9.7 VOLUME ADJUSTMENT

On the rear of the subwoofer you can increase or reduce the volume by turning the VOLUME

control clockwise or counter clockwise. The volume should be adjusted so that the bass matches

the level of your main speakers. You should be able to appreciate your subwoofer’s contribution

to the overall sound without it ever being overpowering. Bass must be tight and accurate so that

the subwoofer reproduces the exact amount of bass present in the music/soundtrack; no more no

less. When installing the DALI IKON SUB in a surround sound system, we recommend selecting

a ﬁxed level on the sub and adjusting the subwoofer output using the surround (pre-) ampliﬁer’s/

receiver’s setup function.

If bass levels are set too high, distortion will reduce the quality of your listening experience.

Remember that you can boost the bass level by selecting a physical position close to the wall or

even better – in a corner (see chapter “9.1 Positioning”).

9.8 CROSSOVER FREQUENCY ADJUSTMENT

Once you have set the phase and the volume level, you need to adjust the overlap between the

main speakers and the DALI IKON SUB.

9.8.1 USING LINE INPUT

The crossover frequency adjustment on the subwoofer is only possible when using the

LINE INPUT(S).

On the rear of the subwoofer, adjust the CROSSOVER control upwards until you can hear the bass

is even with no drop-outs (Frequency range 50-130 Hz). Smaller speakers typically require a

higher crossover point, whereas larger speakers will accept a lower crossover point. For example

when using your DALI IKON SUB together with DALI IKON 2, we recommend a crossover point of

approximately 90 Hz (12 o’clock position).

After having adjusted the crossover frequency you may have to re-adjust the volume to

optimise performance.

9.8.2 USING LFE INPUT

When using your DALI IKON SUB together with DALI IKON 1 or similar speakers we recommend

a crossover point of 100 Hz. This must be entered in the menu system of your (pre-) ampliﬁer/

receiver. You might need to enter the ‘small’ setting when selecting type of front speakers in the

AV receiver menu.

Using larger speakers (typically ﬂoor-standing front speakers) will allow you to choose a lower

crossover point, and to deﬁne your speakers as ‘large’ in the menu system.

If in doubt about the capacity of your speakers, we recommend setting the crossover point quite

high, deﬁning your speakers as small, and ﬁnally reducing the crossover point to the lowest

possible position while maintaining an even bass with no drop-outs.
