Architectural Series Panel Bracket and Architectural
Finish Component that is a discreet complement to the
surrounding architectural space.
The complete BPS-1 Bandpass Subwoofer System is
comprised of a BPS-1 bandpass subwoofer cabinet,
an Adaptor Baf fle, a dedicated Sonamp
an Architectural Finish Component, all of which are available separately.
Design and Features
• Delivers power ful, room-filling bass through a small grille that complements the room's architectural
design.
• Trimless and truly flush-mount installation — the plane of the subwoofer grille is per fectly aligned with
the plane of the ceiling.
• Available Adaptor Baf fles allow the BPS-1 to be used with any size round or square Architectural Series
Panel Bracket (even 4") to match other Architectural Series speakers in the audio system.
• The 8"
woofer driver features a felted paper cone with a rubber surround that
reliable high-power operation. This allows the BPS-1 to be installed in a location that will have limited
or no access.
• The ver y ef ficient 4th-order bandpass enclosure produces high output over the subwoofer's entire
frequency range.
• Adaptor Baf fles are heavily flared to minimize por t noise during high-volume passages.
• The BPS-1 can be used with any separately available Architectural Series Finish Component:
metal (with or without trim) or cloth (with or without trim).
• Sonamp A150 power amplifier (required, available separately) delivers 150 watts of power and
provides flexible connections that integrate the BPS-1 system into any audio system.
prevents overdriving the BPS-1's woofer driver, even when using a single A150 to drive two BPS-1 subwoofer
cabinets.
• Front-panel amplifier controls (volume, crossover frequency, phase) let you fine-tune the woofer's
per formance to match a variety of listening environments and personal preferences.
