Installing And Adjusting - Dali SUB K-14 F Manuel

The connections are basically the same as stated in previous chapters, but for stereo setup
you should only connect the left channel output connector of your stereo or surround (pre-)
amplifier/receiver to the LINE INPUT L connector on the DALI SUB K-14 F placed to the left
in your room. In a similar way you should connect the right channel output connector of your
stereo or surround (pre-) amplifier/receiver to the LINE INPUT R connector on the DALI SUB K-14
F placed to the right in your room.
For a surround setup, split the output signal from your surround sound (pre-) amplifier/receiver
using a RCA splitter (sold separately) and connect the two outputs. In all other respects, follow
the instructions above - but use separate channels. Please consult your authorised DALI dealer
if you have further questions.

5.0 INStALLING AND ADJUStING

Start by checking that the voltage of your mains output corresponds to the indication on the
back of your DALI SUB K-14 F. (see Figure 2)
WarnInG: If the wrong voltage is supplied, there is a serious risk that the electronics of
the subwoofer will suffer permanent damage.
After checking the VOLTAGE, connect the mains cable and move the POWER switch to 'ON'. The
subwoofer is adjusted using the controls on the rear side of the subwoofer (see chapter "10.0
Amplifier Back Plate") in accordance with the following tuning method which will help you
achieve the best results: Play a piece of music you know well, preferably one including rhythmic
bass such as kettle drums, bass guitar etc.
Since the performance is highly dependent on the main speakers, the listening room, the
subwoofer position in the room and your personal preferences, we recommend experimenting
with different settings to achieve the best listening results rather than giving any specific advice
on settings.
note: The position of the subwoofer will significantly affect its contribution to the overall sound
(see chapter "3.0 Positioning"). When you have decided which method of connection you want
to use and you have positioned the subwoofer, you can begin the process of tuning the system.
You are now ready to adjust your DALI SUB K-14 F.
5.1 pHaSe SettInG
The PHASE switch of the subwoofer has two settings: 0° or 180°. The phase setting will adjust
the timing between the subwoofer and the main speakers. To set the phase, do the following:
1) Turn up the volume of your subwoofer a little higher than you would normally do.
2) Set the crossover point to maximum (120 Hz).
• note: If you have connected the subwoofer via LFE instead of LINE IN you need to set the
crossover point for your subwoofer to maximum in the menu of your surround sound (pre-)
amplifier/receiver.
