Definitive Technology BPX

The Definitive Technology BPX model is an expensive mid-grade surround/satellite speaker that is part of the Definitive Tech Bipolar audio equipment series. This mid-grade speaker is designed to compliment an elegant and luxurious lifestyle; thus the unit is specifically targeted for a more mature audience. 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.
