Once connected, the DM20 center channel speaker will operate as part of your home theater system. Ensure your AVR is properly configured to recognize the center channel speaker.

  • Cura della griglia: The acoustically transparent cloth grille can be carefully removed if needed for cleaning. Use a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment on a low setting to remove dust. Reattach the grille securely.
  • Ambiente: Avoid placing the speaker in direct sunlight, near heat sources, or in areas with high humidity. Ensure adequate ventilation around the speaker.

6. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

If you encounter issues with your DM20 speaker, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

    • Check all speaker wire connections at both the speaker and the AVR/amplificatore. Assicurarsi che siano ben saldi e correttamente collegati (positivo con positivo, negativo con negativo).
    • Verify that the AVR/amplifier sia acceso e impostato sulla sorgente di ingresso corretta.
    • Confirm that the center channel output is enabled and not muted in your AVR's settings.
  • Suono distorto o poco chiaro:
    • Check speaker wire connections for any loose strands that might be touching each other or the opposite terminal.
    • Reduce the volume level on your AVR/amplifier to see if distortion decreases.
    • Ensure the speaker is not placed too close to walls or corners, which can cause excessive bass or resonance.
    • Run your AVR's room correction calibration again.
  • Uneven Soundstage:
    • Confirm the speaker is centered relative to your viewing/listening position.
    • Check speaker level settings in your AVR to ensure the center channel is balanced with other speakers.
