4.3 Connection of Cables/Selection of Cables
your choice of cables is a crucial element in your installation. Be aware that replacing cables after
installation is a difficult task. therefore, select quality cables from the beginning. Please consult
your authorized DALI dealer for further advice on which cable to select.
when connecting the cable to the loudspeaker and the amplifier, it is important that the loudspeaker
is connected in correct phase. the red (+) loudspeaker terminal must be connected to the red (+)
amplifier terminal. the black (-) loudspeaker terminal must be connected to the black (-) amplifier
terminal. If the loudspeakers are not connected in correct phase, the soundstage will typically be
diffuse and the bass will be weak.
to insert the cable end into the spring loaded terminals of the speaker, remove cable insulation so
that approx. ½” / 12 mm of bare wire is exposed. Press the top of the terminal down and insert the
bare wire into the opening. when the wire is fully in place with no loose strands exposed, release
the terminal (see figure 6).

the enclosed cut-out template (see figure 7) can be used to initially visualize how your speakers
should be mounted and for marking where the cut-out should be made. tape the template at
the preferred mounting position, so that you can mark the necessary opening. the minimum
mounting depth for the DALI PHANtOM H-50 and H-60 is 95 mm / 3.7”, for the DALI PHANtOM
H-80 it is 106 mm / 4.2” and for the DALI PHANtOM H-120 it is 168 mm / 6.7”.

Please study and follow the safety guidelines found in chapter 2.0 of this manual! the
DALI PHANtOM H Series must be installed by a trained professional to ensure that all safety
requirements are met and to prevent the speaker from falling.
NOtE: Earth Quake Safety Hook:
DALI PHANtOM H Series is equipped with an earth quake safety hook. to prevent injury or damage
from a fall, a non-elastic steel wire should be attached safely by a trained professional. the wire
must attach the speaker’s earth quake safety hook to a solid support in the house (ceiling beam,
wall stud, etc.). the wire must be covered with plastic material to avoid the risk for electrical short-
circuits and to prevent speaker damages, scratches etc.
the following tools and items are necessary for proper installation:
•
tape measure
•
Pencil and saw or knife
•
3 mm Allen wrench/bit
•
Hand bit screwdriver (optional)
•
tape
•
cut-out template
when the correct placement has been found, tape the mounting template to the surface. Outline
the cut-out area with a pencil.
