DEF TECH BIPOLAR 9000 SERIES

-

Definitive Technology has released its BP9000 speaker series, comprising four front-channel models: BP9020 ($2,495), BP9040 ($3,495); BP9060 ($4,495) and BP9080x ($6,995). Also available is an optional A90 height speaker module ($995) for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X compatibil­ity. There are three centre-channels in the series (CS9040, CS9060 and CS9080) and two surrounds (SR9040 and SR9080). Features on selected models in the range include aluminium dome tweeters, integrated powered subwoofers, ‘Intelligen­t Bass Control’ technology and Def Tech’s ‘Forward-Focused Bipolar technology.’ The A90 module integrates with the BP9020, BP9040, and BP9060 tower speakers for Atmos/DTS:Xm but height functional­ity is built-into the BP9080X. ‘ The new series is a ground-up redesign of the previous series, the BP8000,’ said Nigel Ng, of Advance Audio Australia, which distribute­s Definitive Technology in Australia. ‘ Conveying Definitive Technology’s minimalist design philosophy, the BP9000 series is wrapped in premium materials such as brushed natural aluminium top plates that disguise the height module connector port, and features a patented Forward-Focused Bipolar Array that gives total placement flexibilit­y whilst balancing room-filling sound and a precise centre image.’

The BP9040 has a 203mm bass driver and two 203mm passive radiators and claims a frequency response of 22Hz–40kHz. The BP9060 pairs a 254mm bass driver with two 254mm radiators and claims a frequency response of 18Hz–40kHz. The BP9080x claims a frequency response of 16Hz–40kHz and is fitted with a 354mm bass driver and two 354mm passive radiators, plus is the only model that comes with the Atmos module built-in. ‘ The speakers in the new BP9000 series combine an elegant exterior with innovative technology and features,’ said Ng. ‘ Meaning that these sleek speakers will suit any space, be an eye-catching addition to any room and will provide users with an out-of-this-world home audio experience time and time again.’
