Boulder support FAQ

Common questions about manuals, registration, and support for this brand.

  • What should I do if the front panel LED on my Boulder amplifier turns red?

    A red LED indicates a potential issue such as high DC offset voltage or waveform clipping. You should reduce the output level, ensure the amplifier is not overheating, and correct the DC offset of the source device. If it won't turn on and blinks red, an error requiring authorized dealer service has occurred.

  • How do I update the software on my Boulder amplifier?

    To enable software updates, connect your amplifier to a network router or switch using an Ethernet cable connected to the rear panel. The amplifier will download software updates as necessary if it has an active internet connection.

  • Can I use banana plugs to connect my loudspeakers to a Boulder amplifier?

    No, Boulder does not recommend or provide provisions for banana plugs, as they can lose spring tension over time, increasing contact resistance and distortion. You should use spade terminals that accept 0.250-inch (6 mm) diameter binding posts.

  • Where can I find user manuals for Boulder Pro stage lighting?

    You can download instruction manuals and installation guides for Boulder Pro wash lights, LED par lights, and moving head fixtures directly from this category page.
