WHAT OBSESSION SOUNDS LIKE™
Thank you for choosing the Definitive Technology BP9000 center channel loudspeaker. The BP9000 range offers some of the most cutting-edge audio technologies designed for use in audio/video systems of the highest quality. Because of its wide range, high power handling and articulate clarity, the BP9000 center channel is ideal for use in any high performance home theater system.
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 center channel loudspeaker.

Powering the Active Subwoofer (CS9080 and CS9060 only)

For CS9080 and CS9060 owners, your BP9000 center channel speaker contains a integrated powered subwoofer designed to extend the frequency response and dynamic range of the center channel. Your center channel should be plugged into an electrical socket to power the integrated subwoofer. To highlight the integrated powered subwoofers, you will see an LED”D.” logo at the bottom front panel of each BP9000 center channel speaker. The CS9040 center channel uses a passive bass radiator and will receive All necessary power from your amplifier. This LED logo will default to “on” but can be completely disabled by simply pressing the LED ON/OFF button on the back of the loudspeaker. When enabled, the LED logo will engage only once it’s receiving an active signal from your receiver/processor. It will automatically turn off/standby after 20 minutes of no active signal.
Note: Do not connect the Low Level input to your receiver’s LFE output. The center channel speakers are not designed to be a dedicated subwoofer.

Intelligent Bass Control ™

Definitive Technology has long believed that the best loudspeaker is one that reproduces a 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 ™ (found on the CS9060 and CS9080 models only) 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. That’s it. We recommend starting at the mid-point and adjust to your preference from there.

Audyssey), please visit our website or give us a call.
