The PRi85Sub also has a “DIR” setting which bypasses both the trans-
former and crossover. Use this setting if the speaker is being driven by
a conventional amplifier that has a built-in crossover, such as the Boston
Acoustics SA-1.
NOTE: The DIR position is provided as a way to use an amplified LFE
signal from a receiver and should be limited to 30Hz to 750Hz – to ensure
the product is protected. We do not recommend or warranty this product
if this frequency limitation is not used.
Removing the Grilles
Should you need to remove the grilles for any reason use a paper clip bent into a small hook. Slip the hook
through one of the holes and pull the grille straight out. You may need to pull one edge part of the way out them
move to the other edge and gradually work the grille out of the frame.
Painting the PRi Speakers
You can paint the exposed part of the frames and the grilles of your
speakers to match the room. A paint shield is provided to protect the
speakers.
Most paints, especially water based paints, don’t adhere very well to
plastic surfaces or surfaces already cover with glossy paint. So you will
need to apply a primer coat. Use a primer recommended for plastic sur
-
faces. Be sure it will produce a surface that will bond with the paint you
are using.
NOTE: Depending on the type of paint that will be used for the final coat you may or may not need to
apply primer to the grille.
Remove the grille as described in the preceding section. Put the paint shield over the front of the speaker. Apply
masking tape to all other part that should be protected. Be sure to cover the mounting clamps and the terminal
cover. Be sure the surfaces to be painted are clean and free of dust, lint, etc.
Apply two or more light coating of primer. Let the primer dry thoroughly between coats. You’ll get better results
and reduce the chance of drips or runs using several light coatings. Lighter coats also reduce the chance the
holes in the grilles will become plugged with paint. Let the paint dry completely. Remove the paint shield and
re-insert the grille.
