Our ultra-modern factory in page. Denmark is fully equipped with facilities for development and production of quality speakers.
Unpacking Unpacking After unpacking and setting up the equipment in the most suitable way, the enclosed spikes should be mounted ( MS5, MS4 and AS2). The thread bushings are embedded in the base. After mounting, tighten the lock nuts to ensure the best possible mechanical stability. DALI ® recommends the use of spikes for floor-standing speakers to ensure the Euphonia best possible acoustic connection between floor and speaker.
Positioning Positioning EUPHONIA MS5/MS4 MS5 og MS4 The ideal location for the speakers is perpendicular to the back wall. They should be located so that the distance between them is equivalent to the distance from the speakers to the listening position. Angling the speakers towards the listening position is not recommended unless the distance between the speakers is very large.
Positioning EUPHONIA RS3 Positioning RS3 The Euphonia RS3 is suspended on the rear or side wall using the enclosed fittings, which allow horizontal and vertical angling of the RS3. It is important to angle the tweeter module towards the listening position to ensure the widest possible frequency range. Positioning EUPHONIA AS2 AS2 Adjustment options make it possible to integrate the AS2 even when it is located somewhere other than centrally between the two front speakers.
D How the room How the room affects the sound affects the sound 24,0 Some of the sound you hear does not come directly from the actual speakers but are reflections from floor, ceiling and walls. These reflections can be dampened by objects such as furniture, plants and carpets. If the sound is bright, adding soft items such as curtains and carpets can help. If the room has large window panes, drawing the curtains will prevent reflections from the glass surfaces.
Connection Connection & Cables The connection to your amplifier is extremely important for your sound experience. Before you connect cables or make any changes to the connections, you must disconnect your amplifier from AC-power. Always use the same type and length of cable for the left and right speakers. This class of speaker should be connected with very high quality cables such as DALI ® Wave or Wasatch. Using inferior cables is like putting low cost tyres on a fullblooded sports car.
Tri-wiring Bi-wiring Tri-wiring / Bi-wiring Tri-wiring means that the bass, midrange and treble tone ranges are each fed through their own separate speaker cable. In the ultimate set-up, there is an amplifier to handle each range (tri-amping). Tri-amping is the sophisticated consequence of multi-wiring in a multipath speaker, which allows the maximum benefit of the EUPHONIA MS5. All other EUPHONIA models are connected by bi-wiring.
Connecting the AS2 subwoofer Connecting EUPHONIA Thanks to its active crossover network and numerous connection options, the AS2 AS2 provides further advantages such as stepless variable phase. The AS2 is connected to a line signal either via 'Left/Right Input', 'Mono Input' or 'LFE Input'. It is important that the level of the connected line signal is controlled together with the equipment’s volume control.
Connecting Connecting AS2 subwoofer continued EUPHONIA AS2 Connection to mono signal with full frequency content If the subwoofer is only to be connected to a single channel, e.g. when Mono signal with using two subwoofers in a stereo set-up, and you want to use the sub- full frequency woofer’s built-in crossover network, the 'Mono Input' must be used. content With this set-up, you can take a high-pass signal (without the deep tones) on the 'Left Output'.
Output terminals Functions The output terminals (Left & Right) provide a filtered output signal with a crosso- EUPHONIA ver frequency of 70 Hz and cut off with a 2nd order high-pass filter. This set of ter- AS2 minals can be used if the subwoofer is used together with the speaker driven by a separate amplifier, if you want only the frequency range over 70 Hz to be handled here, e.g.
Adjustement Adjustment of the AS2 subwoofer EUPHONIA AS2 Begin by setting the 'Level' and 'Low-pass Crossover Frequency' to the middle position (’12 o’clock’). Turn the 'Phase' control in the '0' position, and then set 'Power' to the 'ON' position. If the subwoofer is connected via the LFE Input, both the 'Level' and 'Low-Pass Crossover Frequency' controls will not be functioning, and should be set to the minimum position.
Adjusting EUPHONIA Choice of crossover frequency With the volume level in place, you can get to grips with the equally important adjustment of the transition between the AS2 Low-pass crossover frequency front speakers and the AS2. This is done by adjusting up and down on 'Low-pass Crossover Frequency' until you can hear the bass is smooth and has no 'holes.' Repeat the volume adjustment when you make this adjustment.
Maintenance Maintenance Clean the cabinets with a soft, dry cloth. If the cabinets are dirty, wipe with a soft cloth dipped in all-purpose cleaner and then well wrung out. Be very careful if wiping the speaker membranes, as they are very fragile. Fabric frameworks can be vacuumed and wiped with a well-wrung, lint-free cloth and mild all-purpose cleaner. Quality in all aspects DALI ® - quality in all aspects The Euphonia series has been developed and produced without compromise of any kind.
