BLS-B(C) Black (and Cherry)

Congratulations on your purchase of Outlaw Audio Loudspeakers. You now own a pair of one of the finest bookshelf speakers available. The Outlaw Bookshelf Loudspeakers provide remarkable performance in their price range. True to even the most demanding source material, your new Outlaw Loudspeakers won’t skip a beat.

After a brief “break-in” period, you’ll discover a sound that maintains its image regardless of where you are in the room, a low frequency response that is both deep and controlled that belies its compact size, and a natural timbre that sustains the important midrange integrity of the very best recordings.

This is all accomplished through precision engineering and meticulous manu- facturing standards here in the United States. From our custom designed tweeter built with precision Scandanavian parts to 100% film capacitors, the Outlaw Bookshelf Loudspeaker’s design and assembly takes nothing for granted. In the manufacturing process every Outlaw Loudspeaker is measured and calibrated to match our reference design plus or minus 0.5 dB. That means your pair of speakers will be virtually identical, a standard that is only found in the world’s finest loudspeakers.

The many features of the Outlaw Bookshelf Loudspeakers include:

A custom designed 25mm soft dome tweeter with copper cap, vented former, ferro fluid cooling and a full video shield and bucking magnet to virtually eliminate any stray magnetic forces

A long throw 5-1/4" SEAS woofer, for deep controlled bass extension

Identically sized (internal and external) port baffle areas to equalize in- ternal and external air pressures, and to provide fully symmetrical woofer excursion

Internal and external matching port flares to provide virtually inaudible air turbulence

Furniture grade cabinetry including book-matched veneers for cherry finish and high-quality, hand-painted black finish on MDF

True Bi-amp/Bi-wire design using precision five-way binding posts with separate crossovers for woofer and tweeter

A proprietary 3-position Boundary Compensation switch for wall and corner placement

A proprietary 3-position High Frequency switch to compensate for either heavily dampened or live rooms

We encourage you to carefully follow the setup information provided in the following pages to ensure you get every last note of audiophile performance from your new speakers.
