    English Manual Congratulations on the purchase of your new DALI Concept speakers. In this manual, you can read about set-up, adjustment and maintenance of the Concept series speakers. Standard accessories Floor-standing DALI Concept speakers comes with 4 spikes for fitting beneath the speaker.
  • Page 5 Like any other mechanical system, a speaker needs to be "run in", so you can look forward to a gradual improvement in sound quality over the ini- tial period. Unlike other mechanical systems, a DALI speaker does not wear out - in fact, regular use will extend its lifetime.
  • Page 6 (Fig. 2) Positioning Once you have connected your new DALI Concept speakers, you need to begin the process of searching for the perfect location for the speakers in relation to your listening position - and adjusting the surround amplifier, if applicable.
  • Page 7 All DALI Concept models may be used as rear-channel loudspeakers. If you wish to wall-mount your rear speakers, DALI Concept 1 is an excellent choice, as it is factory-fitted with mounting hardware. For the ultimate surround experi-...
  • Page 8 Fig. 5. 7.1 - channel surround setup Wall-Mounting Concept 1 Concept 1 is particularly suited to wall-mounting, a useful feature, for instance, when employed as rear loudspeakers in a surround system. Before wall-mount- ing, it is important to attach the enclosed rubber feet to the rear panel of the loudspeaker as shown below.
  • Page 9 The LFE input terminal should therefore only be used together with a special subwoofer output terminal in which the signal has already been filtered, so the subwoofer only receives the lowest frequencies. Fig. 6 DALI Concept speakers are well suited for 5.1 or 7.1 surround systems.
  • Page 10 - but use separate channels. You may wish to consult your dealer. Note: When using two Concept SUB, the best results are normally achie- ved by positioning the two subwoofers relatively close to each other (1 - 2 metres). If in doubt: Ask your DALI dealer for advice.
  • Page 11 Tuning of Concept SUB Once you have chosen the set-up and connection you are going to use, and have positioned the subwoofer in the desired spot, you can begin the task of tuning the system. Please note that the actual location of the subwoofer greatly affects its contribution to the total acoustic image.
  • Page 12 English from Concept SUB - but without the bass being too dominant. The bass should be firm and precise, so that the subwoofer provides the bass that is present in the music/sound track - neither more nor less. When connecting to a surround sound system it may be an advantage to select a fixed setting for Concept SUB and only adjust the level via the surround amplifier’s separate adjustment of the subwoofer output level.

  • Page 13: The Listening Room

    Try hanging a soft textile surface behind the speaker, place a rug in front of it, or place a large plant to the side and experience the surprisingly large effect doing so will have on the quality and precision of the sound.

  • Page 14: Power And Acoustic Pressure

    Ensuring that you keep the volume low enough so the sound remains clear and undistorted will minimise the strain on both speakers and amplifier. DALI recommends that the tone controls are set to neutral position.

  • Page 15: Dali - More Than Meets The Eye

    At DALI the cabinet is both a piece of furniture and the speaker's sound base, and is therefore constructed from acoustically-correct materials.

  • Page 16: Specifications

    Only by listening it is pos- sible to determine whether one speaker sounds better than another. So we only give you the specifications that are of real value to you. The DALI Concept range has been designed to reproduce music as honestly as pos- sible - and we know we have succeeded.
