The Definitive Technology DW-MAX SUR is a premium in-wall bipolar surround speaker designed to create an expansive, cinematic sound experience. Featuring a unique bipolar array, this speaker orients its dual 5.25″ mineral-filled BDSS woofers and dual 1″ aluminum oxide dome tweeters on opposite-facing planes, ensuring an immersive, wraparound soundstage that enhances the realism of home theater audio.
With its Linear Response Waveguide™, the DW-MAX SUR delivers even, balanced sound across the entire listening area, while the Balanced Double Surround System (BDSS™) enhances driver excursion for punchy bass and clear midrange. The three-position high-frequency level switch (-2 dB, flat, +2 dB) allows users to fine-tune the treble response based on room acoustics.
The speaker’s discreet, low-profile design includes a paintable, magnetic grille, ensuring it blends seamlessly into any space. Toolless installation with pivoting “dog” arms allows for quick, hassle-free mounting. Additionally, the IP55-rated construction protects against dust and humidity, making it suitable for both indoor and covered outdoor use.
Perfect for side or rear surround channels, the DW-MAX SUR delivers premium performance with a wide sound dispersion and timbre-matching to other Definitive Technology Dymension and Mythos speakers.
