“Definitive Technology’s Mythos ST-L ($4999.90/pair), however, is a different kettle of fish. Each ST-L has a built-in 1200W amplifier powering its 10” x 6” “racetrack” bass driver, which is augmented by two passive radiators of the same size. The DefTech is a true full-range design that can play ridiculously loud. Its bass level can be tailored via remote control or rear-mounted buttons, and its bass is less punchy than the Silver Phantom’s but better controlled. Like the KEF R900, the Mythos’s bass output remains linear well past the point where the Devialet’s begins to struggle. The Mythos ST-L — my long-term reference — is decidedly a “big room” speaker. But bass aside, I preferred the Silver Phantoms to the Mythos ST-Ls. The Devialets’ stupendous imaging, gorgeous midrange, and punchy, full-range bass at reasonable listening volumes will make them excellent companions in the right space.”
