| The Mythos ST's advanced technologies and superior materials bring you sonic perfection |
precision fit & finish with jaw-dropping ultra high-end performance.
No loudspeaker before them has achieved the balance of beauty and brawn
at anywhere near their modest price. The Mythos ST’s magic starts with a
sleek and sexy polished black cabinet mounted on a beautiful polished
granite base and continue with our most advanced components and
technologies. Topping off the ground-breaking design is the
incorporation of SuperCube™ powered subwoofers right into the
enclosures. With two built-in 300 Watt powered subwoofers you’ll enjoy
double the bass while saving floor space and enhancing the beauty of
your room.
The Case for Integrated Subwoofers
Besides eliminating the need for a floor space hogging separate
subwoofer, integrated subs offer dramatic performance benefits. First is
the obvious benefit that you’ll have two subwoofers in the room instead
of just one for simply more bass output. Most importantly the
subwoofers are perfectly integrated with the mid/high section.
Audiophiles often spend dozens of hours moving and adjusting their
subwoofers’ crossover and phasing controls in pursuit of perfect
subwoofer to main speaker “blending.” With the Mythos ST you won’t have
to go through that kind of hassle to get audio perfection. Definitive’s
engineers have perfectly adjusted the crossover and phase between the
subwoofer and main speaker sections to achieve seamless blending and
life-like sound. All you have to do is set the bass volume to match your
room and taste then sit back and enjoy audio perfection.
Rock-solid Stunning Enclosure
The Mythos ST’s styling emanates from a parabolic form, grounded as much
in technical appropriateness as visual beauty. With emphasis on a
narrow, deep column, the parabolic theme is repeated in the lines of the
cap and granite base. There is an unabashed acknowledgement of classic
“American Streamline” principles in the ST, communicating motion,
direction and clean utility.
The slim, curved shape of the enclosure reduces diffraction contributing
to the ST’s remarkable imaging that is truly startling in its ability
to float utterly lifelike sonic images across a broad and deep
soundstage. The granite base combined with the heavy Toroidal
transformer mounted on the bottom plate of the enclosure provides a low
center of gravity for superior stability. The base incorporates 5
adjustable-height metal feet that may be fitted with either smooth
furniture glide tips for wood or ceramic floors or spikes for carpeted
floors.
Ultra-high Definition Midrange Drivers
Each Mythos ST contains a D’Appolito array consisting of two
high-definition 5-1/4 inch drivers surrounding a one inch dome tweeter
housed in an acoustically isolated sealed enclosure. The drivers feature
Definitive’s patent-pending Balanced Double Surround System (BDSS) technology
that supports the speaker cone at both the inner and outer edges for
longer, more linear excursion, greater clarity and finely textured inner
detail. The driver baskets are die cast Aluminum.
New Generation Tweeter is Revelation
The tweeter is a pure aluminum dome, which has been heat-treated to
relax the crystal structure and then coated with a ceramic to produce
extended highs that reveal nuance and shimmer without a trace of
edginess.
Revolutionary Subwoofer System
The subwoofer is built around a 6 x 10 inch racetrack-shaped
polymer/carbon composite cone driver powered by a built-in 300-Watt
Class D amplifier and pressure-coupled to two 6 x 10 inch
racetrack-shaped planar low-bass radiators for a total bass radiating

greater
than a 15 inch woofer but with far greater control, definition and
speed than a single sluggish large woofer. A pair of STs is like having
two 15 inch, 300-Watt powered subwoofers in your room without taking up
all the floor space. The result is bass that is deep, powerful and
impactful while at the same time having the kind of tight, controlled
and accurate response of the finest and costliest audiophile speakers.

Sonic Versatility to Meet Your Every Listening Need
The precise accuracy, wide range response and high impact dynamic range
of the Mythos ST makes it the perfect choice for systems ranging from
audiophile 2-channel music-only to 7.1 channel home theater systems. No
matter what genres or music or movies you enjoy a highly accurate
loudspeaker like the Mythos ST is your wisest choice.
The Sound Will Amaze You
We could write adjectives all day long in an attempt to describe just
how good the Mythos ST sounds and we would fall far short of capturing
the experience. If you are a true music lover, you need to hear them for
yourself to discover just how lifelike a pair of speakers can sound.
You’ll hear depth and nuance to your music you have never heard before
(unless you own a pair of speakers several times the cost of the ST).
You will marvel at the dynamic impact and sheer bass power when watching
movies, amazed that all that power is coming from just two small towers
without a separate subwoofer. Yes, you will be astonished.
