Definitive Technology Mythos Gem Black

Big sound from sleek, compact speakers

"...Indeed impressive... I revved up the title song of John Fogerty's recent CD Déjà Vu All Over Again and immediately received an adrenaline rush from the high-energy production pouring out of the Gems."
                         — Sound & Vision

The Definitive Technology Mythos Gem is the most diminutive member of the highly lauded Mythos line of high-performance, lifestyle oriented speakers.

• Two high-definition 3-1/2 inch high definition mid/bass drivers for life-like clarity and three-dimensional imaging
• Aircraft-grade extruded aluminum enclosure with proprietary damping technologies ensures total rigidity and perfectly accurate sound
• 1-inch Pure Aluminum dome tweeter creates unequaled high-frequency extension, detail and smoothness
• Easily mounts on the wall with integrated keyhole slot or optional articulating brackets

Definitive Technology's Mythos Gem takes the distinctive Mythos look (featuring a stunning, hand-polished aluminum enclosure) and delivers it in a conveniently compact form. Since they're voice-matched with all the other models in the Mythos Series, they're perfect for use as surround speakers in a system made up of larger Mythos main speakers. Or you can use four of them along with any Mythos center channel speaker and SuperCube subwoofer to create a small but mighty home theater.

Leading-edge engineering technology infuses the Mythos Gem with the characteristics Definitive Technology speakers are known for: wide, dynamic soundstage, pinpoint imaging, and superb realism. These compact enclosures contain proprietary damping technologies that ensure total rigidity, angled mid/bass drivers in PolyStone baffles, and sophisticated Linkwitz-Riley Crossover Networks to more perfectly blend the drivers into a sonically seamless audio environment.

Mount up!
A keyhole slot bracket with mounting screw makes it easy to mount the Mythos Gem on the wall, or you can use the GemStand (available separately), which is specially designed to match the Mythos Series and hide the speaker wires for a clean look. Optional articulating wall-mount brackets are also available.

Nothing complements your high definition flat screen television with more style, versatility and sheer performance than the beautiful Mythos Series models.

The best components
Each Mythos Gem contains two 3-1/2 inch mid/bass drivers that are angled in opposite directions. This design broadens the midrange dispersion and produces the diffuse soundfield that's highly desirable, especially for surround loudspeakers. Use the Mythos Gems for surround and front channel duties and you'll be rewarded with spacious and enveloping surround effects that will make you feel like you're actually in the movie. The bass roll-off of the Mythos Gem is smooth and controlled, allowing it to seamlessly blend with a powered subwoofer (such as Definitive's SuperCubes) for superb power and precision. The 1-inch Pure Aluminum dome tweeter produces extended highs that reveal nuance and shimmer without a trace of edginess.
