Will it strike out or strike up the band Even if youre not a baseball fan, youve probably heard of Mark McGwire.Yet, despite his imposing form and incredible swing, McGwire (like most power hitters) strikes out with some regularity.Of course, whos going to complain to a guy who has hit 72 home runs in a single season Sandy Gross, founder of Definitive Technology, is the Mark McGwire of hi-fi.Somehow, this guy has been able to come up with one incredible speaker home run after another.
As a result, there are two problems when reviewing a Def Tech speaker system. The first is that there has been so much praise and adulation penned in the past that its hard to be complimentary without being repetitive. The second problem comes when its time to pack up the speakers and ship them away. My cousins cat diedso much stressI havent had time to listen. I need another week Eventually, though, the painful time comes, and there you are with tears and packing tape, handing off your newfound loves to an oblivious UPS guy.

Visually, the BP2006TLs follow the wildly popular form of their bigger brothers. A black fabric sock covers all but the last inch or so of the top and bottom of the speaker, where black-lacquered end caps add an elegant touch.
