Definitive Technology BP7006
$649.00
Released June, 2008
The Pros:Good sensitivity, sounds rich and detailed even at lower volumes. Creates a large soundstage that gives a sense of space. Powerful bass, won't need a separate subwoofer.
The Cons:Not completely even sound, needs a fair bit of tuning. Draw a lot of power in order to run properly. Lack a bit of midrange support, some weak areas.

The BP7006 cabinet stands 38-1/8" tall and is surrounded in a glossy and professional finish that is only available in a Piano-Black color. Each 7006 speaker unit includes a built-in 8" subwoofer that is powered by an 300 watt class D amplifier and two additional pressure coupled 8" low bass radiators. Definitive Technology claims the 7006 "built-in powered subwoofers achieve dramatically better blending, integration and timbre accuracy than could ever be achieved with separate subs". Each unit includes two 1" pure aluminum dome tweeters, four 4.5" high-def upper bass/mid-range drivers, and one 8" long throw subwoofer that is pressure coupled to two 8" low bass radiators.
The speakers are sold as one to a carton, meaning they can not be bought in pairs; in other words DT sells both a left channel and right channel speaker but seperately. The BP7006 speakers include additional features such as an internal amp power of 300 watts, an auto on/off feature with signal sensing capabilities, 1 pair of 5 way binding post inputs, one optional LFE input, stabilizer bars/feet/ and spikes, and a DT 5 year warranty for the speakers/ 3 year warranty for the amplifier.
