Thank you for choosing the Definitive Technology BP9000 loudspeaker system.The BP9000 range offers the most cutting-edge audio technologies, including Forward-Focused Bipolar array technology, integrated powered subwoofers, Intelligent Bass Control™ and Dolby Atmos® and DTS: X™ compatibility. This extraordinary speaker is truly state-of-the-art in both music and home theater
sound reproduction. We expect you will enjoy the full-range sonic signature of Definitive Technology.
Our engineers have spent many years developing this product. In order to ensure that you experience the finest performance possible, we encourage you to take a moment to fully read this owner’s manual and familiarize yourself with the proper installation and set-up procedures for your BP9000 speakers.

Powering the Active Subwoofer

Your BP9000 speakers contain built-in powered subwoofers that must be plugged into an electrical socket. The
BP9000 has a signal detection feature that only turns the amplifier on when a signal is present. The LED on the back
will turn from Red to Blue when a signal is sensed. The “D.” LED logo on the front will also turn on if enabled (see
Definitive Technology “D.” LED Logo section for more information). After the cessation of a signal, it may take up
to 20 minutes for the amplifier to standby. Do not be concerned, the amplifiers draw little power when they are idle.

Intelligent Bass Control ™

Definitive Technology has long believed that the best loudspeaker is one that reproduces the full-range audio
signal as precisely as possible. Our sonic signature allows you to not just hear what is on the screen, but to feel it
as well. Intelligent Bass Control ™ is our latest advancement that gives you the ability to modulate deep bass up
or down in level while simultaneously maintaining optimal mid-range clarity regardless of where the bass control is
set. Simply rotate the dial on the back of the loudspeaker to your preferred bass setting and the speaker will do the
rest of the work. That’s it. We recommend starting at the mid-point and adjust to your preference from there.

For advanced instructions on Intelligent Bass Control ™ including integrating with room correction software (ex.
Audyssey), please visit our website or give us a call.

Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X® Compatibility

All BP9000 floor speakers offer Dolby Atmos or DTS:X compatibility. The BP9080x integrates a height speaker module into the loudspeaker, whereas the BP9060, BP9040, and BP9020 offer a hidden, dedicated connector port (fits A90 speaker module— sold separately) that can be accessed by gently pushing down on the back of the magnetically-sealed, acoustically-treated aluminum top panel. Regardless of your setup, simply run additional speaker wire to the height channel binding posts on the back of the loudspeaker from any Dolby Atmos or DTS:X compatible set-up
