Definitive's Disappearing In-Wall Speakers Just May be the "Holy Grail" of Built-in Speakers
You want great sound everywhere in your home, but you may not always have room for or want the visual intrusion of free-standing speakers. Built-in flushmount speakers seem to be the answer but in practice they don't exactly disappear in the room, in fact many "in-wall" speakers call attention to themselves and create friction between your decorator and your audiophile sensibilities. Worse yet, most built-in speakers fall short on the performance end as well. Would Definitive allow you to suffer with bad sound Oh no, no, no!

The DI 6.5STR is a "stereo" speaker, both left and right channels are fed into a single speaker. Dual angled tweeters disperse the sound in broad area to approximate the spaciousness of two speakers. The STR is the perfect solution in spaces where you want sound but where using two speakers is not practical or economical-such as hallways, kitchens, bathrooms and offices.

Definitive's Disappearing In-Wall series speakers feature near-invisibility thanks to their small diameters, hidden flange design, and low profile micro-perf grilles. They are as easy to install as traditional flanged flush-mount speakers, and don't require custom sheetrock/spackle skills to install yet they are practically invisible. The DI 6.5STR grille is a mere 8-5/16" (21.04 cm)in diameter, about the same visible size as competitive 5-1/4" in-ceiling speaker. With Definitive's DI Series you get more sound per square inch of visible speaker.

Definitive's Advanced Technologies Mean Better Sound for You
The Disappearing In-Wall models feature Definitive's most advanced technologies such as Balanced Dual Surround System (BDSS) mid/woofer drivers and pivoting Pure Aluminum dome tweeters for spectacular audio performance far beyond traditional flush-mount speakers.

Definitive's patented BDSS driver technology permits the DI series flush mount speakers to deliver more bass output and dynamic range than larger drivers. For example, the DI 6.5R's 6-1/2" driver has the output, bass and dynamics of a 8" traditional speaker.

With a pivoting 1" Pure Aluminum dome tweeter featuring a specially shaped housing that avoids the diffraction distortions of traditional post-mounted tweeters, and a sophisticated adjustable crossover network, the Disappearing In-Wall models deliver the kind of lifelike sonic performance and broad even dispersion that have made Definitive Technology the most highly reviewed speaker brand in the USA.

Great Sound for Everyone in the Room
With in-ceiling speakers, listeners are almost always "off-axis." You rarely sit right under an in-ceiling speaker; usually the speaker is at a 30, 45 or even 60-degree angle to the listener. We've engineered DI Series speakers to disperse sound over a very wide area so that the sound is well-balance and natural regardless of where you are relative to the speakers. BDSS technology drivers, aimable tweeters as well as the specially contoured and textured AeroRing around the driver all contribute to the wide angle dispersion and superior coverage capability of the DI Series models.

Everything You Need for Installation
Optional pre-construction "rough-in" brackets with repositionable metal mesh "arms" are available for new home construction projects. Fire-rated pre-construction enclosures will be available as options, allowing integrators, architects and designers to specify Disappearing In-Wall Speakers in multi-family and commercial applications.

sounds great - color isn't excactly what I saw online

Easy to use; quiet operation; music quality very good for the price.

the cable is what it states it is big and heavy and flows a lot of power needed

Great streaning amp. I love that it looks like my old Yamaha CA-810 amp. However, all of the new tech and connections make the R-N2000A a more than worthy successor.

Great entry level audiophile turntable!

The Eversolo A-8 is a beautiful and very functional DAC Streamers. Aaron service was on point. All thumbs up for Safe and Sound

These are amazing speakers. I did a lot of reading reviews about these before I purchased them. And just like almost all the reviewers said, they sound incredible! The sound does bounce off the walls and immerses you with sound. Even played at low volume, The sound is just pure and realistic. I would highly recommend these to anyone who loves all kinds of music !

The speakers arrived in great condition and the sound really fills my space well. Thank you!

I was genuinely surprised by how much of an impact the Esprit Aura had coming from the Esprit Celesta. The soundstage is dramatically larger and fine details are significantly improved versus the Celesta. The bass was also significantly improved too, bringing deeper extensions on the bottom end just like the better details on the high end. The difference is so significant that’s it’s hard to give a single example because it affected everything so dramatically. As an example though, symbols taper off slower, as it preserves the softer part of the roll off that wasn’t being preserved via the Esprit Celesta cable.
My system consists of a Hifi Rose RS152 going to the RA280 integrated. Speakers are the Audel Magika Plus. Going from the streamer to the amp was a Celesta XLR interconnect.

Excellent upgrade from the 2M Red.

By far the best listening experience of any speakers I’ve owned.

I like the unit, but I have a metal roof of my house. What kind of antenna do I need? I’m having a hard time getting channels.

Great they showed up in beautiful condition, they sound great i really have been enjoying them!

Great product and flawless transaction: no muss, no fuss; arrived on time, all in good condition. What's not to like!

Great turntable, easy transaction.

Massive power, no need for a separate amp for 90 db or higher fronts. This has great streaming capability and high grade DAC.
