Definitive Technology SR-8080BP

The Definitive Technology SR-8080BP is a bipolar surround speaker for use in home theater systems and big brother to the other surround in the BP & Studio Monitor series, the SR-8040BP. Surrounds are typically placed behind the listener on either side, often in or near the corner of the room.

These are especially equipped for this task as they have essentially two speakers built-in on either side of each speaker, effectively increasing the audible range to cover a 90+ degree radius. The 4 1/2" bass/midrange drivers and 1" pure aluminum dome tweeters are matched to the other speakers in the line and are ideally suited for use with the BP-8080ST and BP-8060ST SuperTower front speakers and CS-8060HD/CS-8080HD center channel speakers, all of which can be bought as a complete 5.1 surround system with essentially three power classes to choose from. Wall mounting is made possible without any added accessories, and they may also be used as extra side channels in the case of 6.1 and 7.1 channel systems. 5 way gold plated binding posts allow for connecting various speaker wire types including pins, spade connections, bare wire and single and dual banana plugs.
