INTRODUCTION

Intro

The Dynamic Fusion Series by Better Music Builder are high performance speakers featuring Dynamic Fusion Technology

™.

The Dynamic Fusion Series are developed with the latest computer stimulation design and manufacturing technology. It scores high in quality, clarity and reliability with its unique LF and HF extension technology. The LF unit is manufactured with non-linear fabric paper cone to provide waterproof feature, while the HF unit is manufactured with high temperature treated magnalium diaphragm, voice coil with copper cladding aluminum wire, and compression cavity designed with linear phase technology. Its featured magnetic circuit tweeter generates high magnetic energy, low distortion, excellent ventilation function and high strength plywood that can absorb the unwanted noise for superior performance.

These heavy duty speakers are made with solid dense plywood with a durable advanced environmental protection polyurethane-based painting. They are armored with strong materials that are tough enough to withstand even harsh conditions and weather. Furthermore their strong design helps reduce interference and therefore enhances the quality of the sound. Because of its excellent performance and durability, the Dynamic Fusion Series are great for commercial and outdoor uses.

The DFS-112 SUB 2.1 and the DFS-115 SUB 2.1 are created to bring you simplicity and convenience. They are loaded with everything you needed to get started. These speakers are “powered,” which means they have amplifiers already built-in. Being a powered speaker, each model has the power to drive two other external speakers for a combined maximum power of 800 Watts (500W + 150W + 150W).

Another one of its convenient features is the included two dedicated microphone inputs for vocal and musical instruments along with its own volume control.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT

REMOVE COVER (OR BACK) NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS

INSIDE REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL

CAUTIONS FOR INSTALLATION

POWER SUPPLY / POWER CORD

• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the device.

The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the

device.

• Use only the included power cord.

• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as

heaters or radiators, and do not excessively bend or

otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on it, or

place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip

over, or roll anything over it.

• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the device is

not to be used for extended periods of time, or during

electrical storms.

• When removing the electric plug from the device or an

outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling

by the cord can damage it.

DO NOT OPEN

• Do not open the device or attempt to disassemble the

internal parts or modify them in any way. The device

contains no user-serviceable parts. If it should appear to

be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have

it inspected by qualified Better Music Builder service

personnel.

WATER WARNING

• Do not expose the device to rain, use it near water or in

damp or wet conditions, or place containers on it

containing liquids which might spill into an openings.

• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.

ABNORMALITY

• If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged,

or if there is a sudden loss of sound during use of the

device, or if any unusual smells or smoke should appear to

be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch,

disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the

device inspected by qualified Better Music Builder service

personnel.

• If this device should be dropped or damaged, immediately

turn off the power switch, disconnect the electric plug from

the outlet, and have the device inspected by qualified

Better Music Builder service personnel.

LOCATION

• Always consult qualified Better Music Builder service

personnel if the device installation requires construction

work, and make sure to observe the following precautions.

• Choose mounting hardware and an installation location

that can support the weight of the device.

• Avoid locations that are exposed to constant vibration.

NO GOOD

• Inspect the device periodically.

• When transporting or moving the device, always use two

or more person. Attempting to lift the device by yourself

may damage your back, result in other injury, or cause

damage to the device itself.

• Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.

• Do not use the device in a confined, poorly-ventilated

location. If this device is to be used in a small space

other than an EIA-standard rack, make sure that there is

adequate space between the device and surrounding

walls or other devices: at least 30cm at the sides, 30cm

behind and 30cm above. Inadequate ventilation can

result in overheating, possibly causing damage to the

device(s), or even fire.

4

• Do not use the speaker’s handles for suspended installation.

Doing so can result in damage or injury.

• Do no expose the device to excessive dust or vibrations,

or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a

heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility

of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal

components.

• Do not place the device in an unstable position where it

might accidentally fall over.

The speakers have coded terminals that accept a variety or wire connectors.

To ensure proper polarity, connect each + terminal on the back of the amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each speaker. Connect the – (black) terminals in a similar way. See the owner’s guides that were included with your amplifier, receiver and television to confirm connection procedures.

CONNECTIONS

• Before connecting the device to other devices, turn off the

power for all devices. Before turning the power on or off

for all devices, set all volume levels to minimum.

CAUTION

IMPORTANT: Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to – or – to +) when making connections. Doing so will cause poor imaging and diminished bass response.

ADJUSTING

Check the speakers for playback, first by setting the system volume control to a minimum level, and then by applying power to your audio system. Play a favorite music or video segment and increase the system volume control to a comfortable level.

• When turning on the AC power in your audio system,

always turn on the device LAST, to avoid speaker damage.

When turning the power off, the device should be turned

off FIRST for the same reason.

• Do not insert your fingers or hands in any gaps or

openings on the device (ports, etc.).

• Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic,

metal, etc.) into any gaps or openings on the device

(ports, etc.). If this happens, turn off the power immediately

and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then

have the device inspected by qualified Better Music

Builder service personnel.

• Do not use the device for a long period of time at a high

or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause

permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing

loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.

• Do not operate the device if the sound is distorting.

Prolonged use in this condition could cause overheating

and result in fire.

