3. Ustawienia początkowe

Before powering on, set the initial controls on the rear panel:

• Tryb zasilania: Set to "AUTO" for automatic power on/off with signal detection, or "ON" for continuous operation.
• Faza: Start with "0°". Adjust later if bass sounds thin or out of sync with main speakers.
• Krzyżowanie: Set to a starting point based on your main speakers' low-frequency capabilities. A common starting point is 80 Hz.
• Tom: Set to a low level (e.g., 1/4 or 1/3 of the way up) to avoid sudden loud bass when first powering on.

Działanie

Włączanie/wyłączanie zasilania

Once connected, flip the main power switch on the rear panel to the "ON" position. If "Power Mode" is set to "AUTO", the subwoofer will power on automatically when an audio signal is detected and enter standby mode when no signal is present for a period.

Dostosowywanie ustawień dźwięku

• Tom: Adjust the volume knob to balance the subwoofer's output with your main speakers. The bass should be felt, not overtly heard as a separate speaker.
• Krzyżowanie: Fine-tune the crossover frequency. This determines the point at which the subwoofer takes over from your main speakers. If your main speakers are small, a higher crossover frequency (e.g., 100-120 Hz) may be appropriate. For larger speakers, a lower frequency (e.g., 60-80 Hz) might be better.
• Faza: If the bass sounds weak or hollow, try switching the phase between 0° and 180°. The correct setting will result in the most impactful and coherent bass.

Make small adjustments and listen to various types of audio content to find the optimal settings for your room and preferences.

Konserwacja

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your DALI SUB C-8 D subwoofer, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
