Product Description
-------------------
Definitive Technology Pro sub 800.
From the Manufacturer
---------------------
The Low Frequency Effects (LFE) of a movie’s soundtrack bring
excitement, realism and just plain fun to action, adventure and
sci-fi movies. Accurate reproduction of the bottom octaves of all
music, especially pipe organ, symphonic and rock add that last
touch to bring you true you-are-there realism to your listening.
Worry not, Definitive has bass down pat. The ProSub 800 features
a 300 Watt amplifier driving a high-excursion 8 inch
front-ed direct-radiating woofer that is pressure-coupled to
an 8 inch Low Bass radiator on the bottom of the enclosure. The
net radiating area of the ProSub 800 is 27% greater than a single
10 inch woofer but with better speed, pitch definition and
control.
Pressure-coupled Low Bass Radiator on the enclosure bottom works
to produce deep, soul-stirring bass
Side-ed volume control makes bass level adjustment easy and
convenient

Advanced MOSFET Technology Amplifier
------------------------------------
The ProSub 800 incorporates Definitive Technology's unique
digitally-coupled Infinite Power Source amplifiers with
high-current direct coupled power supplies and discrete MOSFET
output devices to ensure perfect high-definition resolution and
reproduction of the most dynamic program material and demanding
sub-bass transients. Construction quality is absolutely
state-of-the-art with only the highest quality components used
including mil-spec glass epoxy circuit boards and precision
resistors and capacitors for many years of faultless superior
performance. In addition, tremendous current reserves, high
peak-power capabilities and two protection circuits ensure that
these subwoofers can never be overdriven. There is also a
convenient, signal-sensing, auto on/off feature.
Superior Detail and Lightning-Fast Transient Response
-----------------------------------------------------
The powerful, high-definition driver delivers rock-solid low
distortion bass, reaching down to the lowest subsonic
frequencies, with an outstanding quality of superior transient
response. The special ultra-stiff, low-mass cone (for super-fast
transient response) is joined to a butyl rubber surround and
long-throw voice coil and spider. The incredibly rigid baskets
are engineered to hold the massive magnet structures and large
voice coils in absolute alignment. The high temperature voice
coil is aluminum wound with triple insulated ultra-pure copper
wire and baked in epoxy for power handling in excess of 750
watts.
Rock Solid Non-Resonant Cabinets Ensure Pure Low Distortion
Response
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The cabinet of a loudspeaker plays a large part in its sonic
performance. Resonance and vibration can add unwanted distortion
as well as drain away important energy from the system.
Definitive's subwoofers utilize monocoque cabinets, which have
been specifically engineered to be totally inert and vibration
free, to ensure you of absolutely pure sonic reproduction.
Monocoque means that the cabinet is of a unitized construction
where all panels are permanently joined together into one solid
structure. The cabinet walls themselves are high-density MDF
fused together by space-age polymer adhesives. The front and rear
baffles are extra thick and the cabinets each incorporate
multiple internal braces to ensure total solidity.
Completely Adjustable Electronic Crossovers Assure a Perfect
Match to Your System and Room
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The sophisticated low distortion electronic crossover is a
masterpiece of design and execution. It contains a complete range
of hookups, circuitry and features which allow the subwoofers to
be connected and perfectly blended with any system as well as
adjusted for optimum performance in any room.
The ProSub 800 features a continuously adjustable low pass filter
control which allow you to choose a high frequency roll-off of
from 40 to 150 Hz. This unique "dual stage" roll-off is extremely
steep which ensures perfect blending with your main speakers as
well as eliminating unwanted midrange from the subwoofer. This is
especially important because it gives you much greater
flexibility in placing your subwoofer in your room without being
able to hear where it is located. There is also a separate
low-level direct LFE input for Dolby Digital which bypasses the
crossover network. The subwoofer level control is conveniently
ed on the side of the enclosure instead of the rear panel,
making it easy to reach. It allows you to perfectly adjust the
volume of the subwoofer to match your system and room as well as
to fulfill your own personal sonic preferences.
