Important Safety Precautions
Please note: Denon Professional and inMusic are not responsible for the use of its products or the misuse
of this information for any purpose. Denon Professional and inMusic are not responsible for the misuse of its
products caused by avoiding compliance with inspection and maintenance procedures. Please also refer to
the included safety and warranty manual for more information.
Suspenion/Rigging
• Only qualified persons using safe rigging standards should install this loudspeaker. The installer
is responsible for proper selection and use of hardware to properly and safely install the
speakers.
• Always install loudspeakers in accordance with applicable electrical and building codes.
• This loudspeaker should be suspended only from its suspension points (M10 x 1.5PH, 30mm
length).
• Do not suspend multiple loudspeakers in a vertical array.
• Make sure your cables are out of the way of performers, production crew, and audience so they
will not trip over them, pulling the loudspeaker off the stand or pole.
Stand-Mounting
• Always install loudspeakers in accordance with applicable electrical and building codes.
• Install the loudspeaker according to its maximum weight. Check the specifications of your stand
or pole to ensure it can support the loudspeaker's weight. Also, observe all safety precautions
specified by the manufacturer.
• Do not mount multiple loudspeakers on the same stand or pole.
• Always verify that the stand or pole is on a flat, level, and stable surface. Also, fully extend the
legs of tripod-style stands, and ensure its legs do not present a trip hazard.
• Inspect the stand (or pole and associated hardware) before each use and do not use equipment
with worn, damaged, or missing parts.
• Always be cautious in windy, outdoor conditions. You may need to place additional weight (e.g.,
sandbags) on stand's base to improve stability. Do not attach banners or similar items to any
part of a loudspeaker system. Such attachments could act as a sail and topple the system.
• Unless you are confident that you can handle the loudspeaker's weight, ask another person to
help you lift it onto the stand or pole.
• Make sure your cables are out of the way of performers, production crew, and audience so they
will not trip over them, pulling the loudspeaker off the stand or pole.
Sound Level
Permanent hearing loss may be caused by exposure to extremely high noise levels. The U.S.
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified permissible exposures to
certain noise levels. According to OSHA, exposure to high sound pressure levels (SPL) in excess of
these limits may result in hearing loss. When using equipment capable of generating high SPL, use
hearing protection while such equipment is under operation.
Hours per day SPL (dB) Example
8 90 Small gig
6 92 Train
4 95 Subway train
3 97 High level desktop monitors
2 100 Classical music concert
1.5 102 Riveting machine
1 105 Machine factory
0.50 110 Airport
0.25 or less 115 Rock concert

Using the Live Drive App
Delta Series loudspeakers also come equipped with wireless technology and the unmatched
capabilities of the Alto Professional Live Drive wireless speaker app. You'll be able to levelmatch, adjust EQ and compression, compensate for delay, and more. The Delta Series puts
active live sound control at your fingertips. Using the app on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch,
you can adapt the speakers to new venues or tweak settings remotely from any corner of the
room. Delta Series loudspeakers offer a powerful new experience, not only for your audiences,
but also for you—you get streamlined, sound-shaping capabilities at your fingertips.
Downloading the App
To download the App, just search for Live Drive in the App Store
and download the Alto
Professional Live Drive app.
Bluetooth Pairing
About Range: Delta Series loudspeakers use an advanced, extended-range Bluetooth
antenna design, allowing for ranges far greater than traditional Bluetooth devices. The typical
range is approximately 100 feet (30 meters) with a clear line of sight. However, the range may
vary depending on your source device and the environment.
To maximize the range:
• Set your source device on a flat surface and make sure there are no obstacles between
the loudspeaker and your device (e.g., walls, furniture, etc.).
• Turn off your source device's Wi-Fi.
• Turn off any unneeded 2.4 GHz devices in the nearby vicinity (e.g., other Bluetooth
devices, baby monitors, Wi-Fi access points, microwave ovens, etc.).
• Try using a different Bluetooth source device (iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch). Bluetooth
signal strength varies between different devices.
To pair the speaker to your Bluetooth device:
1. Do this on one loudspeaker only: With the loudspeaker powered on, press and release its
Pairing Button. Its Pairing LED will flash.
2. From your Bluetooth device's settings page, enable Bluetooth and select Denon
Professional as the device. When paired successfully, the Pairing LED will light
continuously. (This process may take up to 30 seconds.)
