blows repeatedly, have the subwoofer checked at an authorised service centre – contact

10.0 THE LISTENING ROOM

Every room has its own distinctive acoustics, which inﬂuence the way we experience sound from

a speaker. The sound you hear consists of direct sound from the speakers and reﬂected sound

from the ﬂoor, ceiling and walls. The latter will affect how you experience the sound. As a basic

rule, try to avoid large, hard and reﬂective areas in the immediate vicinity of your loudspeakers

as it will typically cause strong reﬂections, which might disturb the precision and spatial effect

of the sound reproduction. Reﬂection might be suppressed by positioning e.g. a plant between

the speaker and the reﬂecting surface. Soft items such as carpets, curtains etc. might help if the

sound is too bright. Both the amount and quality of the deep bass depend on the size and shape

of the room, and the position of the speakers. Positioning the speakers near a side or back wall

will accentuate the bass.

A corner location will accentuate it even more, but will also increase the reﬂections.

11.0 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

In Table 2 you will ﬁnd the most common speciﬁcations for our speakers. Please have in mind that

there are countless methods for measuring speakers. However, none of them tell you anything

useful about how a speaker really sounds. Only your ears can decide whether one speaker sounds

better than another. Like all our speakers, DALI IKON MK2 series is designed to reproduce music

as honestly as possible.
