DLM8/12 Loudspeaker: Rear Panel Features

1. Power Connection

This is a standard 3-prong IEC power connector.
Connect the detachable power cord (included in
the packaging with the loudspeaker) to the power
receptacle, and plug the other end of the power
cord into an AC outlet.
Make sure that the AC power is matched to
the AC power indicated on the rear panel
(to the left of the IEC receptacle).
Disconnecting the plug's ground pin is
dangerous. Don't do it!

2. Power Switch

Press the top of this rocker switch inwards to turn on
the loudspeaker. The front panel power LED will glow
with happiness...or at least it will if the loudspeaker is
plugged into a suitable live AC mains supply.
Press the bottom of this rocker switch inwards to turn
off the loudspeaker.
As a general guide, DLM loudspeakers should
be turned on last, after any mixer or other
signal source. As such, they should also be
turned off first. This will reduce the possibility of any
turn-on or turn-off thumps and other noises generated
by any upstream equipment from coming out of the
speakers.

3. Fan Vents

Do not obstruct the ventilation openings
of the loudspeaker. Fans move air over the
heatsinks to cool down the power transistors.
If these vents are restricted, then the loudspeaker may
overheat and shut down.

4. Kickstand

The kickstand on the DLM loudspeaker works
similarly to a kickstand on a bicycle. Simply pull
the kickstand out until it locks in place. Now tilt the
loudspeaker back so it leans on the kickstand. At a 50˚
angle (and aimed at your ears, not your knees), the
kickstand is ideal for using the loudspeaker as a
monitor. Bicycles aren't used as monitors, only as mains.
Be careful not to unplug the unit when
engaging the kickstand...unless you're into
that sort of thing.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS EQUIPMENT TO RAIN OR
