Definitive Technology Dymension DW-65 PRO In-Wall Speaker Review
Welcome to our in-depth Definitive Technology Dymension DW-65 PRO In-Wall Speaker review, where we unpack everything you need to know about this discreet powerhouse. Whether you’re crafting a dedicated home theatre, multi-room audio system or outdoor entertainment space, the DW-65 PRO delivers that iconic Definitive Technology sound signature with a virtually invisible footprint. Read on to discover why this in-wall marvel deserves a spot in your next custom audio install.
Elegant, Discreet Design & Effortless Installation
With its flush, border-free design and paintable, micro-perforated magnetic grille, the DW-65 PRO practically vanishes into your wall or ceiling. The integrated frame and baffle system ensure a seamless install—no unsightly lip or trim to disrupt your décor. Under the grille you’ll find a robust 6.5" mineral-filled woofer and a 1" aluminium oxide dome tweeter that pivots for precise sound direction.
Installation is a breeze thanks to the toolless two-piece mounting system with pivoting “dog” arms. Even tight ceilings—just 3.66" deep—won’t pose a problem. Pre-construction brackets are available if you’re planning ahead, and the included hole-cutting guide makes the perfect template for an accurate cutout every time.
The 1" dome tweeter pivots to direct crisp, clear highs to exactly where you need them. Whether you’re sitting dead-centre in your media room or hosting a garden party, the imaging remains lifelike and consistent across the listening area.
Mineral-Filled Woofer & Sophisticated Crossover
A rigid, 6.5" mineral-filled midwoofer delivers smooth, natural midrange reproduction, ideal for both detailed soundtracks and dynamic music playback. The premium crossover network ensures each driver operates within its optimal frequency range for balanced voicing and silky-smooth response from 46 Hz to 25 kHz (–3 dB).
IP55-Rated Weather Protection
Don’t limit your audio to indoor use. With IP55 ingress protection, the DW-65 PRO excels in high-humidity environments and sheltered outdoor areas. Rain or shine, you can trust these speakers to perform without compromise.
Who Should Consider the DW-65 PRO?
• Home theatre enthusiasts seeking a seamless, cinema-quality experience without bulky floor-standers.
• Custom installers and AV professionals requiring reliable, weather-protected speakers for both indoor and alfresco zones.
• Audiophiles who appreciate timbre-matching across the Dymension, Dymension CI and Mythos ranges, plus Descend Series subwoofers, for a cohesive system voice.
