Definitive Technology CS9060 Centre Channel Speaker

The CS9060 enhances your home cinema center channel with full range performance and incredible clarity. You’ll experience every thrilling moment—from vocals, to score, to special effects—with nuanced detail and powerful impact.

Full Range Performance
Clearly Superior
The CS9060 features high-performance BDSS mid/bass drivers, aluminum dome tweeters, and an integrated 8” powered subwoofer with Intelligent Bass Control. With the CS9060, you’ll hear center channel audio with a level of clarity and impact that’s unlike anything you have ever experienced before.

Integrated 8“ Subwoofer for powerful bass impact
The center channel is critical for more than just vocal clarity, it is also the location of much of the sound effects audio in films. Where most competitive center channel offerings narrowly focus only on reproducing voice dialog, the CS9060 integrates a powered 8” subwoofer for powerful impact—front and center where you expect it. In addition, the presence of a subwoofer in the center of your soundfield ensures more even bass distribution throughout the room.

Balanced Double Surround System™ for the best seat in the house
At the heart of the CS9060’s speaker array are two innovative 4.5” Balanced Double Surround System™ drivers, designed to always place you in the best seat in the house. BDSS improves driver excursion, allowing the CS9060’s mid/bass drivers to play lower and blend with its built-in subwoofer and bass radiator.

Because this technology is utilized across the entire BP9000 Series, when integrated with other BP9000 models, the CS9060 contributes to a more uniform midrange soundstage throughout your listening environment. That means anchored, centrally focused dialog; full range reproduction of scores and sound effects; and a seamless flow of panned audio from loudspeaker to loudspeaker.

Intelligent Bass Control for punch with clarity
Intelligent Bass Control, a Definitive Technology exclusive, enables you to experience powerfully impactful bass performance from the CS9060 without sacrificing optimal midrange clarity. Intelligent Bass Control achieves this by utilizing 56-bit digital signal processing to allow boosting of the bottom two octaves of your signal without altering the bass-to-midbass blending or crossover point. With Intelligent Bass Control, you’ll enjoy powerful center bass without drowning out the dialog.

Aluminum Dome Tweeters for crystal clear highs
The CS9060’s Aluminum Dome Tweeters feature ultralight, rigid construction that enables them to play significantly higher frequencies than we can hear with incredibly fast and accurate transient response. This provides effortless, distortion-free performance within and beyond the audible range—perfect for the enjoyment of high resolution audio.

Details Make The Difference. Designed for Performance
It’s not just the powerful bass and detailed driver performance that make the CS9060 the workhorse of your home theater sound system. We left no stone unturned in engineering optimal center channel experiences and the CS9060 features resonance-free cabinetry and a disappearing design that’s ideal for movie night.

Anti-Resonant Construction for clean and powerful sound
Strategically-placed bracing with aircraft grade aluminum creates maximum rigidity and contributes to a totally inert, resonance-free cabinet, providing improved accuracy for the CS9060.

Dissapearing Design for focus on what matters
The CS9060 is wrapped in an acoustically transparent black cloth grille that won’t affect the sound. And as soon as you dim the lights, they disappear into your room—so you can focus on the movie, not your speakers.

Beautiful Music, Too. Not Just for Home Cinema
All the advances that make the BP9000 series the ultimate home cinema speaker system apply to beautiful music reproduction as well. That’s why the CS9060 is also revered for its extraordinary musicality—it’s like sitting with the mix engineer when watching concerts or music videos, or when listening to multichannel audio from FLAC, Blu-ray or SACD sources.
