15 Rev4. (C) Monitor Audio 2006 Running-In As with all speakers, the Bronze Reference requires a certain amount of running-in time before the best is achieved from your loudspeakers. A running-in period of approximately 50 hours should be enough for the Bronze Reference Series. Running-in loudspeakers is similar to ru nning-in a car engine. Play them at approximately half of your normal list ening level to run them in so that permanent damage is not caused. If you wish to speed up the running-in process, this can be done by placing them face to face (almost touching) and connecting one of the pair out of phase (black to red and red to black). This way the sound waves cancel each other out and very little sound level is actually hear d. This is a convenient solution, as they can be left to run-in while you are away from home. Port Bungs Bookshelf Loudspeakers The BR1 is a rear ported cabinet design. Because of this design, we recommend that when fixing the loudspeakers to a wa ll that the port bungs are used. This may also apply when they are positioned very close to a rear/side wall. The BR2’s, by contrast, are front ported in design. This means that they can be positioned more or less anywhere and it won’t affect the sound greatly. The only time that the port bungs may be need ed is if the loudspeakers are close to a side-wall. The bass may seem to ‘boom’ off of the surrounding walls in the listening room and seem over-powering. Floor-Standing Loudspeakers The BR5 and BR6 are both designed using two ATR port tubes. One is located on the front of the cabinet, the other on the rear. These ports should not need to be blocked if you are using your loudspeaker in a room greater than approximately 9m2. However, if you cannot implement the ideal speaker positioning, then experiment using the po rt bungs. Firstly start by fitting them in the rear port, then the front, and then both to see which configuration is best suited to your personal tastes and room constraints. Foam port bungs are supplie d for all speakers with and ATR port tube. The port bungs are another way of fine-tuning the lo udspeaker to fit in sonically in your home environment. WARNING: Care must be taken not to insert the port bungs too far into the port as this may result in the foam bu ng being lost inside the cabinet.
