Driver Technology
A-Series Bookshelf: The Boston Acoustics A-Series
bookshelf loudspeaker (A 25) incorporates high-quality components that
produce the legendary Boston Sound. The A-Series bookshelf loudspeaker is
ideally suited for use in a high-quality multichannel home
theater or stereo music system.
2-Way Speaker System: The Boston Acoustics A-Series
bookshelf loudspeaker features a two-way design that employs a single 5.25"
woofer paired with a single 1.0" soft-dome tweeter.
1" Kortec Soft-Dome Tweeter: The Boston Acoustic A 25 features
Boston's 1" Kortec soft-dome tweeter for crystalline high frequencies.
5.25" DCD Woofer: The Boston Acoustics A 25 bookshelf
loudspeaker is fitted with a single 5.25" ceramic/glass fiber polymer woofer with
Deep Channel Design (DCD) that allows for higher speed, reduced distortion, and
improved sensitivity. As a result the A 25 delivers more bass response from
less amplifier power.
Crossover Network: The crossover components in the A 25
incorporate low-loss film capacitors and low-distortion laminated silicon steel
cores for the inductors in all critical areas. The tweeter and woofer are
crossed over at 2,400 Hz.
Enclosure Design
Bass Reflex Enclosure: The Boston Acoustics A-Series
bookshelf loudspeaker (A 25) features a bass reflex enclosure with a
rear-firing acoustically tuned port for improved low frequency response and
efficiency.
Scratch Resistant, Resonance Free Cabinet: The Boston
Acoustics A 25 bookshelf loudspeaker features a high-gloss,
scratch-resistant cabinet with a textured top and magnetic grille for a modern
styling that will match most any decor. Vertical and horizontal internal
bracings reduce cabinet resonances for enhanced audio quality.
Connections
Binding Posts: Gold-plated binding posts provide hook-up flexibility
and the purest signal transfer. The binding posts will accept bare wire (up to
12-gauge), pin connectors, spade connectors, and banana plugs (single only).
Note: The binding posts are spaced to far apart to
accommodate dual banana plugs.
Color-Coded: The speaker's binding posts are color-coded
(red/black) for easy identification between positive and negative.
Mounting Options
Rubber Feet: The Boston Acoustics A-Series bookshelf loudspeaker
(A 25) includes four self-adhesive rubber feet for safe and secure placement
on a table-top, shelf, or, stand, other AV furniture. The rubber feet add 0.125"
of height to the bookshelf speaker.
Wall Mounting: The A 25
bookshelf loudspeaker is fitted with a single keyhole slot to wall mount the
speaker to a wall stud (mounting screw not supplied). Two self-adhesive rubber
bumpers are included to attach to the rear of the speaker to prevent marring of
your wall.
Note: The
optional PinPoint heavy duty side-grip wall-mounting bracket (121AM40B,
sold separately) can also be used to wall mount the speakers.
