Mythos Gem XL

About the Mythos Gem XL

The Definitive Technology Mythos Gem XL is a compact, high-definition satellite loudspeaker designed for use as front or surround speakers in home theater systems. It features two 4.5-inch long-throw mid/bass drivers angled in opposite directions to broaden midrange dispersion and a 1-inch ferrofluid-dampened pure aluminum dome tweeter for extended, smooth high frequencies. The speaker uses a sophisticated Linkwitz-Riley crossover network for seamless driver integration and is voice-matched with the complete Mythos Series. The enclosure is hand-polished gloss black aircraft-grade extruded aluminum with proprietary damping technologies for rigidity and resonance control. It can be wall-mounted using a keyhole slot or articulating brackets. The Mythos Gem XL delivers a wide, dynamic soundstage with pinpoint imaging and superb realism, suitable for audiophile-grade home theater performance when paired with a powered subwoofer like Definitive's SuperCube. Recommended amplifier power is 10 to 200 watts per channel, with a frequency response of 50 Hz to 30 kHz, nominal impedance of 8 ohms, and sensitivity of 89 dB. Dimensions are approximately 12.6" H x 5.5" W x 4.5" D, weighing about 7.25 lbs. A break-in period of 20-40 hours is suggested for optimal performance. The product includes a steel wall bracket and mounting template, and carries a 5-year warranty on drivers and cabinets.
