Definitive Technology Mythos One Handbuch

ndustrial design is sometimes just as important

as performance in today’s marketplace. There

are cars that are fast, but those that speak to

our tastes aesthetically will always win out for our

dollars. Deﬁnitive Technology’s latest lineup of

Mythos loudspeakers offer that rare combination

of substance and style, and do exceedingly well

at both.

The Mythos One tower loudspeaker is a thin,

tube-like construction that is ﬁnished out of alu-

minum, in either silver or black. It can be mated

with the Mythos Three center speaker, and in my

case, also mated with a pair of the Mythos Two

surround speakers. Integrating this stalwart sys-

tem with my existing SuperCube I subwoofer from

Deﬁnitive Technology was a no-brainer, and the

result was outstanding.

Installation Issues

Installing this system took about 20 minutes, and

that is pretty fast, considering that it includes the

assembly of the beautiful glass bases that come

with the Mythos One tower speakers. The Mythos

Two and Three models all come with wall-mount

brackets, and I used those to great beneﬁt, making

the speakers virtually blend into the room, achiev-

ing a custom look in minutes. You can even route

your cables through the walls to come out behind

the speakers, and you won’t even see any signs of

installation.

Performance/Features

Once the system was warmed up, and had played

some loud music for a few hours, it was time to

start listening. On multichannel movie material,

such as the outstanding Superbit edition of Spider-

Man, the DTS (digital theater systems) soundtrack

was over the top. The performance of the Mythos

speaker system beats that of systems costing many

times as much, and it’s not even surprising.

The Mythos One tower speakers offer so much

punch and substance to a soundtrack, that it feels

as if you have six subwoofers in the room. The

Mythos Three center speaker also achieves the

unimaginable, as it blends perfectly with the rest of

the system, and projects voices and music solidly.

The Mythos Two surround speakers round out the

system, and as they are virtually the same as the

center speaker and front right and left speakers

(aside from the bass output), the blend from front

to back is seamless.

The Last Word

This speaker system is one of the most beautiful

aesthetically and greatest performers to come onto

the marketplace in the past ﬁve years. Continuing

the Bang & Olufsen approach aesthetically but

also offering great performance at a great price,

there is no competition here. With plasma TVs in

mind, providing a myriad of design choices for

your room, these speakers really have no match.

We can’t recommend them highly enough. EH
