1.0 OWNER’S MANUAL

Congratulations with your new ﬁne speakers. Please read this manual thoroughly before unpacking and installing your new speakers to get the most out of your purchase. You can ﬁnd more information on our website: www.dali.dk or by contacting your authorized DALI dealer.

2.0 UNPACKING

Be careful not to damage the contents when you unpack the parts. Check that all parts are contained in the cardboard box, see Table 1. Keep the packaging materials should your speaker need to be relocated or serviced.

3.0 MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the speaker surfaces can be done with ordinary household cleaning agents. Avoid using products that are abrasive, or contain acid, alkali or anti-bacterial agents. Avoid using aerosols. Avoid using cleaning agents directly on the drive units and clean them with extreme care, particularly the tweeter. The grille fabric may be cleaned using a vacuum cleaner or a normal clothes brush.

4.0 AVOID DIRECT SUNLIGHT

The surfaces of the speakers may fade over time when exposed to direct sunlight. Therefore avoid positioning the speakers in direct sunlight.

5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION AND DISPOSAL

DALI products are designed to meet the international directives concerning Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) and disposal of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). The waste symbol indicates that the speakers meet the directives, see Figure 1. The speakers must be processed or recycled appropriately. Please consult your local waste authority for guidance.

6.0 RUNNING-IN

You should expect the sound quality from your new speakers to gradually improve during the ﬁrst period of use. Nothing particular has to be done in order to run in the speakers – but expect up to 100 hours of playback (depending on playback level) before full performance level is reached.

7.0 SPEAKER SETUP AND POSITIONING

7.1 LEKTOR 1/2/3/LCR

The speakers can be positioned on a stand/shelf or hung on a wall using the integrated wall bracket(s). If positioned on a stand or shelf, the enclosed rubber bumpers can be mounted under the speaker for stable and vibration free positioning, see Figure 2A. If hung on a wall, mount the bumpers on the rear edge of the speakers, see Figure 2B. The speakers are hung on a wall using one or two screw(s) mounted in the wall. The screw(s) must ﬁt the wall bracket(s) on the rear side of the speaker, see Figure 2C. LEKTOR LCR can be hung vertically if used as left/right/rear speaker, or horizontally if used as center channel speaker. If used as an on-wall center channel, two screws must be used to hang the speaker, see Figure 2D.

UK DE DK JPN

7.2 LEKTOR 6/8/SUB

The speakers are designed to stand on the ﬂoor. LEKTOR 6 and 8 can be used with spikes (Metric M8 thread), or rubber bumpers under the speakers, see Figure 2A/3. Be careful not to over tighten the locking nuts. Spikes or rubber bumpers can improve the sound quality. You can try both to hear what gives the best sound quality in your setup. Please be aware, that spikes may damage the ﬂoor, if it is not protected by e.g. coins under the spikes.

8.0 MAGNETIC SHIELDING

The speaker drive units produce a magnetic ﬁeld which may interfere with CRT televisions/ monitors, hard drives, audio and video tapes as well as swipe cards etc. Therefore keep such items away from the speakers to avoid damage.

9.0 POSITIONING

To achieve the best results, the loudspeaker setup should be symmetrical round your favorite listening position (except for LEKTOR SUB), see Figure 4A - C. We recommend that you experiment with the position of your loudspeakers – the sound quality will change depending on the loudspeaker position. For LEKTOR 1/2/3/LCR, the speakers should ideally be positioned, so that the height of the tweeter is approximately at ear height when seated in your favorite listening position. LEKTOR 6, 8 and SUB are designed as ﬂoor standing speakers. They should be positioned minimum 10 – 20 cm (4 – 8”) from the rear wall. Ideally LEKTOR 1/2/LCR are designed to be positioned ﬂat up against the wall. LEKTOR 3 is designed for both stand mounting and on-wall positioning ﬂat up against the wall.

Objects positioned between the speaker and listening position might negatively affect sound quality. The speakers are designed to meet our wide dispersion principle, so they should not be angled towards the listening position, but be positioned parallel with the rear wall, see Figure 4D. By parallel positioning, the distortion in the main listening area will be lowered and the room integration will be better. The wide dispersion principle will also ensure that sound is spread evenly within a large area in the listening room.

Every room has its own distinctive acoustics, which inﬂuence the way we experience sound from a speaker. The sound you hear consists of direct sound from the speakers and reﬂected sound from the ﬂoor, ceiling and walls. The latter will affect how you experience the sound.

As a basic rule, try to avoid large, hard and reﬂective areas in the immediate vicinity of your loudspeakers as it will typically cause strong reﬂections, which might disturb the precision and spatial effect of the sound reproduction. Reﬂection might be suppressed by positioning e.g. a plant between the speaker and the reﬂecting surface. Soft items such as carpets, curtains etc. might help if the sound is too bright.

Both the amount and quality of the deep bass depend on the size and shape of the room, and the position of the speakers. Positioning the speakers near a side or back wall will accentuate the bass. A corner location will accentuate it even more, but will also increase the reﬂections.

10.0 CONNECTION

Always turn off your ampliﬁer/subwoofer before connecting any cables or altering any connections.

We recommend using special speaker and signal cables. Consult your authorized DALI dealer for guidance on selection of speaker and signal cables. Use same type cable for all speakers in the setup (except for the subwoofer). Make sure to connect the correct ampliﬁer output to the correct speaker – see Figure 5A - C for stereo/surround sound setups. Make sure to connect the positive ampliﬁer output terminal (red) to the positive speaker input terminal (red) and the negative ampliﬁer output terminal (black) to the negative speaker input terminal (black), see Figure 6. If just one speaker is incorrectly connected, the bass might be weak and the overall sound might be diffuse.

Make sure that there are no loose cable strands/ends which potentially can short circuit and damage the ampliﬁer, see Figure 7. The binding posts accept bare cable ends or 4mm banana plugs.

11.0 LEKTOR SUB

LEKTOR SUB is an active subwoofer with built-in ampliﬁer. On the bottom of the subwoofer there is a bass reﬂex port opening. Make sure that the rubber feet will make clearance between the ﬂoor and the bottom of the subwoofer, so that air can ﬂow freely from the bass reﬂex port. On the rear side of the subwoofer you will ﬁnd the ampliﬁer (see Figure 8), which have the following features:

1) Line In L + R, connect your stereo or surround sound ampliﬁer to these inputs using a RCA cable (sold separately). Adjustment of “Phase”, “Crossover” and “Volume” must be done on the subwoofer. You might also want to use connection through the LFE input (see point 2).

2) LFE In, connect your surround sound ampliﬁer to this input using a RCA cable (sold separately). Adjustment of “Crossover” must be done in the surround sound ampliﬁer.

3) Auto selector: On: the subwoofer is always on when the power switch (9) is on. Auto: the subwoofer will power up upon detection of an input signal on the “Line In” inputs (1 +

2). The subwoofer will power down after approximately 20 minutes with no input signal present on the input connectors. Off: the subwoofer will be powered down.

4) “Volume” adjustment: Start adjusting the volume of your subwoofer so the bass level matches the level from the main speakers (with the Crossover (5) knob in the middle position and Phase switch (6) in the 180° setting). Adjust the level so the contribution from the subwoofer is ﬁrm and precise - but without the bass being too dominant. If you adjust the volume level too high, your total sound experience may be disturbed by distortion. Remember that the location of the subwoofer/listening position has a major effect on the sound pressure you experience.
