Please Inspect For Shipping Damage

Each loudspeaker leaves our plant in perfect condition. Any

visible or concealed damage most likely occurred in handling

after it left our plant and should be reported at once to your

Definitive dealer or the shipping company which delivered

your loudspeaker.

Congratulations

Congratulations on your purchase of the Definitive

Technology BPX Bipolar Surround/Satellite Speaker

System. This revolutionary loudspeaker utilizes state-

of-the-art components (cast-basket homopolymer-

coned bass/midrange drivers, moving coil

ferrofluid-cooled dome high-frequency radiators,

uniphase crossover networks, etc.), a non-resonant

monocoque cabinet and low-diffraction construction in

order to achieve the most lifelike sound possible in

your listening room for many years to come. The

BPX is a compact, high-quality bipolar (equal sound

radiates both front and rear) speaker system intended

primarily for use as a rear surround, side surround

and/or center rear speaker in Dolby Pro Logic*, Dolby

Digital*, Dolby EX*, DTS* and all 5.1, 6.1 and 7.1

surround sound systems. In addition, it can also be

used as a front “effects” speaker in multi-channel DSP

systems or as a front main left and right speaker.

Speaker System

It is critical for proper performance that all speakers (left, right, center and rear) be

connected in proper phase. Note that one terminal on each speaker (+) is colored red

and the other (-) is colored black. Please make certain that you connect the red (+)

terminal on each speaker to the red (+) terminal of its channel on your amplifier or

receiver and the black (-) terminal to the black (-) terminal. It is essential that all

speakers be connected in the same way to the amplifier (in phase). If you experience

a great lack of bass, it is likely that one speaker is out of phase with the others.

The BPXs are designed to be extremely flexible in terms of their placement

when used as rear surround, side surround or center rear surround speakers. Their

bipolar radiation characteristics make them perfect for Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby

Digital, Dolby EX, DTS and all 5.1, 6.1 and 7.1 decoding systems. They may be

used on the side walls, rear walls or in the rear corners of the listening room. When

placed along the side walls the speakers should normally be located adjacent to or

behind the listening position. The speakers may also be placed near the rear corners

of the room or located on the rear wall. If you have your couch or listening position

near or against the rear wall, we suggest rear wall placement of the BPXs with them

positioned on either side of the couch and in from the side wall. High placement is

preferred; however, midwall or floor placement is acceptable. Normally speakers

would be hung on the wall with the input connection plate up against the wall;

however, the BPXs may also be placed on shelves or stands. Of course, experimen-

tation is encouraged to get the best performance in your particular room. As a start-

ing point, we suggest mounting the speakers on the side walls behind the listening

position about 3-6 feet off the floor and halfway between the listening position and

the rear wall.

Because of their superb performance characteristics, the BPXs can also be used

as a front main system. In this configuration they should normally be placed about

6-8 feet apart approximately at ear level with the inside facing baffle, which has

drivers mounted on it, facing towards the listening position.

Usually if distortion is heard when the speakers are being driven at

loud levels, it is caused by driving (turning up) the amplifier too loud and

not by driving the speakers with more power than they can handle.

Remember, most amplifiers put out their full-rated power well before the

volume control is turned all the way up! If your speakers distort when you

play them loud, turn down the amplifier or get a bigger amplifier.

Each set of BPXs comes with a pair of optional mounting plates which may be

used to hang the speakers on the wall. To use these plates, simply fasten the plates

(with the round hole at the bottom of the plate) to the rear panel of the speaker.

Please note that there is a recess routed under the grill cloth on the top half of the

rear of the speaker (above the input connecting plate) into which the mounting plate

fits (sandwiching the cloth between the plate and cabinet, when the mounting plate

is pressed into the recess). Simply feel for the recess and press the mounting plate

into it, fastening it into the cabinet with the provided screws. Use a toggle bolt or

other similar anchored fastener in the wall to hold the screw which the mounting

plate will hang on. Do not use an unanchored screw in the wall.

The BPXs are ideal for use as front effects speakers in DSP installations. They

should be placed on the front wall with the wire terminals against the wall and the

speakers separated by approximately two-thirds of the front wall. Placement above ear

level is recommended if possible; however, lower placement is possible, if necessary.

It is our pleasure to offer assistance if you have any questions regarding your

BPXs or their setup. Please contact your nearest Definitive Technology dealer or

Service and warranty work on your Definitive loudspeakers will normally be

performed by your local Definitive Technology dealer. If, however, you wish to

return the speaker to us, please contact us first, describing the problem and request-

ing authorization as well as the locations of the nearest factory service center.

Please note that the address given in this booklet is the address of our

offices only. Under no circumstances should loudspeakers be shipped to

our offices or returned without contacting us first and obtaining return

authorization.
