NOTE: Power is always supplied to the VPS 210 electronics unless it is unplugged or switched to the off position using the power switch located on the top panel. The auto-on circuitry only activates or deactivates the power amplifier. Make sure your subwoofer and receiver are unplugged when making connections.

Power Connection: Connect the power cord to the power input. Then plug the power cord directly into a wall outlet. Some audio

receivers components provide auxiliary power outlets We suggest that you do not use them. They may not be able to provide the

amount of current or proper isolation required by a power ampli- fier, such as the one in the VPS 210.

Connecting to a Digital Home Theater System Using the LFE Input

Digital 5.1, 6.1 and 7.1 home theater electronics dedicate one channel (the “.1”) to reproduce the special low-frequency (LFE) information (such as explosions and thunder) contained in digitally- encoded soundtracks.

Select ”subwoofer-yes” from your receiver’s set-up menu. Hooked up this way, the receiver’s amplifier

is relieved of having to reproduce the difficult low bass signals that can drive the receiver into audible distortion. In some cases it can also depend on several other settings within a receiver. We recommend consulting your receiver manual for further assistance in this area.

Use an RCA cable (not included), as shown, to connect your digital receiver’s LFE subwoofer output to the subwoofer. Con- nect the other end to the LFE input.

Connecting to a Stereo or Dolby® Pro Logic® System

For stereo or Dolby Pro Logic systems use the “sub out” connection from your receiver to one of the VPS 210 Line Level inputs marked “L” and “R”.

Connecting to Electronics Without a Subwoofer Output

If your system does not have a subwoofer or LFE output you can connect the VPS 210 to a preamp output. Use a stereo RCA cable (not included) to connect the preamp outputs to the Line Level inputs marked “L” and “R”.

high-powered subwoofer specifications

Boston Acoustics, a name synonymous with high-quality audio, offers a range of high-powered subwoofers designed to enhance the listening experience in any environment. Particularly sought after in home theater setups and music systems, Boston Acoustics subwoofers are engineered to deliver deep, resonant bass that is both powerful and precise.

One of the main features of Boston Acoustics subwoofers is their innovative design that combines advanced materials and technologies. The use of high-excursion speakers allows for greater movement and displacement of air, resulting in deeper bass tones that fill the room. The enclosure is often constructed with reinforced MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) to minimize vibrations and resonance, ensuring that the sound remains clear and undistorted even at higher volumes.

Another standout characteristic is Boston Acoustics' proprietary digital signal processing (DSP) technology. This technology optimizes performance by analyzing the audio signal in real-time, adjusting the output to match the acoustics of the room. This means that regardless of where the subwoofer is placed, it can provide an immersive listening experience, making music more dynamic and movie soundtracks more impactful.

The subwoofers also feature adjustable phase and crossover settings, allowing users to customize the output to blend seamlessly with their existing audio system. This flexibility ensures that whether you are listening to music or watching a film, the bass will integrate smoothly with the mid-range and treble frequencies, creating a balanced sound stage.

In terms of power, Boston Acoustics subwoofers come equipped with high-efficiency amplifiers that deliver robust performance without compromising clarity. These amplifiers are designed to handle heavy workloads, producing impressive sound levels without the risk of clipping or distortion.

In conclusion, Boston Acoustics high-powered subwoofers exemplify the brand's commitment to quality and innovation. With features like high-excursion drivers, advanced DSP technology, customizable settings, and powerful amplification, these subwoofers are a fantastic choice for audiophiles seeking to elevate their sound experience. Whether for music, movies, or gaming, the deep, resonant bass produced by Boston Acoustics subwoofers can transform any listening environment into an audio haven.
