HARMONIC RESOLUTION SYSTEMS
INSTRUCTION FOR INSTALLATION OF SXR SOLID
BRACE INSERTS INTO SXR FRAME SYSTEM
The Foundation of Great System Performance

Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Harmonic Resolution Systems SXR Audio Stand and
the SXR Solid Brace Inserts. When used properly, it will give you many years of
superior musical or video signal reproduction.
The SXR Audio Stand significantly reduces the negative impact of structure-borne
noise on your audio or video component performance. Decades of engineering
experience, custom material development, and listening tests are incorporated
into the design of the SXR Audio Stand. This high performance product from
Harmonic Resolution Systems, Inc. will enable your audio/video source and
amplification components to achieve high levels of performance.
The SXR Solid Brace Inserts are designed to increase the acoustical performance
of the SXR frame system even further by adding more mass, stiffness, and
damping. They are also specifically designed to support oversized isolation bases
and isolation bases with increased load capacity. They are typically used where
maximum performance is desired from the SXR frame system and where you need
more load capacity than what is possible with our standard models. The SXR
Signature Series Frame performance is achieved when latest production version
of the SXR Solid Brace Insert is installed at every isolation base location in a SXR
system.
Please read this manual completely prior to assembly and use of your SXR Solid
Brace Inserts. It contains instructions necessary for proper assembly, use, and
care of this system. Proper care of your SXR Audio Stand will ensure optimum
performance and an aesthetically appealing system.

Set-Up Instructions
The SXR Solid Brace Inserts are use in pairs as shown in photo 1 below.

Step 1. Prior to installing the SXR Solid Brace Inserts remove any existing
isolation bases from the desired frame location and make sure all of the bolts that
attached the cross bars to the frame are not tight (back off 1/8 turn from full tight
position). This will allow the frame to move slightly when installing the solid
brace inserts.

Step 2. With the HRS logo facing outward place one SXR Solid Brace Insert in
the front of the frame and then the second unit in the rear of the frame as shown
in photo 3.

Step 3. Rock the solid brace inserts back and forth to engage the polymer
element with the frame and keep working then down until in full contact with the
frame. Once the SXR Solid Brace Inserts are in place you can hand tighten the
bolts on the cross frame at each level. There is no need to over torque the frame.
The best performance will come from bolts that are just snug (not with lots of
torque).
Step 4. Check to make sure the isolation base you will load into the SXR Solid
Brace Insert is the correct size. All of the feet on the isolation base need to sit in
the center channel of the front and rear SXR Solid Brace Inserts. If the isolation
base you have does not line up properly please contact your authorized dealer or
our factory for assistance. When you have confirmed the fit is correct then load
the isolation base into the SXR Solid Brace Insert as shown in photo 4.
