When connecting your DaLI SuB M-10 D to smaller speakers, e.g. the DaLI ruBIcON 2, we
recommend a crossover point of approximately 80 Hz. this must be entered in the menu
system of your (pre-) amplifier. You might need to enter the 'small' setting when selecting type
of front speakers in the aV receiver menu.
connecting larger speakers (typically floor-standing front speakers) will allow you to choose a
lower crossover point, and to define your speakers as 'large' in the menu system.
If in doubt about the capacity of your speakers, we recommend setting the crossover point quite
high, defining your speakers as small, and finally reducing the crossover point to the lowest
possible position while maintaining an even bass with no drop-outs.
5.4 CINEMA / HIFI MODE
DaLI SuB M-10 D allows you to choose between two sound modes, one which is optimized for
watching movies, and another for listening to music. See figure 3.
for a realistic and powerful rendering of e.g. explosions in a movie, you should set the sound
mode to cINEMa. this will amplify the lowest frequencies to ensure a realistic experience.
for a neutral and very linear performance, you should set the sound mode to HIfI. this will
ensure a precise rendering of all the details of the music, while optimizing the integration with
your front speakers.
to toggle between the two sound modes, simultaneously press the '+' and '-' buttons on the
back of the amplifier.
5.5 POWER
the POWEr switch is the main ON/Off switch. We recommend switching 'Off' the subwoofer
when it is not to be used for extended periods. When changing connections, always disconnect
the mains voltage from the subwoofer. We recommend that you aLWaYS turn 'Off' the POWEr
switch on the rear side of the subwoofer BEfOrE turning off the mains switch.
5.6 ON / STAND BY MODE
the subwoofer has a built-in circuit that will power up the amplifier of the subwoofer when an
input signal is detected (given that the POWEr is set to 'ON' and the POWEr MODE switch is
set to 'autO'). When the subwoofer is 'ON', the ON/StaNDBY LED will light up green. If an input
signal is not detected for approximately 20 minutes, the subwoofer will go into standby mode
and the ON/StaNDBY LED will light up red.
Setting the POWEr MODE switch to 'MaNuaL' means that the subwoofer can only be switched
'ON' or 'Off' by means of the remote control.
