DM 603 S2
Floor-standing loudspeaker system
Product Summary
●The DM603 S2 is the entry level floor standing speaker in the 600 Series2. The speaker
comes into its own as a front speaker in larger Home Cinema installations and, as with
any model in the range, it is a superb monitor for 2-channel audio.
●The 21
/2-way system uses a second bass-only driver to supplement the output of the upper
bass/midrange driver in the lowest octaves. This arrangement improves system power
handling and reduces demands on the bass/midrange driver, which in turn improves
midrange clarity.
