English Manual Congratulations on the purchase of your new DALI Piano speakers. This manual contains information on setup and maintenance of DALI Royal Series. Running-in 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 initial period. Unlike other mechanical systems, a DALI speaker does not wear out - in fact, regular use will extend its lifetime.
English For the perfect sound experience, the right speaker must be connected to the output terminal marked "R" or "Right" on your amplifier and the left speaker to the terminal marked "L" or "Left". If just one speaker in a stereo or surround sound system is not connected in phase, the bass will be weak and the overall sound will be diffuse.
English Bi-wiring and Bi-amping Bi-wiring or bi-amping improves the sound quality significantly and is highly recommended. Bi-wiring provides greater openness in the sound image and reduces distortion. Bi-amping provides even greater openness in the sound image and adds to increased dynamism. Bi-wiring The top terminal pair are connected to the high frequency section of the crossover network, and the bottom terminal pair are connected to the bass section of the crossover network.
English Positioning Once you have connected up your new Royal speakers, you need to begin the process of finding the optimum position for your speakers in relation to your listening position - and adjusting the surround sound amplifier, if applicable. It is worth spending a little time experimenting, as the correct setup and tuning will provide a significantly better sound experience.
English DALI Royal Scepter and Menuet are designed for positioning on a stand or shelf. If you position the speakers on a shelf or against a wall, it is important to ensure that sufficient room is allowed for air expelled from the bass port at the back of the casing. Please avoid positioning the speakers on a tightly-packed shelf or right up close against a wall (Fig. 7).
English Both the amount and quality of the deep bass depend on the size and shape of the room, and the position of the speakers. If positioned near a side or back wall, this will accentuate the bass. A corner location will accentuate it even more, but will also increase the reflections. The decision is yours, so experiment with different positions to find which provides the ideal sound for you.
English It is worth noting that when the tone controls are turned above the neutral setting this significantly burdens both speakers and amplifier. On a good sound system tone controls should only be used to compensate for poor recordings and not to permanently compensate for weaknesses elsewhere in the system. So, DALI recommends that the tone controls generally be set to the neutral position, and you achieve your desired sound image through correct positioning of the speakers.
English Specifications There are countless methods for evaluating speakers. However, none of them actually represent how a speaker really sounds. It is up to the individual to decide whether one speaker sounds better than another. So we only give you the specifications that are of real value to you. The DALI Royal range has been designed to reproduce music as honestly as possible - and we know we have succeeded.
