Mythos Gem
Satellite/Surround Speaker System
Congratulations on your purchase of the Definitive
Technology Mythos Gem Satellite/Surround Speaker System.
This revolutionary loudspeaker utilizes state-of-the-art
components (homopolymer-coned bass-midrange drivers,
moving coil ferrofluid-cooled pure aluminum dome high
frequency radiators, uniphase crossover networks, etc.),
housed in a beautiful non-resonant polished aluminum
aircraft-grade cabinet in order to achieve the most lifelike
sound possible in your listening room for many years to come.
Your Mythos Gem is a unique speaker which may be used
as a high-performance rear or side surround matched with any
of our Mythos or any of our other fine speakers. In addition,
it is a superb front left and right satellite speaker which may
be combined with any of our subwoofers. Four Mythos Gem
speakers combined with a Mythos Seven center channel
and a Definitive subwoofer make a fantastic, complete,
high-performance home theater 5.1 speaker system.
Each loudspeaker leaves our plant in perfect condition. Any visible or concealed
damage most likely occurred in handling after it left our plant and should be
reported at once to your Definitive dealer or the shipping company which deliv-
ered your loudspeaker.
