    BL2 setup switches

    Hi all, I have got two questions about the BL2's switches:

    - does the Setup switch change the volume or the crossover frequency or both?

    - does the Position switch change the volume or the frequency response?

    Sorry if these questions have been asked before. Thanks a lot you for your answers.

    Kind regards, Jean-Sebastien

    I don't have the manual in front of me but as far as I remember, the Set up switch controls the level at which the cross over operates (which compensates for different speakers) and the position alters the frequency response ( decreases the output when in corner and wall settings compared with free standing).

    Re: BL2 setup switches

    Thank you for your reply, Peter.

    So you mean that the Setup switch is actually a low-pass frequency control and that the Position switch is actually a volume control?

    Kind regards, Jean-Sebastien

    Re: BL2 setup switches

    from the manual:

     


    To adapt to the sensitivity of the
    speaker system connected to
    BeoLab 2, it has a SETUP switch
    with three settings.
    To filter out the natural bass
    change obtained if a loudspeaker
    is placed e.g. in a corner, as
    compared to a more freestanding
    position, BeoLab2 has a POSITION
    switch with three settings as well.
    Setting the SETUP switch
    Use the SETUP switch to adapt the output
    from BeoLab 2 to the sensitivity levels of
    the different BeoLab speakers.
    The switch has three settings (1, 2, and 3),
    and which switch setting to choose
    depends on your speaker setup. The table
    to the right shows which setting to use
    with the different models of BeoLab
    speakers.
    If, for example, you have a pair of BeoLab 1
    speakers connected to BeoLab 2, you
    should set the SETUP switch to 1, and so
    on…
    If you have a Dolby Digital system, and
    therefore no speakers are directly connected to
    BeoLab 2, we recommend that you set the
    SETUP switch to 3.

    1   BeoLab 1


    2    BeoLab Penta, BeoLab 8000, BeoLab 6000,
         BeoLab 4500, BeoLab 4000

    3    BeoLab 2500

    SETUP
    If you connect BeoLab Penta to BeoLab 2,
    we recommend that you set the INPUT LEVEL
    switch on the BeoLab Penta to its middle
    position.
