🔍 Optimized for Search: Definitive Technology Procenter 1000 Compact Center Speaker - Single (Black) Review

Definitive Technology's ProCenter 1000 Center Speaker offers excellent sound quality at an affordable price ($300). I've only had a 2.1 system (front left, front right, subwoofer) and have always had problems with the dialogue. Adding this center channel speaker to my Polk towers and subwoofer has made a world of difference in performance! I just made some minor adjustments to my Denon AVR-3313CI AV Receiver (In-Command Series) to balance the sound and add a channel. I also used Definitive's…

I've been using the Sony Core series in home theater for several years, mostly satisfied, especially for the money. I happened to see this DefTech center for sale and decided to give it away. This center's ability to expand the soundscape from mids to highs is remarkable. It plays very well with the rest of my system. Where I used to hear crystal clear mids, that mid adds a certain "thump" to the sound cutting through the air. Where I previously relied on a high-end Rhythmik subwoofer for…

I've been building a home audio solution for a number of years, having bought a pair of Def Tech ProMon 800's for stereo listening. This center speaker has a coil tuned to the voice and is at a level above the 800s. The Procenter 1000 complemented my front stage, delivering clear and concise dialogue just like a center channel should. Take my advice with caution as this is my first "real" center channel speaker and the room I'm using it in is way too big (21ft x 18ft with a 20ft ceiling)…

As with many other reviews, I've had several center speakers over the years, most recently the Polk Audio Signature Series S35. The Polk S35 is a great sounding and well built speaker, but it's large, too big to fit in our TV/audio system stand and obscures the view of the lower TV screen. The size of the Definitive Technology ProCenter 1000 fits our booth perfectly. BENEFITS: Incredibly clear, precise and detailed sound from surround sources (TV and movies). The compact size allows for…

At this price point you're expected to read the review and be aware of any trade-offs you might make. with adding this center channel speaker to your system. I'm sorry to disappoint you. It clearly has the right presence, it pairs well with speakers from different brands, it projects dialogue from movies and shows with a beautiful and natural timbre, it loves vocals in music when listening in multi-channel stereo, and it shines in my entertainment center right below my TV to disappear from…

I'm not a fan of any type of speaker or company. I usually read reviews and pick something that fits my budget but sounds good quality. And I'm not the type to ask if you're interested in the most expensive or the highest speaker-equipped device. i like my music I like good sound. And I can appreciate the quality. However, I don't think it's necessary to "break the bank" to get decent music and sound out of your TV. And sometimes I like to listen to records. I wanted to slightly improve the…

There are many reviews of this center speaker so I'll be brief. This speaker would not have been my first choice. I was looking for a Definitive Technology speaker that would fit my entertainment center of a certain size. That speaker ended up being the Procenter 1000. I would have preferred a larger speaker given my setup, but I didn't have much of a choice given my size. I ordered the Pro1000 with the intention of returning it because it just couldn't reproduce the sound I wanted to hear. I…
