Product Shot 1 The Pros:5 year warranty. Rated for 10 to 350W of power - good for the vast majority of home theater systems. Produces sound down to 38Hz, which will give a generous amount of lower frequency detail and punch.

The BPX is more particularly a compact, bipolar surround speaker meant to be used with related DT Bipolar series units. The BPX cabinet stands 17-1/2" tall; and is surrounded in a professional finish that is available in a glossy Piano-Black color. Each BPX speaker unit includes four cast-basket 5-1/4" bass/midrange drivers, and two 1" pure aluminum dome tweeters.

Definitive Technology claims that the BPX speaker is an "extremely linear, low-distortion system which is timbre-matched to blend perfectly with all Definitive BP and Studio Monitor series speakers as well as other high-quality speaker systems" The BPX speaker includes additional features such as a keyhole mounting bracket for wall or ceiling mount support, BDSS driver technology support for high definition sound, one pair of 5 way binding post inputs, and a DT 5 year warranty. Definitive Technology sells the BPX speakers packaged in a pair; unlike many of the companies' alternate models which are sold individually.
