The RPS 1000 subwoofer incorporates high-quality components that produce the famous Boston Sound.
Unpacking the System Carefully unpack the subwoofer If there is any sign of damage from transit, report it immediately to your dealer and/or delivery service. Keep the shipping carton and packing materials for future use. Be sure to keep your purchase receipt in a safe place, as it may be required for warranty purposes. Placement Options Place the subwoofer next to a wall or in a corner near your main speakers. The sound is typically best when the subwoofer is within 15 feet (4.5m) of the main speakers.
Connections After your speakers are properly placed, you are ready to wire your system. NOTE: Power is always supplied to the subwoofer electronics unless it is unplugged or switched to the Mute position using the power switch located on the rear panel. The auto-on circuitry only activates or deactivates the power amplifier. Make sure your subwoofer and receiver are unplugged when making the connection. Power: When plugging your subwoofer in be sure to use a wall outlet, or dedicated electrical outlet.
Adjusting the Crossover Control When using the Line Level inputs (not the LFE input) the subwoofer's built-in crossover is engaged. As a starting point, set the crossover control on the subwoofer about 10Hz higher than the lower limit of your main speakers' bass response. Fine-tune the crossover setting by ear for the smoothest blend with your main speakers. The best setting of the crossover control will depend on speaker placement and personal preference.
Operation Audio On/Auto/Mute Plug the subwoofer's AC cord into a wall outlet. Do not use the outlets on the back of the receiver. Set the Audio On switch to the desired setting. AUDIO ON - The subwoofer audio is always on. AUTO - The subwoofer audio will turn on whenever a signal is detected. If no signal is detected after several minutes, it will automatically enter the Mute mode. MUTE - The subwoofer is muted and will not produce any sound.
Limited Warranty Boston Acoustics warrants to the original purchaser of an RPS 1000 subwoofer that it will be free of defects in materials and workmanship in its mechanical parts for a period of 5 years from the date of purchase. The warranty period for the electrical components is 1 year.
