2.0 uNPACKING
Be careful not to damage the contents when unpacking the parts. Check that all parts are
included in the cardboard box (see Table 1). Keep the packaging materials in case your speaker
needs to be relocated or serviced.
3.0 POSITIONING
Both the amount and quality of the deep bass depend on the size and shape of the room, the
position of the subwoofer(s) and the main speakers. If positioned near a side or back wall, the
bass will be accentuated. A corner position will accentuate it even more, and we recommend
this position, as it increases the maximum bass output while simultaneously reducing the risk
of overloading your subwoofer.
DALI SUB K-14 F features a front-firing woofer, a down-firing bass port and, at the rear side of
the subwoofer, an amplifier metal plate which can become hot when the subwoofer is powered.
Make sure that the woofer and the bass port are not blocked or covered. Ensure that there is a
minimum distance of 5 cm / 2" between the metal plate and the nearest object in the room to
secure a free airflow.
DALI SUB K-14 F can be used with spikes or rubber bumpers under the speakers, see Figure
1. Be careful not to over tighten the locking nuts. Spikes or rubber bumpers can improve the
sound quality. You can try both to hear what gives the best sound quality in your setup. Please
be aware, that spikes may damage the floor.
4.0 CONNECTION
DALI SUB K-14 F has a built-in power amplifier with an active crossover. The inputs of the
subwoofer amplifier should be connected to your stereo or surround sound (pre-) amplifier/
receiver using a RCA cable (sold separately).
note: When changing connections, always disconnect the mains voltage from the subwoofer
to prevent damage.
