BREAK-IN

Like any mechanical system, a loudspeaker requires 
a “break-in” period� You will experience a gradual 
increase in sound quality during an initial period� 
Unlike other mechanical systems, the lifespan of a 
loudspeaker is increased by regular use�

DALI MENTOR is a prime exponent of one of the 
many virtues that have made DALI famous world-
wide – Wide Dispersion�

Wide Dispersion means that the area in front of the 
loudspeakers where a full stereo image is achieved 
is a great deal wider than with other loudspeakers� 
This ensures substantially better sound across a 
larger area within your listening room�

To take full advantage of DALI MENTOR’s Wide 
Dispersion, the loudspeakers should face straight 
ahead and not be angled in towards the listening 
position unless the two loudspeakers are placed 
very far apart�

The MENTOR tweeter module is especially develo-
ped for this loudspeaker� Its unique design ensures 
that Wide Dispersion is more than just a name 
– you can tell the difference�

SETUP - WIDE DISPERSION

Before setting up and connecting your new DALI 
MENTOR loudspeakers, you should find the best 
possible placement relative to your listening 
position� It is a good idea to follow these simple 
guidelines:

Avoid as far as possible any objects between the 
loudspeakers and the listening position� Obstacles 
can have a detrimental effect on tonal balance�

Ideally, the distance from the listening position 
to each loudspeaker should be the same as the 
distance between the left and right loudspeakers�
