MPORTANT NTRODUCTION Infinity’ s HPS-250 subwoofer has been designed to enhance the bass frequencies of any audio system. The subwoofer may be used with speakers of any size. Obviously, the greatest bass enhancement will be achieved when the subwoofer is connected to speakers that do not have the capability to create deep bass.
We recommend placing the HPS-250 subwoofer at least 2 to 3 feet away from a television or a computer’ s disc-drive system to prevent smearing the colors of the TV picture or erasing of the magnetic drive.
