D5C
Enjoy smooth, detailed highs with balanced mids and clean low frequencies in your dialogue and music with your amplifier and the piano black Definitive Technology Demand Series D5C Two-Way Center Channel Speaker. It features dual 5.25" polypropylene BDSS mid-woofers and a 1" aluminum dome tweeter. The tweeter is laterally offset upward to minimize symmetric diffraction off the corners of the front baffle. The tweeter also features a 20/20 Wave Alignment Lens to help enhance dispersion.
The D5C accepts 50 to 150W of power from your amplifier via its binding post inputs. An acoustically transparent speaker grille and a cleaning cloth are included.

2-Way Configuration
With its dual 5.25" BDSS driver configuration and a 1" aluminum dome tweeter, dialogue from movies and music is accurately reproduced. The D5C is designed to be voice matched to complement the Demand Series towers and bookshelf speakers for seamless integration into your home theater.
Wave Alignment Lens and Laterally Offset Tweeter Assembly
Aluminum tweeters are used due to their stiff, lightweight nature. They undergo an annealing process to shape and soften the material in order to dampen excess vibration. The 20/20 Wave Alignment Lens helps smooth high frequencies off the tweeter for enhanced dispersion and balanced listening nearly anywhere in your room. Further, the tweeter is offset to deliver a more precise center stereo image and minimize undesirable symmetric diffraction off the corners of the front baffle.
BDSS Mid-Woofers
The Balanced Double Surround System mid-woofers help provide greater linear excursion and output for augmented midrange detail.
Linear Response Waveguide
The Linear Response Waveguide is engineered to extend both on- and off-axis frequency response and improve dispersion for more natural midrange timbre and more precise imaging.
Extruded Aluminum Front Baffle
The aluminum front baffle has a bead-blasted finish designed to fit nearly any décor.
5-Layer Painted High-Gloss Cabinet
The cabinet is hand-crafted with a near-mirror finish.
Acoustically Transparent Magnetic Grille
The grille can be removed when you want to enjoy looking at the drivers uncovered, while enjoying natural, uncolored sound when it's on the speaker.
