  • Page 3 Description Continuing in the tradition of our critically acclaimed Compact Reference series, the second generation CR55, CR65, CR75 and CR85 are compact, versatile, high performance bookshelf speakers designed to deliver accurate, natural reproduction. Special care has been taken to optimize the speakers’ components for maximum performance: The bass units utilize phase plugs that conduct heat away from the voice coil, thus increasing power handling and maximizing output.
  • Page 4: How To Connect Your Speakers

    How to Connect Your Speakers Correctly wiring your speakers is important for achieving the best sound quality. Wiring should take just a few minutes, but it’s important to do it carefully, since incorrect wiring (such as reversed connections) can result in a poor soundstage and poor bass.
  • Page 5: Basic Hookup

    CRB BRACKET: This optional stand-off/swivel bracket can be purchased from your dealer or ordered directly from Boston Acoustics using the included order form. The CRB attaches to the back of the speaker using the four mounting holes located at either side of the keyhole bracket.
  • Page 6 Connecting the CR Speaker to Your Amplifier or Receiver Checking the Speaker Connections It is important that your speakers are hooked up with similar polarity or “in phase.” A simple listening test will tell you if your speakers are connected properly. Place the speakers face to face, as closely together as possible. While listening to music with your amplifier set to MONO, reverse the connections at one speaker only.
  • Page 7 Logo Rotation and Grille Removal The logo plates on your CR speakers can be easily rotated in 90° increments to maintain the speaker’s appearance when positioned on their sides. 1. Remove the grille by gently pulling on the back of the top lip where it meets the front baffle. There are four pegs on the back of the grille that will pop out of their respective sockets which are located in the baffle plate.
  • Page 8: Limited Warranty

    Limited Warranty For five years from the date of purchase, Boston Acoustics will repair for the original owner any defect in materials or workmanship that occurs in normal use of the speakers, without charge for parts and labor. Your responsibilities are to use the system according to the instructions supplied, to provide safe and secure transportation to an authorized Boston Acoustics service representative, and to present proof of purchase in the form of your sales slip when requesting service.
