Per the owners manual you can reset the unit to the factory presets by holding down the Filter Select and Store buttons when the unit is being turned on.

Rather than start a new thread I'll ask another bfd question here. I read somewhere about using your unused filters to reduce harmonics from higher frequencies. I can't find this info now but there was a list of frequencies and how much to attenuate. Anyone have info on this?

From Sonnie Parker's Guide
If you have the filters available, you may wish to add the following filters:
-48db @ 1.0 khz, -48db @ 1.25 khz, -48db @ 1.63 khz, -48dB @ 2.0 khz... all at a very narrow bandwidth of 1/60.
It has been suggested that these filters supposedly eliminate the harmonic distortion and/or buzzing that often occur with some subs.

Has anybody here tried these filters and found it to impact the SQ coming out of their IB?

I wouldn't consider using them because narrow band filters like 1/60th octave raises the "Q" of the system, that decreases the sound quality.

I'll keep the Behringer EQ questions here. Mine was working great till yesterday. My only source was a DVD player and stereo prior to yesterday and everything was golden. Then I hooked up my Moxi box to the receiver. Now I get a awefull hummmmmm through the sub's. It's loud enough that I turned the EQ and sub amp off to watch TV. I've tracked it down to the EQ. If I remove it and connect the receiver staight to the sub amp, I get zero hummmm. Anyone else getting this? How can I get rid of it. I'm not using $100 Monster cables, but I'm also not using $0.99 cables either. I bought the 1/4 jacks like below to convert RCA to 1/4" jack: I'm only using one channel of the EQ. Any help would be great...

Sounds like a ground loop. I think Moxi is a cable box. Unplug just the coax from the box and see of the hum goes away. Your cable may not be properly grounded. If you Google ground loop hum, you will find tons of potential problems and solutions.
You can also try a cheater plug on the BFD to test if that is the problem - doesn't sound like it since you were fine until you hooked up the Moxi, though. Then, you can lift the ground in the signal path if you are concerned with safety. I am using a cheater plug, but have grounded my BFD chassis to my pro amp chassis, which has a built in ground lift.

Yep I've tried an Isomax, it didn't work for me

A $0.60 Cheater Plug solved my humm problem. No noticable humm at all anymore.
Thanks.
