[. . . ] If you have a very thick pile carpet, you may need to remove the soft polymer pad to ensure the spikes fully penetrate the carpet. Carefully turn your speaker back over and check that it is evenly balanced. If uneven, you can adjust the height in the appropriate corner by unscrewing the spike slightly. This operation may need to be repeated a several times to ensure your cabinet is completely level. When you are happy with the balance of the cabinet, tighten the locking nut on each spike. The soft polymer pad may need to be removed to do this. 8 Rev4. © Monitor Audio 2006 Your Bronze BR-LCR The new Bronze BR-LCR is the vital aesthetic and sonic link in any Bronze Reference-based home cinema or multi-channel music system, bringing extra solidity, depth and realism to the front soundstage, especially with dialogue. Recognising that the centre is often the hardest working speaker in an A/V system, the new Bronze BR-LCR has been designed with two 5. 5-inch MMP® Mk2 bass-mid drivers that hand over to the C-CAM® tweeter at 2. 6KHz. A special crossover network ensures the Bronze Centre has excellent vertical and horizontal off axis frequency response, eliminating the need for a 'hot seat' listening position and integrating smoothly with the Bronze BR1, BR2, BR5, BR6 or BR-FX in a home theatre set-up. With easy amplifier loading, the new Bronze Centre will get the best from even lower powered A/V amplifiers (receivers).

The attractive curved grille and end caps conceal a rigid angular cabinet construction and Monitor Audio's renowned and highly acclaimed MMP® Mk2 driver technology and C-CAM® tweeters. By using low slope linear phase crossover design, Monitor Audio has engineered the Bronze BR-FX to have seamless integration and almost perfect 180-degree dispersion characteristics. Please note that the BR-FX's are left and right handed specific. This is not an issue when used in bi-pole mode as a rear surround speaker. It is essential that they are positioned correctly if used in a 7. 1 channel system. Bi-Pole Mode Fig. 2 Before changing your BR-FX's from bi-pole mode to di-pole mode, please ensure that the speaker wires are disconnected from your loudspeakers. To change from bi-pole, to di-pole mode, the toggle switch on the crossover panel needs to be moved from its factory set position (fig. © Monitor Audio 2006 Connecting Your Bronze Reference Loudspeakers You will notice that when you unpack your loudspeaker, there are plastic terminal caps in the terminals where the speaker cable connectors should go. These can be simply removed by placing a thin, flat object underneath them and carefully levering them free. The BR2, BR5 & BR6 can be either single or bi-wired.
