User manual DALI CONCEPT

[. . . ] Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference. Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be followed. Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water - for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool and the like. Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or stand if recommended by the manufacturer. [. . . ] The Concept Center center channel loudspeaker is specially designed for placement close to the large surface of a TV screen and can be placed above or below the screen, to suit your needs. For both of these positions, we recommend that the speaker's front edge be on a line with the TV screen. attachment of the enclosed rubber feet is recommended to ensure stable , non-resonant operation. If you wish to wall-mount your rear speakers, DALI Concept 1 is an excellent choice, as it is factory-fitted with mounting hardware. For the ultimate surround experience, a central listening position is recommended, but, naturally, you can also enjoy fine surround, when not seated exactly in the ideal "sweet spot" (Fig. Before wall-mounting, it is important to attach the enclosed rubber feet to the rear panel of the loudspeaker as shown below. The rubber feet ensure stable contact with the wall and create space for the loudspeaker cable. Remember to attach the rubber feet when wall mounting Concept 1 When you complement your stereo or surround sound system with the Suite series subwoofer, Concept SUB, with active crossover network and amplifier, you have two different connection options: connection to a surround amplifier subwoofer output terminal, or to a stereo amplifier line output terminal. connection to surround amplifier with separate subwoofer output terminal (Fig. 6) If you want to use Concept SUB for reproduction of the special subwoofer signal from a surround amplifier with separate subwoofer output terminal, connect this to the LFE input terminal on Concept SUB. if the LFE input terminal is selected , the crossover network in Concept SUB is not active. The LFE input terminal should therefore only be used together with a special subwoofer output terminal in which the signal has already been filtered, so the subwoofer only receives the lowest frequencies. 7) If you want to use Concept SUB to supplement the bass reproduction of a stereo system, connect the subwoofer "Line in, Left/Right" to a stereo signal on the pre-amplifier with full frequency content. The built-in crossover network in Concept SUB then ensures that the subwoofer only reproduces the lowest frequencies (see section on adjustments on page 11). In most cases you will achieve excellent results with one Concept SUB. It is possible as a no-compromise stereo solution, or for reproduction of very powerful sound pressure in a surround set-up in large rooms, to use two Concept SUB. This solution is connected in the same way, but for stereo you should only connect the left-hand channel to one input terminal on the left-hand Concept SUB and the right-hand channel to one input terminal on the right-hand Concept SUB. for a surround set-up , parallel the LFEinputs of the two Concept SUB. In all other respects, follow the instructions above - but use separate channels. Note: When using two Concept SUB, the best results are normally achieved by positioning the two subwoofers relatively close to each other (1 - 2 metres). Once you have chosen the set-up and connection you are going to use, and have positioned the subwoofer in the desired spot, you can begin the task of tuning the system. please note that the actual location of the subwoofer greatly affects its contribution to the total acoustic image. [. . . ] internal cables and crossover networks are an important but frequentlyoverlooked point. The internal cables and crossover networks in your DALI speakers are - like every component - high quality. The loudspeaker units in your DALI speakers have been developed based on our ultimate sound requirements. This ensures that the most delicate details, such as a harp string or a puff of air, will be reproduced just as convincingly as the powerful sound of a car door slamming etc. [. . . ]