• Do not rest your weight on the device or place heavy

objects on it, and avoid using excessive force on the

buttons, switches or connectors.

GETTING STARTED

WIRING

You should hear balanced audio reproduction across the entire frequency spectrum. If not, check all wiring connections or consult the authorized dealer from whom you purchased the system for more help.

The amount of bass you hear and the stereo-image quality will be affected by a number of different factors, including the room’s size and shape, the construction materials used to build the room, the listener’s position relative to the speakers, and the position of the speakers in the room.

Listen to a variety of music selections and note the bass level.

If there is too much bass, move the speakers away from nearby walls. Conversely, if you place the speakers closer to the walls, there will be more bass output.

CARING

Each enclosure has a finish that does not require any routine maintenance. When needed, use a soft cloth to remove any fingerprints or dust from the enclosure or grille.

IMPORTANT: Make sure all equipments are turned off before making any connections.

For speaker connections, use a high-quality speaker wire with polarity coding. The side of the wire with a ridge or other coding is usually considered positive polarity.

If desired, consult Better Music Builder technical support for speaker wire and connection options.

EXAMPLE OF SPEAKON CONNECTOR

There are two groups on the speakon connectors: Group 1

(+1, –1) and Group 2 (+2, –2) as indicated in the diagram. In order to use it, your speaker must have multi-functions (i.e. enable two sources of signal for input). If your speaker does not have multi-functions, it would not work with the Group 2 for connection. Please refer to the following diagram for connection.

DYNAMIC FUSION SYSTEM OPERATES WITH 5-D PRO AUDIO (LARGE FORMAT)

Better Music Builder has a DX-6000 G2 audio/video effect processor that can provide five divisions (5-D) pro audio for large format use.

The DX-6000 G2 processor needs to operate with three powered amplifiers (i.e. one powered amplifier to drive two center vocal monitor speakers in parallel, another powered amplifier to drive Group-A speakers for high and mid range frequency, and third powered amplifier to drive Group-B speakers for full range frequency).

DX-6000 G2 provides low frequency line out to one or two powered subwoofers. The whole concept borrows the idea of a 5-channel home theater to produce a live sound effect in our system. You can use this system for public and commercial use. Better Music Builder have three different models of powered amplifiers to operate with the Dynamic Fusion System.

For installation, we highly recommend you hiring a professional audio contractor to do the job for safety purpose.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Troubleshooting

1. SYMPTOM: NO SOUNDS COMING OUT FROM THE

SPEAKERS

Probable causes:

1. The A/C power of the speaker is turned off.

2. Wrong A/C power selection (i.e. 110V~ 220V).

Remedy:

A. Turn on the A/C power of the speaker.

B. Make sure the receiver or amplifier is on and the source is playing.

C. Check all wires and connections between receivers, amplifiers and speakers. Make sure all wires are connected, none of the speaker wires are frayed, cut or punctured, and that no wires are touching each other.

D. Review proper operation of your receiver or amplifier.

E. Choose the right A/C power.

2. SYMPTOM: NO SOUNDS COMING OUT FROM ONLY

ONE SPEAKER

Probable cause:

The A/C power of the speaker is turned off.

Remedy:

A. Check the "Balance" control on your receiver or amplifier.

B. Check all wires and connections between receiver, amplifier and speaker. Make sure all wires are connected, none of the speaker wires are frayed, cut or punctured, and that no wires are touching each other.

C. Turn off all electronics and switch the speaker in question with another speaker that is working correctly. Turn everything back on, and determine whether the problem is in the same place: i.e., the speaker that was working previously now has no sound and the speaker that was not working now sounds fine. If the problem is in the same place, the source of the problem is most likely with your receiver or amplifier, and you should consult the owner's manual for further information. If the problem is with the speaker, consult your dealer for further assistance, or visit our web site for technical support.

3. SYMPTOM: NOISES FROM THE SPEAKER.

Probable cause:

The A/C power cord of the speaker is not grounded.

Remedy:

Change a new magnet cord of the A/C power cord.

4. SYMPTOM: MICROPHONE VOLUME IS TOO LOW.

Probable causes:

A. The microphone is poorly connected to the speaker.

B. The volume on the speaker is too low.

Remedy:

A. Check the connection between the microphone and the speaker. Make sure that they are connected properly.

Condense microphone doesn't work with the speaker. You may need to change to a dynamic vocal microphone.

B. Turn the volume to an appropriate level. If the volume is still not high enough, you may need to upgrade your existing audio system to a system with much higher output.

5. SYMPTOM: SOUNDS LIKE DAZZ, DAZZ, DAZZ ........

COMING FROM THE SPEAKER.

Probable cause:

The speaker cable (with small gauges) is over 100 feet.

Remedy:

Change to a higher quality cable preferably 12 and 14 gauges.

6. SYMPTOM: TOO MUCH MICROPHONE FEEDBACK

FROM THE SPEAKER.

Probable cause:

Incorrect tremble and bass adjustments on the speaker.

Remedy:

Adjust the tremble and bass to an appropriate level to avoid microphone feedback.

7. SYMPTOM: NO SOUND FROM THE MAIN SPEAKERS

Probable cause:
