Our Review

Definitive Technology Dymension DM30 Flagship Center Channel Speaker Review

Introduction

A center channel speaker often serves as the unheralded hero of a home theater setup, anchoring dialogue and action to the screen with precision. Definitive Technology, renowned for its high-fidelity audio equipment, offers an intriguing proposition with the Dymension DM30, a speaker that promises to fulfill the center channel role with aplomb.

Design

Aesthetics

The DM30's monochromatic black design is both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, its understated elegance ensures it can slip unobtrusively into any home theater environment, maintaining a focus on the screen. On the other, the lack of color options may disappoint those who prefer a more personalized or contrasting aesthetic.

Build Quality

The speaker's heft and dimensions (7.5 x 31.5 x 15.9 inches) are indicative of its solid build, but they also necessitate careful consideration during setup—this is not a speaker that can be perched on a flimsy shelf. The grille, while non-removable and thus limiting some customization, serves its purpose well, being acoustically transparent to ensure that sound is not impeded.

Features

Audio Components

Definitive Technology has equipped the DM30 with a formidable array of drivers: a 1-inch aluminum oxide dome tweeter for crisp high frequencies, four 5.25-inch BDSS™ midrange drivers with Linear Response Waveguides for clear and detailed mids, and a subwoofer system that includes an 8-inch driver flanked by dual 8-inch passive radiators. The BDSS™ technology ensures greater dispersion and reduces distortion, while the Linear Response Waveguides enhance imaging and off-axis response.

Intelligent Bass Control

The integrated subwoofer system is empowered by a 250W Class D amplifier, complemented by intelligent bass control. Users can tailor the bass output to their preference or room acoustics, ensuring that the low-end is always balanced and never overwhelming.

Connectivity and Compatibility

The DM30's nominal impedance of 6Ω (compatible with 8Ω systems) and recommended amplifier power of 50-300W make it a versatile match for a range of amplifiers and receivers. Its high sensitivity of 93dB also ensures that it can deliver loud, clear sound without requiring a tremendous amount of power.

Performance

Sound Quality

The DM30 shines across various content types. Its wide frequency response (36 Hz–30 kHz at -10dB) allows for full-range sound reproduction that captures the nuances of a complex orchestral score as effectively as it does the thunderous roar of an action film's climax. Dialogue is rendered with exceptional clarity, ensuring that every word is understood.

Power and Efficiency

With a sensitivity of 93dB, the DM30 is an efficient speaker that can produce substantial volume from relatively low-powered amplifiers. This efficiency does not come at the cost of sound quality; the DM30 maintains a clear and dynamic sound even at higher volumes.

Bass Performance

The inclusion of an integrated subwoofer with passive radiators is a standout feature. The DM30 delivers deep, impactful bass without the need for an external subwoofer. This all-in-one approach not only simplifies setup but also ensures that the bass is perfectly matched to the midrange and treble.

Installation and Setup

Placement Flexibility

Despite its size and weight, the DM30 offers some degree of placement flexibility. It is designed for horizontal orientation, fitting comfortably beneath a TV or projector screen. The intelligent bass control allows for further fine-tuning, compensating for placement near walls or in larger rooms.

Calibration and Settings

Calibrating the DM30's bass control to suit individual rooms and tastes might require some trial and error, but the effort is rewarded with a tailored listening experience. Definitive Technology's inclusion of variable bass control means that users can adjust the output to complement their room's acoustics without the need for external equalization.

Comparison with Competitors

When compared to other flagship center channel speakers, the DM30 holds its ground with its integrated subwoofer and intelligent features. While other speakers may offer more in terms of design customization, few can match the DM30's all-in-one convenience and audio fidelity.

Final Thoughts

The Definitive Technology Dymension DM30 is a formidable center channel speaker that excels in delivering a comprehensive audio experience. Its build quality, intelligent bass control, and all-inclusive design make it a standout choice for those seeking a centerpiece for their home theater's audio system. The DM30 is best suited for audiophiles who value sound fidelity and are looking for a robust, all-encompassing speaker that minimizes the need for additional components. Despite its few drawbacks in terms of weight and design customization, the DM30 offers exceptional value and performance that will satisfy even the most discerning listeners.
