By Wahter
I have a pair of these Definitive Technology BP10B speakers as the main speakers in my home theater. They replaced a pair of Kef C95 main speakers which have the Uni-Q driver. Although the Uni-Q drivers produce a very crisp sound, those Kef Speakers only reached down to 50Hz and so, they didn't have as wide of a frequency range as the Definitive Technology BP10B speakers. Definitive Technology claims these speakers go all the way down to 20Hz; I'm not sure if they do, but they definitely go further down than the Kef speakers. Also the BP10B speakers are bi-polar and IMHO, radiate the sound wider. Some people don't like the bi-polar speakers, but I do. I was really impressed how much better these sound then the Kef (which to be fair, were older).After the destruction of the World Trade Center in 9/11, the pipe organ at the Trinity Church in New York was damaged. Sixty Definitive Technology BP10B speakers were chosen to replace the pipes - one for each pipe. You can read about this on the definitive technology website.The Definitive Technology BP10B speakers produce a sharp upper frequency, a rich midrange and deep low frequency sound. I didn't choose the Super Towers (with the built in subwoofer) because I already have the original Definitive Technology Powerfield subwoofer. I also have the Definitive Technology C/L/R 3000 center channel speaker and the BP-2 surround sound speakers. All match sonically and sound very well together (the BP10B has the same 6.5" drivers as the C/L/R 3000). I highly recommend this speaker (in pairs of course).

By A. R. Smithee
I switched from a 5.1 system to a 7.1, and bought these speakers to replace my Polks as the main speakers, relegating the Polks to surround speakers. These speakers create a spaciousness of sound that the Polks could not reproduce. The bipolar technology definitely makes a difference, especially when listening to a good concert DVD in DTS master audio. You will still need a good subwoofer with these speakers, because they are only adequate to about 60 hertz. You may never get these speakers discounted like some other brands, but they are worth the money spent in my opinion.

By T. Thompson
I had a pair of the original BP10's and, very stupidly, sold them about 14 years ago. I absolutely loved those speakers! I actually had traded them in for a pair of the then flagship model BP2000's with the built-in 15" subs. The BP2000's were great speakers in their own right, but were really too much speaker for the room that I had them in at the time. If you're looking for a great pair of mains for a surround system, you can't go wrong with the BP10's. Like it says in the ad, the bass is incredible and gives you the option of saving money by not puchasing a sub. If you do choose to add a sub to these, make sure it is a very, very good and very, very powerful one. If it's not, you will regret spending the money. The bass you get with these speakers is that good! The tweeters in these are exceptional also, crystal clear and never sounding tinny or harsh. When I first considered purchasing a bi-polar speaker I was primarily concerned about accuracy. My concerns were alleviated the first time I watched a DVD with these bad boys. Matched with the BPX surrounds and a Definitive center channel (can't remember the model#) and I had one incredible surround system. All I can say is if you decide to buy the BP10's, be smart enough to keep them. I wasn't, and I have regretted it for a long time. If I were in the market for a pair of mains for a surround system today there's no question what I would purchase. It's the BP10's...again.
