess.

Rock-Solid Enclosure

Mythos Series enclosures are hand-polished gloss Black aircraft-grade extruded aluminum with proprietary damping technologies that ensure total rigidity. All components are mounted on a resonance-free PolyStone baffle. These rock-solid construction technologies along with state-of-the-art drivers and tweeter serve to deliver classic Definitive Technology sound quality: wide soundstage, spacious imaging, high dynamic impact, and superb realism.
