Description

Thank you for purchasing the PRi series CV speakers. These speakers incorporate high-quality components that produce the famous Boston sound. They are housed in a metal enclosure that makes them easy to install and meet the stringent requirements of electrical codes throughout the country for plenum-rated enclosures. Such enclosures are often required by building codes in commercial applications and residential applications such as townhomes or condominiums. They have built-in transformers for use is constant voltage distribution systems— either 70V or 100V depending on the country in which it is used. So they are ideally suited for multi-speaker commercial installations.

The bass drivers in the PRi models have a DCD mica-filled copolymer cone with a butyl rubber surround. An inte- grated, forward-facing tuned port extends bass response. The soft dome tweeters of the PRi665 and PRi685 have a pivoting mount. Insulation inside the enclosures helps control resonances and improves room-to-room isolation.

About Installation

NOTE: This manual is written for the professional installer and assumes skill in the proper use of hand and power tools, knowledge of local building and fire codes, and a familiarity with the environment behind the wall or ceil- ing in which the speakers will be installed. It is the professional installer’s responsibility to install the speakers correctly and to make sure that local codes are met. Boston Acoustics strongly recommends the use of safety cables in all installations.

Read this manual completely before beginning the installation. Have a plan for each step of the entire installa- tion. Please keep your manual in a safe place in case you need to refer to it later.

The grille and frame of the PRi speaker can be painted to match its surroundings. If you plan to paint your speakers, see the information in the “Painting the PRi Speakers” section on page 12.

WARNING: Always turn off the amplifier or receiver when connecting speakers or any other components to the system.
