Introduction

Thank you for choosing DENON® and congratulations on your purchase of the DSB-150 wireless
speaker system. The DSB-150 is a self-amplified stereo speaker system that uses Bluetooth® wireless
communication to receive a signal from any standard Bluetooth equipped device capable of stereo
audio transmission (A2DP).

Using the simple controls on the DSB-150, and its remote control, you can adjust the volume of the
system or operate the basic music play back functions of your connected devices. An auxiliary analog
input also allows you to connect any music source that has a standard 3.5mm connector to the DSB-150.
We hope you’ll enjoy it for years to come.

Unpacking and Setting Up Your DSB-150

Carefully unpack the system. If there is any sign of damage from transit, report it immediately to your
dealer and/or delivery service. Keep the shipping carton and packing materials for future use. Be sure to
keep your purchase receipt in a safe place, as it may be required for warranty purposes.

Placement

Your DSB-150 will sound great just about anywhere. If you put it near a wall or corner the bass response
will be enhanced. Blocking the bass ports on the rear of the cabinet will reduce bass response.

Volume Display

There is a 10-segment volume display on the front behind the
grille. The display lights blue when volume adjustments are
made. After a few seconds the display turns off . When the system
receives a signal from the remote control, the bottom LED fl ickers.

Remote Control

The remote control has the same buttons as are on the top of the
system, with the addition of playback control buttons that let you
control your compatible Bluetooth devices:

13 Play /Pause
2 Stop

8 Skip back / fast reverse
9 Skip forward / fast forward

Notes About the Remote

When you unpack your remote control there will be a plastic tab extending from the battery
compartment. This keeps the battery from being depleted. Pull out this tab before using the remote
control. Eventually you’ll need to replace the remote battery. When the battery is depleted, the remote
won’t reliably operate the DSB-150. You will need to replace it with a new CR2025 3V lithium coin-type
battery, available at many retailers.

When using the remote you should be able to see the DSB-150. Point the remote control at the front
panel of the system when pressing the buttons. If the DSB-150 does not respond to the remote, try
moving closer to the system. Operating range is specifi ed to be 15 feet, ±30°.

Bluetooth Details

Getting Started – Pairing

Before you can stream Bluetooth audio to your DSB-150, you have to pair it to your device.

To pair the DSB-150 to a device for the fi rst time:

1. Go to Bluetooth settings on your device. Make sure

the device’s Bluetooth feature is set to “on”.

3. The DSB-150 has two ways to initiate pairing:

NFC (Near Field Communication) or “tap-to-pair”.
The newest and easiest pairing method. If you
have an NFC enabled device, simply place it
gently on the top of the DSB-150. Your phone
or tablet does the rest, and you can be playing

Look at the Bluetooth list on your device. You

may have to select “search for devices” for a new
device to appear in the list of available devices.
Once “DSB-150“ appears in that list, simply
select to pair.

When the button on top lights solid blue, you are ready to go! Fire up your music and enjoy!

Once the DSB-150 is paired to a device, its Bluetooth address is stored in a ‘Paired List’ so it can hook up
to that device easily in the future. The DSB-150 is capable of storing up to 8 diff erent devices. Once that
limit is exceeded, the oldest device is cleared so that a new one can be stored.

After the fi rst pairing, the DSB-150 will automatically connect to your device when it is in range. The
button on top of the DSB-150 will light solid blue to indicate the system is ready to stream music from
your connected device. If a song is already playing through the device, the DSB-150 will start playing.

Note: If the Bluetooth button is lit, but nothing is heard:
1 Check the device to make sure a selection is playing. Make sure your music is not paused.
2 Check the device and the DSB-150 to make sure their volume levels are up and MUTE is not

enabled on either of them.

The DSB-150 will stay in pairing mode for up to 5 minutes, searching for a Bluetooth device (which must
also be in pairing mode). If it does not fi nd a device, the Bluetooth button will light red to indicate that it
was not able to pair. To try pairing again, press and release the

Connecting Headphones

Connect the headphone plug to the 3.5mm jack beside the symbol. This turns off the DSB-150
internal speakers. If your headphones have a larger 1/4-inch plug you will need an adapter, available at
many retailers.

Auxiliary Input

Press the button on the top or on the remote control. The button on
the top will light blue.

The DSB-150 can accept an analog signal from a wide range of sources—
from CD players to MP3 players, and even older legacy devices. You’ll need
a cable with a standard 3.5mm stereo mini plug to connect between the
source and the auxiliary input on the left side of the system.

Note: The analog output signals from some sources can be fairly strong. If the volume level of the
source device is turned up too high, it could overload the inputs of the DSB-150. This is unlikely to cause
damage, but can cause distorted sound. Initially, set the volume of the source to a medium – low level,
then turn it up as needed. If you hear distortion, turn down the device’s volume control.

Wall Mounting the DSB-150

The DSB-150 can be wall mounted using the
keyhole openings on the back of the system.
Install two M5 or equivalent screws in the wall.
They must be exactly 3
level with each other. Leave about

15

/16” (100mm) apart, and

3

/16” (5mm)
of the screw shaft exposed so the head of the
screw can engage the keyhole opening. Carefully
position the DSB-150 keyhole openings over the
screw head and set it in place. Be sure the cabinet
is fi rmly mounted on the screw heads before you
let go of the system.
