THANK YOU FOR

CHOOSING DALI

We know you can’t wait to hear your new DALI loudspeakers, so we’ll save the more

technical stuff until later. That way, you’ll have something to read once your system is up

and running.

But first, unless you are experienced and confident in hi-fi matters, please take the time to

read at least the sections on CONNECTIONS and PLACEMENT, before wiring your new

DALI loudspeakers to your system.

It is the goal of this manual to assist you in obtaining the finest possible performance from

your new DALI loudspeakers. If additional assistance is required, always feel free to contact

your authorised DALI dealer.

STEREO AND SURROUND

CONNECTION

The  loudspeaker  carton  indicates  whether  the

speaker inside is Left or Right or Centre. Position

them correctly.

Always turn your amplifier off before connecting

or  disconnecting  any  cables. Always  use  equal

lengths of cable for the left and right speakers.

Cable should be connected between loudspeaker

and amplifier, red plus (+) terminal to red plus (+)

terminal and black minus (-) terminal to black mi-

nus (-) terminal. It is important that the connections

are made correctly and „in phase.“ Incorrect, out-

of-phase connection will result in a diffuse stereo

image and weak bass.

Your DALI Suite loudspeakers have two pairs of

terminals. If you do not choose to use bi-wiring or

bi-amping,  make  sure  that  the  enclosed  metal

straps are in place and tightened by hand, one

connecting red terminal to red terminal, the other

connecting black terminal to black terminal. For

normal use, connect only one terminal pair to the

amp as shown in (Fig. 1).

In a surround system, connect centre, front and

rear surround loudspeakers to the surround amp

as shown in (Fig. 2).
