My Dali zensor 3 initial impressions

Congrats Just make sure you keep the Z3 at least 1.5ft away from the wall. I think they recommend 2ft gap on their website.

I think the Z3 is recommended to be kept against the wall in the manual.
Will check in the manual tonight.

Congrats on the Dali's. I am sure you will enjoy them for a long time.

Zensor 3 is to be kept flat against the wall as per the manual.

I believe it simply means they can be placed against a wall. It does not mean that that is the ideal position.

I remember now, someone said the same thing few months. But you should try positioning the speaker and listen whichever gives the best sound.

Try different positions and see what pleases you. Simple.

I m using Zensor 1 as Wall mounted for surrounds, but I feel zensor 3 requires some space for good sounding.

Guys a quick question on the above pic.

I have two different amps, marantz for my vinyl setup and denon for my HT.

Both are connected to one common speaker, my Dali sensor 3.

In the pic, the banana plugs are for the marantz and below that the regular speaker connection is for my denon.

I will not play both amps together (obviously). Having said that, can I still keep both amps connected to the speaker or shud I remove the speaker wire from the speaker for the source I'm not using?

Thanks.

It's risky. Accidents do happen. By chance both Amps come on, there is going to smoke somewhere. You could do the plug swapping or invest in a switch. But having both Amps connected is not a good idea in my opinion.

You could use something like this Niles DPS1 Black (FG00003) Amplifier/Speaker A-B Selector | eBay

There is also a thread on this by an FM who built it.

Thanks tuff, but 15000 is a lot of money that I don't have. I guess I'll just plug and unplug the wires.

The safest would be to use banana plugs for both instead of what it is now. So regardless of what happens, only one set is connected.

 

[Deleted member 38504]

Thanks that was exactly what I was thinking. Play it safe. Cheers.

This is dangerous if by mistake both the amps turned on, amp and speakers will go. Better get a selector. there is a thread in diy section.

Do you see a difference in the sound signature between Marantz stereo and denon receiver?
