Review Summary

Purchased two of the speakers from Crutchfield. One failed 14 months after purchase the second one failed just outside the five year warranty. Very disappointed given the price paid for these units. There are more reliable, less expensive alternatives to consider.

I bought these for my back yard. Every time someone comes over they always ask what brand the speakers are. Everyone loves the way they sound. Very clear! 2 of my brother n laws already bought a pair.

I have these hooked for about 2 weeks. They are hooked up to the emotiva PT1 and emotiva A-300 amp. They sound clear and great at lower volumes, but if you play at a higher volume (which is what we like) the base becomes harsh and crackles. I even called def tech before ordering to be sure the speakers would pair well with my emotive equipment. So I'm going to assume it's a speaker issue not a component issue.

These outdoor speakers sound very nice on our back patio. We're fortunate to have a covered portico where we were able to mount them vertically with opposing side walls to reflect passive radiator bass sound equally. We have an older Yamaha Aventage A/V receiver which provides 150 watts per channel to our zone 2 Def Techs, controlled wirelessly through the Yamaha controller app. The speakers play background music sweetly at low volume, and really pump out nice, full range sound when cranked up. Bass is quite good at party volume. Have to be very careful not to get kicked out of the neighborhood! Very happy with our purchase.

This is my second pair of these and I'll be ordering a third to complete my system. Amazing sound, well worth the investment! 3rd year on my first pair without issue.

Had them now for 7 years and use them almost every day. They sounded better than I would have expected. Used them in my home theater setup, very wife friendly and paintable (White. Matched with a Rythmik sub the system home theater sounds like I'm at the movies.

The AW6500's Aluminum Dome Tweeters are constructed with ultralight, rigid materials, enabling them to play significantly higher frequencies than we can hear, ensuring distortion-free performance within and beyond the audible range. The 6.5" woofers, featuring the innovative Balanced Double Surround System (BDSS), deliver deep audio throughout your outdoor space, providing clear, impactful sound.
The speaker's integrated waveguide smooths off-axis response for broad, even dispersion and better imaging throughout your space. The deeply drawn mineral-filled polymer cone, engineered using sophisticated 3D modeling techniques, ensures wide-range performance.
