Correct, tight connections to your ampliﬁ er are

extremely important for your listening experience.

Before connecting cables or changing any con-

nections, ALWAYS turn off your ampliﬁ er.

Always use cables of the same type and length

for left and right channels. We recommend using

special speaker cables from DALI, available from

your dealer.

Connection in correct phase is a detail that is

often ignored. The red (+) terminal of the ampliﬁ er

must be connected to the red (+) terminal of the

loudspeaker. The black (-) terminal of the ampliﬁ er

must be connected to the black (-) terminal of the

loudspeaker (Figure 13).

For the optimal listening experience, the right loud-

speaker (as seen from the listening position) must

be connected to the ampliﬁ er output terminals

marked “R” or “Right.” The left loudspeaker must

be connected to the ampliﬁ er output terminals

marked “L” or “Left.” Even a single loudspeaker

connected out-of-phase in a stereo or surround

installation will make the bass weaker and the

stereo image unfocused.

If you are using DALI IKON in a surround system,

follow the instructions included with your sur-

round ampliﬁ er.

Make sure that the conductors are tightly gripped

by the terminals with no loose wires that could

cause a short circuit and damage the ampliﬁ er

(Figure 14).

The DALI IKON terminals are well-suited to plugs.

We recommend DALI Connect Banana Plugs.
