Definitive Technology ProCentre 1000 Centre Speaker

Definitive Technology ProCentre 1000 Centre Speaker incorporates Definitive's sound technologies that deliver spectacular home theatre performance.

ProCentre 1000 Centre Channel Speaker—the heart of a spectacular Home Theater system

The ProCentre 1000 is Definitive's "Better" centre speaker in the acclaimed Pro Series. A ProCentre 1000 along with four ProMonitor 800s or ProMonitor 1000s and a matching ProSub makes a complete ProCinema 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.

Don't let the ProCentre 1000's small size and affordable price fool you—it is a remarkably sophisticated product with huge sound. 1000 incorporates many of the same technologies as Definitive's top-of-the-line models including BDSS drivers, pure aluminium dome tweeters, and planar pressure coupled mid/bass radiators for home theatre sound quality that will astound you.

The Secret to Its Big Sound

Competing centre channel speakers of this size usually have a 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 what we mean. The ProCentre avoids this critical problem by pressure-coupling our exclusive BDSS technology drivers to two equal-sized mid/bass radiators cleverly placed on the sides of the speaker. This technique doubles the lower-midrange/bass 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.

Centre Channel Muscle

As much as 75% of a movie's soundtrack is played by the centre channel loudspeaker making it arguably the most important speaker in a home theatre system. It is the key to getting intelligible dialogue and true-to-life sound effects. So we lavished extra attention on the ProCentre 1000. It features 2 of the same BDSS drivers as used in ProMonitor 800 satellites along with 2 mid/bass radiators on the sides of the enclosure, allowing it to play loud and clear with high tonal accuracy.

The Sound

Sonically, the ProCentre 1000 is a revelation in terms of achieving incredible sound at an affordable price. It fulfils with aplomb its most important job of delivering perfectly clear and intelligible dialogue to every listener in the room. It dishes out high impact sound effects with distortion-free dynamics but is also capable of great subtlety to excel equally with music or movies.
