DEMAND 17

Floorstanding speaker

• Definitive Technology Demand D17 high-performance tower speakers deliver full-range, room-filling sound and precise imaging from a modern, minimalistic design featuring an extruded Aluminium front baffle. Fill larger rooms with detailed Hi-Fi or home theatre sound with extended, controlled bass. The Demand Series outperforms the competition its price- class with more performance in a smaller form factor.
• Carbon fiber offers greater rigidity to the cone for deeper and cleaner bass notes, while preventing cone distortion that can occur with other less rigid materials.
• Our engineers have 30 years of accumulated knowledge in bipolar speaker configurations, now applied to the Demand Tower speakers. Dual integrated side-firing passive radiators produce extended low-frequency reproduction free of port noise, from a smaller enclosure design.
• Sophisticated cabinet bracing dramatically reduces vibration. Thanks to passive radiators instead of bass ports, speakers can be placed as close as you want to a wall, for maximum flexibility.
• The patented mid-range drivers provides greater linear excursion and output that results in superior mid-range detail and punchier bass compared to drivers of similar size. A 6.5“ driver equals an 8“ driver of other speakers in the price range.
• Delivering a clear, precise high frequency response. The 20/20 Wave Alignment Lens smooths high frequencies off the tweeter for improved dispersion and a rich and balanced listening experience anywhere in your room.
• A unique sonic signature feature of the Demand Series, the tweeter is offset to deliver a more precise center stereo image and eliminate undesirable symmetric diffraction off the corners of the front baffle.

• Patented Linear Response Waveguide extends both on and off axis frequency response, while improving dispersion for more natural midrange timbre and more precise imaging.
