Bi-amplifying

ThedualinputterminalsoftheVS325C,VS344,andVS336alsoallowfor

bi-amplifying. Two separate ampliﬁer channels are used to drive the speaker.

Onechanneldrivesthebassspeakerswhiletheotherdrivesthemidrange/tweeter.

This can provide signiﬁcant improvements in audio quality and dynamic range.

In this conﬁguration the metal straps that connect the two set of terminals are

removed. The ampliﬁer channel driving the midrange/tweeter is connected to

the top terminals; the ampliﬁer channel for the bass speakers is connected to the

bottom terminals.

Maintenance and Service

The high gloss ﬁnish of the VS Series cabinets is made to the standard of high quality furniture. It should be cared for in the same

way. Before you use any cleaning or care products, test a small, inconspicuous part of the cabinet. Be sure the results are what you

want before doing a ﬁnal application.

For day-to-day care the speaker enclosures may be cleaned using a soft cloth to remove ﬁngerprints or to wipe oﬀ dust. All wiring

connections should be inspected and cleaned or remade at least once a year.

If a problem does occur, make sure that all connections are properly made, secure and clean. If a problem occurs in one loudspeaker,

rewire that speaker in a diﬀerent location within the system. Should the problem persist then the problem is within the speaker. If

the speaker sounds ﬁne in the new position it is a strong indication of a more in-depth issue with the electronics in the system. In the

event that your speaker ever needs service, contact your local Boston Acoustics dealer or visit bostonacoustics.com/dealers for a list

of dealers in your area.
