INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your new Dynaudio DBM50. The DBM50 is the first desktop focused nearfield monitor by Dynaudio, and proudly continues the uncompromised sound and build quality that Dynaudio has been synonymous with for decades. The handcrafted drivers and the carefully matched amp channels and crossover will give you unprecedented performance for many years to come. It is most important, however, that you take a few minutes at this early stage of your DBM50’s life, to read this manual.
OVERVIEW - REAR PANEL Correct setup and connections is essential to achieve optimal performance from your monitors. Please follow the instructions on the following pages. 1. Power On/Off switch 7. Filter switches 2. AC power Input - High Pass 3. Balanced analog input (XLR) - LF - Low filter setting 4. Unbalance analog input (RCA) - MF - Mid filter setting 5. Power Mode switch - HF - Hi filter setting 6. Remote 8. Level - Sensitivity switch 5 DBM50_prelim_2402_2012.
SETTING UP 1/2. Power On/Off switch/AC Power In 7. Filter switches Before switching on, make sure Mains Voltage matches your areas Mains Voltage specification. LF - This switch controls the bass gain level using shelf-type EQ. The level can be set to +2dB, 0dB or -2dB. 3. Balanced analog Input Audio Input is via a female XLR connector. The Input is electronically balanced with following connections. The connections are printed on the rear for easy reference. 2 1 3 1:0 2:+ 3:- 4.
INDICATORS & POSITIONING Protection The DBM50 monitor has several built in protection systems to reduce the risk of hazard or damage due to overloading. Both power amplifiers have thermal protection. This activates if a problem should occur, and helps protect both the electronics and the loudspeaker drivers. The woofer channel has a built in limiter that protects the woofer unit from too much excursion. It works by reducing the gain of the circuit when a certain threshold level is reached.
MISCELLANEOUS Troubleshooting If Power LED lights green and no sound, check your input signal i.e. by switching speakers. Care Components of the highest quality is used in your DBM50. This assures years of trouble free operation. Following precautions should still be made though. Avoid running the system into severe clipping. Even there is an advanced protection system, you may be able to destroy your speakers by severe overpowering.
