Groundbreaking speaker technology
These lightweight speakers are loaded with heavyweight technology. The D11 features an offset aluminum dome tweeter coupled with a 20/20 Wave Alignment Lens that creates a precise and centered stereo image free of unwanted distortion and speaker vibration. The D11 also features Definitive Technology's patented Balanced Double Surround System (BDSS) midrange/woofer. But you don’t need to be an audio engineer to appreciate the D11. This speaker delivers crystal clear highs, lush, full mids and detailed, powerful bass.
Sleek and stylish design
The Definitive Technology Demand Series D11 High performance bookshelf speaker is small enough to be hidden away on a shelf and attractive enough to be placed on display in any room. Each speaker cabinet is handcrafted, creating a modern yet timeless design. Each cabinet is painted with five layers of premium black gloss paint creating a mirror like effect and the speaker’s t magnetic black grille provides natural, uncolored sound and can be easily removed whenever you want to show the speaker off.
Quality components
Theses speakers are housed inside a resonance-deadening MDF cabinets - a true wonder of acoustic engineering. An integrated passive bass radiator produces deep low-end, and eliminates distortion. Precision engineered aluminum tweeters deliver articulate and detailed high frequencies. And the magnetic black speaker grille is acoustically transparent, not coloring or shaping your sound. All of these components work together to create a crystal-clear listening experience -- richly reproduces everything from Tchaikovsky to hip-hop and everything in between.
Elevate your audio
Put your music on the pedestal it deserves. Purchase the optional ST1 Speakers Stands and elevate your D11 speakers to the optimal listening height, and a solid foundation.

Flawless sound, and drop dead gorgeous!
First, DefTech is the best, they have stood behind their products forever, and they are constantly evolving. Second, customer service is amazing, Adam knows who I am when I call, and Chet couldn't be any cooler or more helpful=what a great company to do business with.
As for these D11's, unlike the pictures, i started with them in my bedroom, running an Onkyo RZ810 on pure stereo, Bi amped, no subwoofer-table top set up. Listening to some Phil collins just running through my receiver via wifi, I was immediately pulled in-these Demand series are so engaging, they play so musically and clean, with effortless detail, clarity, and warmth. i have toggled over the last 2 weeks or so with all manner of music, other than punk rock or the like, and it all sounds soooo good-classic Definitive where the instruments sound like the instruments. I look so forward to the end of my workday, when I can kick back and listen to music through these utterly beautiful modern looking bookshelves. The fact that these speakers can play so well before being remotely broken in must be a testament to the incredible engineering and thought that this company puts into their product. Today i moved these speakers to my computer table (Mythos back on track in the bedroom. I'm running them now with a Rotel receiver, with a built in cd player and they again sound so good. I think it's so important to consider the room and distance etc before making full judgements on a speakers character. I'm not an engineer, but I would imagine that these speakers are so pure and frequency flat, that you really want to pay attention to placement and room modes. I recently was in a listening room where i could listen to higher priced offerings compared to these speakers. although one or 2 other brands sounded good, I was just blown away at how much better these sounded, in one case at half the price. i just can't say enough good things about these D11's, if you are in the market, I would urge anyone to run and give these a critical listen, I believe you will love them as I do.
So thank you DefTech, you never disappoint, and in the case of the Demand series, you truly exceeded what I thought was possible at this price point.

Cristal clear sound and beautiful design
I received my D11 speakers together with the floor stands a few weeks ago. I couldn't be any happier with them. Not only is the look elegant, but the sound performance is brilliant. Highs and mids are very distinct and the bass spreads evenly in the room. I'm very glad I replaced my old set-up of speakers with including center and external bass.
