Definitive Pro Cinema Series: ProCenter 1000
ProCinema Series systems and speakers share the same legendary engineering and technology as the best Definitive Technology floorstanding loudspeakers driven by proprietary innovations such as BDSS™ drivers, annealed aluminum dome tweeters, and anti-resonance cabinetry — in compact designs that fit any room. With a wide array of mix-and-match speaker choices and an all-in-one system option, your high end home cinema system is as simple as a click away, or as configurable as you need it to be.
Highlights & Key Technologies
BDSS™ Mid/Bass Drivers
All ProCinema Series speakers including the ProCenter 1000 feature our patented Balanced Double Surround System (BDSS™). The dual surrounds allow for greater cone excursion, enabling the ProCenter 1000's dual 4.5" midrange/woofers to produce the bass of a larger driver, while remaining the perfect size for detailed, silky-smooth midrange. Plus, their Linear Response Waveguide extends both the on- and off-axis frequency response, while improving dispersion imaging, and the cast basket provides a muscular, anti-resonant frame for the additional cone excursion.
Ferrofluid Cooled Aluminum Tweeter
All ProCinema Series speakers including the ProCenter 1000 utilize the same aluminum tweeter material as our top floorstanding speakers. Aluminum is light and stiff, making it the ideal material for a driver that must move beyond 20,000 times per second to reproduce the highest frequencies we can hear. You’ll hear clean, detailed highs that produce “air” and dimension in the room.
Anti Resonant Cabinet
ProCenter 1000 is housed in a super-tough, anti-resonant PolyStone™ enclosure. The dense, acoustically inert material, along with PC1000’s acoustically transparent grilles, means that you hear only what the artist intended—not the speaker cabinet.
Built In Stand
The ProCenter 1000 center channel speaker features a built-in wall-mount with a pair of optional ProMounts, using its two built-in threaded inserts.
Passive Bass Radiators
ProCenter 1000’s secret weapon for improved bass is their dual passive bass radiators. The 4.5” planar radiator, pressure-coupled to the BDSS midrange/woofer, significantly increases the bass-generating surface area without increasing the cabinet size. The result: room-friendly speakers with room-filling bass.
Available Center Channel
When building a ProCinema Series home theater system, choose between the ProCenter 1000 and the ProCenter 2000 center channel speakers. Both speakers share identical form factors, with non-resonant PolyStone cabinets, aluminum dome tweeters, BDSS mid/bass drivers, and passive radiators. The ProCenter 2000, with its larger BDSS drivers and passive radiators, is for larger rooms.
