Each DALI KORE speaker is fitted
with two pairs of binding post
terminals on the connection panel
located on the rear face of the
plinth. The upper pair of terminals
connects to the Balanced Drive
SMC midrange and EVO-K Hybrid
Tweeter module, while the lower
terminal pair connects to the
Balanced Drive SMC bass drivers.
Included in the Accessory Kit are
four Terminal Jumpers, which can
be used to connect the upper and
lower pairs of binding posts, so that
only a single twin-core speaker
cable is required to connect each
speaker to a single power amplifier.
If the terminal jumpers are
removed, two twin-core speaker
cables will be needed, sharing the
output from a single power amplifier
in a “bi-wire” format.
Diagram 2 shows single-wire,
bi-wire and bi-amp connection
formats.

When bi-wiring or bi-
amping, ALWAYS remove
the terminal jumpers
between the terminals
before connecting the
speaker cables.
The specification and type of
speaker cables you use to connect
your DALI KORE speakers can
influence their audio performance.
For best results, use high quality
cable with a minimum conductor
cross-sectional area of 2.0 mm
2
.
Each speaker cable should be of
similar length and less than 20
metres long. Your DALI KORE
retailer will be happy to offer advice
on the best speaker cable for your
setup.
When connecting your DALI KORE
speakers to an amplifier, begin by
connecting the speaker cables to
the speaker terminals. Ensure that
the cable wires marked “positive” or
coloured red are connected to the
positive (red) speaker terminals,
and “negative” or black cable wires
are connected to the negative
(black) speaker terminals.
The DALI KORE connection
terminals can accommodate
stripped cables, 4 mm plugs or
cable spades.
Here’s how to connect each type:
•
Stripped cables: Unscrew the
speaker terminals fully. Twist
the stripped cable strands
together, ensuring there are no
stray strands, and insert the
cable into the holes through the
terminal posts. Finally, tighten the
terminals down onto the stripped
cable securely. We recommend
checking the terminals for
tightness soon after you first
tighten them and periodically
thereafter.
•
4 mm plugs: Insert the plugs
directly into the end of the
speaker terminals. The terminals
tighten around the plug to
strengthen the connection
and minimise the chance of
mechanical buzzing.
•
Cable spades: Fully unscrew the
speaker terminals and position
each cable spade arm either
side of a terminal post. Secure
the cable spades by tightening
the terminals. We recommend
checking the terminals for
tightness soon after you first
tighten them and periodically
thereafter.
With cables connected to your
DALI KORE speakers, they can
now be connected to the amplifier’s
output terminals. Ensure the
amplifier is switched OFF before
you make any connections.
Connect the cables from the left
speaker to the amplifier’s left
channel output terminals, and the
cables from the right speaker
to the amplifier’s right channel
output terminals. Ensure that the
cable wires marked “positive” or
coloured red are connected to the
positive amplifier output terminals,
and wires marked “negative” or
coloured black are connected
to the negative amplifier output
terminals.
