Positioning/Initial Set Up
The BRW-10 should now be sited in the most suitable position, preferably not directly in
the corner of a room as this may cause excessive bass boom. Once a desirable position is
achieved it is important to check if the cables are long enough to reach comfortably
without being under tension. Leave the BRW-10 unplugged until the installation
procedure is completed. The optimal control settings will depend entirely on your system
configuration. For initial trials set the controls as follows:
Volume control Should be set to minimum
Frequency control Should be set to the minimum position (40Hz)
Phase control Should be set to zero degrees
Power switch Should be set to ‘Auto’
Input connections can be made at this stage before the power is connected to the BRW-10.
Never connect or disconnect the RCA input lead connection with the BRW-10 switched on.
Set Up
Once the input cables are connected and the controls are set in accordance with the initial
set-up procedure above, the BRW-10 can be connected to the mains power supply and
switched on. Do not play any music at this stage. With the Power Mode Switch in the ‘Auto’
position, the unit should remain in standby until a signal is received.
Play a variety of music/ film excerpts starting at a very low volume level, increasing to an
average listening level once you are sure everything is working correctly. Check the back of
the BRW-10, the LED indicator should now indicate it is ‘ON’. Please now follow the
bulleted instructions below: -
If using the crossover frequency control please adjust in accordance
with the table on page 7 further fine-tuning may be required.
The Phase Control can now be set ref. See page 7 for information on
this function
The volume control can now be set to finish the set-up procedure. It is important to try a
variety of music and film excerpts with which you are familiar in order to obtain the
optimum overall settings.
