Ask away -- I'll be happy to throw in my $0.02 cents worth. For several years, I used BP 2000s for the front left and right mains with a C/L/R 2000 center and BP 20s for the surrounds. (I am still using the BP 2000s and BP20s in a 7.1 configuration.)
Anticipating one possible question, over time, despite the so-called "built in subwoofers" in the BP 2000s, I found myself dissatisfied with the depth of the bass (not the volume, but how low it could go at volume) and ended up getting a stand alone subwoofer that went deeper into the sub bass frequencies and could be placed more optimally for bass than the towers which I placed for imaging, soundstage, etcetera. If I were building a Def Tech system from scratch today, I'd go with towers without the "built in subs" and get the same model all around (with the possible exception of the center) and add a beefy Velodyne, SVS, Vandersteen or HSU stand-alone sub.

Here's my question. I have 2000s which are TLs as well. Which hook-up have you found to be the most optimal? I bi-wire the highs and mids and had been running the sub cable to the full range low level in with the sub turned off in the processor as the instructions state, but then Def Tech themsleves told me they no longer liked this configuration and advised that I bi wire but then run the sub cable into the LFE input with the sub on. Anyway, either way sounds simply amazing and for movies I get incredible tight and loud bass out of both 500 watt subs, but its nice to have another opinion. Regardless, I have some free cash and now I am looking to sell the 2000TLs at a deep discount which I posted, and would be looking to buy the Def Tech 7000s which have reference supercubes built into each one. Please give me your opinions on all of this and if you know someone who wants a great pair of broken-in speakers less than a year old, let me know as well.
Thanks.

I had the same idea. I realized I only needed more bass, so I saved some money from not buying the 7000's and I bought the Reference sub. Worked out good. I have the bass from the reference as well as the 2000 towers.Comment

Hi,
Newbie here and planning to save up for my home theater. I got a good deal on the Anthem PVA7 amp from a Montreal dealer that I couldn't pass up (it is an amazing amp for two channel...what a surprise!!). I am thinking of purchasing the AVM20 next year.

Has anyone had experience with the def tech ProCinema systems? I'm partucularly interested in the ProCinema 100. These will be matched with Marantz 5500. I've also been looking at the Paradigm Cinema series.
I would like to keep the speakers small but retain some feel of larger sytems.... -
I installed the Def Tech ProMonitor 80s with (Sub and center) about 10 days ago. Depending on the source, sometimes they sound fantastic, other times not stellar (perhaps I don't have the crossover right yet). They sound nice with Jazz and Classical, but just ok with Pop. (99.9% of my music comes... -
Anyone have any experience with these? Opinions?
Im looking at the SuperCube Reference, 14" sub with two 14" radiators and 1800 watts. My plan is to get one sub, and poss a second down the road to balance it out.
At 111 lbs, it sure seems like a beast! Im gonna see if... -
Hello,
I have a Def Tech SuperCube 2 amp plate that I would like to build off. I've never done a speaker/sub build and wanted to get opinions on drivers that would work well with this. Based on what I've read so far, I am leaning towards a down firing 12" - 15" sealed sub. I will be...
