the instruction manual of your stereo (pre-)amplifier/receiver). The line output connector(s) of
your stereo (pre-)amplifier/receiver must be connected to the LINE INPUT connectors (L+R) of
the subwoofer via one or two RCA cables (sold separately).
4.2 SURROUND SOUND CONNECTIONS
4.2.1 LINE INPUT
Use the LINE INPUT connectors L or R if you want to adjust the subwoofer frequency output
using the DALI SUB C-8 D crossover control.
To use this option, connect the subwoofer output connector(s) of your surround sound (pre-)
amplifier/receiver with the LINE INPUT connectors on the subwoofer using an RCA cable (sold
separately). If the surround sound (pre-)amplifier/receiver has only one subwoofer output
connector, connect it to the LINE INPUT L connector (white) of the subwoofer using an RCA cable.
Please refer to chapter "5.0 Installing and Adjusting" for instructions on how to make the adjustments.
4.2.2 LFE INPUT
Use the LFE input connector (black), if you want to adjust the subwoofer output from your
surround sound (pre-) amplifier/receiver. When the LFE input connector is used, the built-in
crossovers are bypassed and the crossover control will not be functioning.
To use this option, connect the surround sound (pre-) amplifier/receiver subwoofer output to the
LFE input connector on the DALI SUB C-8 D with an RCA cable (sold separately).
Please refer to the instruction manual of your surround sound (pre-) amplifier/receiver on how
to adjust the crossover settings.
4.3 USING TWO DALI SUB C-8 D SUBWOOFERS
In most cases you will achieve excellent results with one DALI SUB C-8 D. Use of two subwoofers
is possible as a no-compromise stereo solution, or for reproduction of very powerful sound
pressures in a stereo or surround setup in larger rooms.
The connections are basically the same as stated in previous chapters, but for stereo setup
you should only connect the left channel output connector of your stereo or surround (pre-)
amplifier/receiver to the LINE INPUT L connector on the DALI SUB C-8 D placed to the left in your
room. In a similar way you should connect the right channel output connector of your stereo or
surround (pre-) amplifier/receiver to the LINE INPUT R connector on the DALI SUB C-8 D placed
to the right in your room.
For a surround setup, split the output signal from your surround sound (pre-) amplifier/receiver
using a RCA splitter (sold separately) and connect the two outputs. In all other respects, follow
the instructions above - but use separate channels. Please consult your authorised DALI dealer
if you have further questions.
5.0 INSTALLING AND ADJuSTING
Start by checking that the voltage of your mains output corresponds to the indication on the
back of your DALI SUB C-8 D.
