4.3 USING TWO DALI SUB P-10 DSS SUBWOOFERS
In most cases you will achieve excellent results with one DALI SUB P-10 DSS. Use of two
subwoofers is possible as a no-compromise stereo solution, or for reproduction of very powerful
sound pressures in a stereo or surround setup in larger rooms.
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 LEFT connector on the DALI SUB P-10 DSS 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 RIGHT connector on the DALI SUB
P-10 DSS 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 authorized 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 P-10 DSS.
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 remote control (see chapter 5.7 ‘Remote Control’), or by 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 P-10 DSS.
