BPV-series User Manual
Connection
BPV-series speakers are connected via a hard-wired cable from the rear
of the enclosure. For 100V operation, use double insulated cable rated to
the total maximum current, calculated as total max tapped power divided
by 100V. With the amplifier switched off, strip the speaker wire ends and
connect 100V or “+” to the white wire and connect Common or “-” to the
black wire. Insulate any connecting joints adequately and seal from
moisture if connected outdoors. Each model has a 100V transformer with
various volume settings or “tappings” available via a rotary switch at the
rear (BP6V example shown).
When used with a 100V line amplifier, select the required maximum
wattage that the speaker should demand from the amplifier. Ensure that
the sum of the wattages of all the speakers attached to the amplifier
does not exceed the recommended output of the amplifier.
When used with a standard (non-100V) amplifier, select the “8Ω” setting and refer to the amplifier
manufacturer’s manual to ensure that total speaker impedance (Ω) is not less than recommended for the
amplifier. It is imperative that the amplifier does not deliver more power than can be handled by the BCV
speaker. Refer to the amplifier manual and specifications below to calculate this. Normally, it is
recommended that the amplifier is capable of the RMS power rating of the speaker but cannot ever
exceed the Max power rating.

Caution
BPV-series speakers are weatherproof IP54 rated. Avoid immersion or direct water jets to the speaker.
Avoid excess heat and exposure to direct sunlight.
Take care not to overload speakers. HF drivers are especially prone to damage through overload.
For 100V installation, take proper care to insulate any contacts within reach of users.
Seal any outdoor speaker connections from moisture ingress.