Important: If your device prompts you to enter a PIN code to pair it to the speaker, enter
0000 (four zeros).
3. Once your device is paired to the speaker, the speaker will remember the device even
after power-cycling it. If the device does not reconnect automatically, go to your device's
Bluetooth settings page and select Connect to reestablish the connection.
To erase all previous pairing and linking settings, press and hold the Pairing Button for 10
seconds. The LED will also flash to confirm the pairing records are erased. Now, you can pair
to a new device.

1. Power Input: Use the included IEC power
cable to connect this input to a power
source.
2. Fuse: If the unit's fuse is broken, lift this
tab to replace the fuse. Replace it with a
fuse with an appropriate rating (printed
under the unit's power cable input). Using
a fuse with an incorrect rating can damage
the unit and/or fuse.
3. Power Switch: Use this switch to power
the loudspeaker on or off.
4. Power/Standby LED: This LED illuminates
when the loudspeaker is powered on.
5. Standby On/Off Switch: By default, this
loudspeaker has its Standby Mode
enabled: when no incoming audio signal is
detected for approximately 15 minutes, the
loudspeaker will enter a low-power state.
The loudspeaker will exit Standby Mode within 0.5 seconds of detecting an incoming audio signal. Change
this recessed switch's setting to the Off position to disable this feature.
6. Logo On/Off Switch: Press this to turn the light in the Denon Professional logo on or off.
7. Line/Mic Switch: Engage (depress) this switch if your Input 1 audio source is a microphone. Disengage (raise)
this switch if your Input 1 audio source is line-level.
8. Input 1: Use a standard XLR or 1/4" (6.35 mm) cable to connect your audio source to this input. This input
accepts both line-level and microphone-level sources. Set the Line/Mic Switch to the appropriate setting.
9. Input 2: Use a standard XLR or 1/4" (6.35 mm) cable to connect your audio source to this input. This input
accepts line-level sources only.
10. Input Volume Knob: Use this knob to set the level of the audio going into its corresponding input below.
When connecting to the output of a pro audio mixer or signal processor, we recommend setting this to the
0 dB setting; the Delta Series loudspeaker's gain structure is optimized for standard XLR or 1/4" (6.35 mm)
maximum signal levels of +10 dB RMS/continuous (+20 dB peak) from your source. Such devices include live
sound audio mixers, rack mount signal processors, DJ mixers, etc.
11. Signal/Limit LED: This LED illuminates green when an incoming audio signal is detected. It illuminates red
when the audio signal level is too high and is being dynamically reduced to protect the loudspeaker from
damage or distortion. If this LED is continually illuminated red, or if the audio output sounds excessively
distorted, then reduce the volume of the connected audio source, or reduce the setting of the Input Volume
Knob.
12. Mix Out: Use a standard XLR cable to connect this balanced output to the input of a second Delta Series
loudspeaker. Audio is sent from this output at 0 dB, depending on the setting of the Output Mix Switch.
13. Output Mix Switch: In the "out" (raised) position, the Mix Out is the sum of Input 1 and Input 2, pre-volume
(i.e., the Input Volume Knobs do not affect the audio signal level of the Mix Out). In the "in" (depressed)
position, the Mix Out is the sum of Input 1 and Input 2 but adjustable with the Input Volume Knobs.
14. Ground Switch: Engage (depress) this switch to reduce hum or noise.
15. DSP Mode Button: Press this button to set the loudspeaker's internal DSP to any of the following settings:
• Flat: No change to the audio.
• Contour: Boosted bass and treble with a gradual cut of mid-range frequencies—a useful setting for
most contemporary music.
• 80Hz HP: Applies a high-pass filter. This is useful when using the Delta 12 as a crossover with a
subwoofer that does not have a high-pass output. This setting is also useful for cutting all bass
frequencies (e.g., for in speech-only applications, or when used as a delay or fill loudspeaker where the
extra bass frequencies are not needed).
• Ext LF: Extends the loudspeaker's low-frequency response, providing increased output of bass
frequencies.
• Custom: Applies your custom DSP mode, set in the Live Drive app.
16. Pairing Button: Press and release this button to pair the loudspeaker to your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. The
Pairing LED will illuminate when it is paired. See the Bluetooth Pairing section for instructions.
