Unpacking Your BP-8000 Super Tower

Please Inspect For Shipping Damage

Each loudspeaker leaves our plant in perfect condition. Any visible or concealed

damage most likely occurred in handling after it left our plant and should be

reported to your Definitive dealer or the delivery company that delivered your

loudspeaker. Please unpack your system carefully. Save all cartons and packing

materials in case you move or need to ship your system. Record the serial number

found on the back of the Bipolar 8000ST speaker.

Positioning the Speakers in Your Room

Your new Bipolar speakers are very flexible in terms of positioning and placement.

To optimize their performance, please follow these simple guidelines. Although the

following recommendations will usually yield the best results, all rooms and listen-

ing setsups are different,

so do not be afraid to

experiment with the

speaker placement.

Whatever sounds best to

you is correct.

Figure 2 –

Positioning Bipolar

ST as Left/Right

Main Speakers

Set up the speakers and

listening position in an

equilateral triangle as

illustrated. You will also

get good results if the

listeners are a bit farther away. For example, if line A and C are each 10' long then

line B would be between 7' and 8' long.

VERY IMPORTANT:

Do not use your receiver’s auto setup functions as they are often

ineffective in setting up and adjusting speakers with built-in

powered subwoofers!

Use the manual speaker setup func-

tions in your receiver to set speaker

configuration, speaker distance and

channel balance. Consult your

receiver’s or processor’s manual to

learn how to access and use the setup

menus. Use the settings called for in

Figur 4.e

Powering the Active Subwoofer

Your Bipolar STs contain a built-in subwoofer amplifier that must be plugged into

an electrical socket. When powering up from being unplugged, the LED on the

amplifier panel will flash for 30 seconds while the firmware is loading. The

Bipolar ST has a special circuit which automatically turns on when a signal is fed

to the loudspeaker. The LED on the back panel will light up when a signal is

sensed and the amplifier turns on. After the cessation of a signal, it may take up

to an hour for the amplifier to turn off. Due to stray radio signals (RF) in your

area, the LEDs may not turn off. Do not be concerned, the amplifiers draw little

power when they are idle.

Setting Your Speakers’ Low-Frequency Level Control

Your Bipolar STs have bass level controls which allow you to adjust the output

level of the powered subwoofers to match your room and personal listening

preferences. Please note that there are no controls to

vary the crossover points or phase. The crossover

points and phase have been factory-calibrated to

provide perfect blending. We suggest beginning with

the level control set at approximately 12 o’clock.

Each speaker’s bass controls can also be set differently

in order to allow you to compensate for asymmetrical

positioning of the speakers in your room (i.e., when

one is closer to a side wall or corner, etc.).

Complete Home Theater System

We strongly suggest that you use matching Definitive center channel and

rear/surround speakers to complete your Definitive home theater system. Please

note that you can use Definitive Bipolar SuperTowers as rear or side surround

speakers with excellent results for both music and movies.

Troubleshooting

If you experience any difficulties with your Bipolar ST loudspeakers, try the

suggestions below. If you still have problems, contact your Definitive Technology

Authorized Dealer for assistance.

1. Audible distortion when the speakers are playing at loud levels is caused

by turning up your receiver or amplifier louder than the receiver or the

speakers are capable of playing. Most receivers and amplifiers put out their

full-rated power well befor the volume control is turned all the way up, so e

the position of the volume control is a poor indicator of its power limit. If

your speakers distort when you play them loud, turn the volume down!

2. If you experience a lack of bass, it is likely that one speaker is out of phase

(polarity) with the other and needs to be rewired with closer attention to

connecting positive to positive and negative to negative on both channels.

Most speaker wire has some indicator (such as color-coding, ribbing or

writing) on one of the two conductors to help you maintain consistency.

It is essential to connect both speakers to the amplifier in the same way

(in phase).

3. Make sure all your system interconnects and power cords are solidly in place.

4. Should you hear hum or noise coming from your speakers, try plugging

the speakers’ power cords into a different AC circuit than your amplifier.

5. The system has sophisticated internal protection circuitry. If for some

reason the protection circuitry trips, turn off your system and wait five

minutes before trying the system again. If the speakers’ built-in amplifier

should over-heat, the system will turn off until the amplifier cools down

and resets.

6. Check to be sure that your power cord has not been damaged.

7. Check that no foreign objects or liquid has entered the speaker cabinet.

8. If you cannot get the subwoofer driver to turn on or if no sound comes out

and you are sure the system is set up properly, please bring the loudspeaker

to your Definitive Technology Authorized Dealer for assistance; call first.
