Connecting using the XLR sockets

SETTING UP & TUNING IN

A balanced signal connection (XLR sockets) provides a connection that is far less susceptible to cable signal interference compared to an unbalanced connection (RCA connection). It is for this reason that XLR and balanced connections are used almost exclusively in critical and professional installations.

Provided your processor or receiver has a XLR symmetric or balanced Output for subwoofer you should consider using the XLR Input (No. 3 in fig. 2) on the Dynaudio subwoofer. In a setup with multiple subwoofers you can use the XLR connections between the Master and Slave subwoofers, even if the connection between the processor or receiver has been made using the RCA connectors.

Configuring and making connections using XLR is done in the same way as using the RCA connectors. Please refer to the sections "single subwoofer connection" and "multiple subwoofer connections" in this chapter.

Dynaudio follows the most usual convention for termination of XLR sockets:

Pin 1 = ground

Pin 2 = signal +

Pin 3 = signal -

• Always ensure that all connections are correct: It may be that the source equipment follows a different way of terminating the XLR sockets or it may be that the XLR connection cables themselves do not comply. When in doubt, consult your dealer.

•DO NOT use XLR and RCA connections in parallel at the same time for the same connection.

Remote Control battery & battery replacement

Before the DSC 1 remote control can be used, it needs to be fitted with the battery cell that comes separately packed with the remote control. To replace and insert a battery (refer to fig. 5):

•Release the battery tray by pushing its locking tab (No. 1 in fig. 5) on the back of the remote sideways with your nail and at the same time; slide the tray out of the remote control battery compartment.

•Remove the exhausted battery and dispose of properly. Insert a fresh battery in the battery tray: Observe correct polarity (both battery and tray are marked with a "+").

•Slide the battery tray into the battery compartment until the locking tab clicks into place. Make sure it is inserted the correct way up, the tray will slide into place easily, do not use force.

• The battery will last a considerable time, depending on frequency of use. When you notice that the subwoofer doesn't always respond or only from a very close range to commands from the remote control, it is likely the battery is exhausted and will need replacing.

•Use only CR2025 button cell batteries to replace the original battery with; these are readily available from most electrical stores.

Do not leave the remote control in high temperature environments (such as in direct sunlight). In worst cases this can possibly result in deformation of the remote control.

The subwoofer can handle a frequency range starting from 27 Hz, allowing it to reproduce low-end frequencies effectively while maintaining a linear response. This capability is crucial in professional settings where every detail of the sound is essential, ensuring that low frequencies do not mask other vital elements in the mix.

Equipped with a built-in multi-amplification system, the BM10S features a 200-watt RMS power output. This ample power ensures that the subwoofer is capable of delivering both burst and sustained low frequencies without distortion. The intelligent design allows it to adapt to various monitoring environments, making it versatile enough for different studio setups.

The BM10S utilizes advanced DSP (digital signal processing) technology to enhance its performance further. This includes customizable EQ settings, allowing users to tailor the subwoofer’s response to fit their specific room acoustics. The ability to adjust crossover frequencies helps in blending the subwoofer seamlessly with Dynaudio monitors, offering an extended low-end presence without compromising the mid and high frequencies.

Another notable characteristic of the Dynaudio BM10S is its robust build quality. The cabinet is constructed from high-grade MDF, which minimizes resonance and vibration, ensuring that sound output remains clear and uncolored. The sleek design not only contributes to its aesthetic appeal but also ensures a practical fit in various studio environments.
