1.0 INTRODUCTION Congratulations with your new DALI IKON MK2 loudspeaker. It is important to us that your new DALI loudspeakers are set up and connected optimally. For this reason, we recommend that you read this manual and follow its instructions (This manual only refers to the new IKON MK2 series). The manual contains instructions for setup and connection, as well as tips and advice on how to get the most out of your new loudspeakers.
UK DE DK 3.1 DALI IKON 5, 6, 7 The speakers are designed to stand on the floor, using spikes or rubber bumpers under the speakers, (see Figure 3+4). Be careful not to over tighten the contra nuts. Spikes or rubber bumpers can improve the sound quality. You can try both to hear what gives the best sound quality in your setup. Please be aware that spikes may damage the floor if it is not protected.
3.5 DALI IKON ON-WALL DALI IKON ON-WALL is designed exclusively for wall-mounting. The front baffle is tilted for optimal angling relative to the listening position.
UK DE DK NOTE: When bi-wiring or bi-amping, ALWAYS remove the metal jumpers between the terminals before connecting cables (see figure 9C + 9D). For bi-wiring, connect two sets of loudspeaker cables, one to the top terminals and one to the bottom terminals of the speakers. At the amplifier end, connect both sets of loudspeaker cables to the same pair of terminals on the amplifier (see figure 9C). For bi-amping, connect two sets of loudspeaker cables, one to the top terminals and one to the bottom terminals.
8.0 POWER AND ACOUSTIC PRESSURE How loud a speaker is able to play and still sound good is completely dependent on the signal it has to reproduce. So, in practice, it is not possible to define an unequivocal level for use in comparing different speakers. Lots of pure, undistorted output from a large amplifier is better than a distorted signal from a small amplifier stretched beyond its capacity.
UK DE DK 9.3 STEREO CONNECTIONS If you want to use DALI IKON SUB in a stereo setup, your stereo (pre-) amplifier/receiver should have either a set of stereo RCA line outputs or a mono RCA line output available (please refer to the instruction manual of your stereo (pre-)amplifier/receiver). The line output connector(s) of your stereo (pre-)amplifier/receiver must be connected to the LINE INPUT connectors (L+R) of the subwoofer via one or two RCA cables (sold separately). 9.4 SURROUND SOUND CONNECTIONS 9.4.
9.6 INSTALLING AND ADJUSTING Start by checking that the voltage of your mains output corresponds to the indication on the back of your DALI IKON SUB. 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.
UK DE DK 9.7 VOLUME ADJUSTMENT On the rear of the subwoofer you can increase or reduce the volume by turning the VOLUME control clockwise or counter clockwise. The volume should be adjusted so that the bass matches the level of your main speakers. You should be able to appreciate your subwoofer’s contribution to the overall sound without it ever being overpowering. Bass must be tight and accurate so that the subwoofer reproduces the exact amount of bass present in the music/soundtrack; no more no less.
9.9 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 the POWER switch is set to OFF there will still be voltage inside the subwoofer. If you completely disconnect the subwoofer from the mains voltage, please be sure to remove the mains plug from the subwoofer. When changing connections, always disconnect the mains voltage from the subwoofer.
UK H) I) s J) DE DK FUSE compartment: If the subwoofer fails to power up when connected to the mains and the POWER switch is set to ON, the fuse may have blown or be faulty. Replace the fuse with the same type as originally supplied – see fuse type on the amplifier back plate. If the fuse blows repeatedly, have the subwoofer checked at an authorised service centre – contact your authorised dealer. MAINS connector: Connect the supplied power cord to the MAINS connector and your mains outlet.
