Nastavení a instalace

Proper installation is crucial for the performance and safety of your driver. It is recommended that installation be performed by individuals with experience in audio system setup.

Design krytu:

• The ND90-4 is designed for compact enclosures. Consult speaker design software or resources for optimal enclosure volume and porting (if applicable) to match your desired frequency response.
• Ensure the enclosure is rigid and sealed properly to prevent air leaks, which can degrade sound quality.

Montáž:

• The driver features a flush mount design. Cut a circular opening in your enclosure that matches the driver's mounting diameter.
• Secure the driver using appropriate screws through the mounting holes on the frame. Do not overtighten, as this can warp the frame or damage the driver.
• Ensure a good seal between the driver frame and the enclosure baffle using a gasket or sealant if necessary.

Zapojení:

• Connect speaker wires to the terminals on the back of the driver. The positive (+) terminal is typically marked with a red dot or a plus sign, and the negative (-) terminal with a black dot or a minus sign.
• Maintain correct polarity throughout your audio system (positive to positive, negative to negative) to ensure all drivers move in phase. Incorrect polarity can lead to poor bass response and imaging.
• Use appropriate gauge speaker wire for your amplifier's power output and cable length to minimize power loss.

Návod k obsluze

Once installed, the ND90-4 driver operates as part of your audio system. Follow these general guidelines for optimal performance:

• AmpPárování záchranáře: Ujistěte se, že vaše amplifier's power output is within the recommended range for the driver to prevent damage from underpowering (clipping) or overpowering.
• Nastavení přechodu: If using a crossover, set it appropriately to direct the correct frequency range to the full-range driver. While it is a full-range driver, a high-pass filter can protect it from extreme low frequencies, especially at high volumes.
• Ovládání hlasitosti: Avoid operating the system at excessively high volumes for extended periods, which can cause distortion and potential driver damage. Listen for signs of distortion and reduce volume if heard.
• Doba záběhu: New drivers may require a break-in period of several hours of moderate use to achieve their full performance potential.

Údržba

The Dayton Audio ND90-4 driver requires minimal maintenance. Adhere to the following for long-term reliability:

• Čištění: Gently wipe the cone and surround with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using liquids or harsh chemicals, which can damage the cone material or surround.
• Podmínky prostředí: Keep the driver away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity. These conditions can degrade materials over time.
• Fyzická ochrana: Protect the driver from physical impact or punctures, especially the cone and dust cap, which are delicate.

Odstraňování problémů

If you encounter issues with your ND90-4 driver, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Žádný zvuk:
  • Zkontrolujte všechna zapojení od amplifier to the driver for secure contact and correct polarity.
  • Ověřte, že amplifier je zapnutý a funguje správně.
  • Ensure the audio source is active and sending a signal.
• Zkreslený zvuk:
  • Snižte hlasitost. Ke zkreslení často dochází, když... amplifier or driver is overdriven.
  • Zkontrolujte, zda nejsou uvolněné spoje nebo poškozený kabel reproduktoru.
  • Inspect the driver cone and surround for any physical damage.
  • Review crossover settings if applicable; incorrect settings can cause distortion.
• Slabé basy:
  • Confirm correct wiring polarity for all drivers in the system. Out-of-phase drivers will cancel bass frequencies.
  • Ensure the enclosure is properly sealed and free of leaks.
  • Verify that the enclosure volume is appropriate for the driver.
• Přerušovaný zvuk:
  • Check for loose speaker wire connections at both the driver and amplifikátor končí.
  • Inspect speaker wire for breaks or frayed strands.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, contact Dayton Audio customer support for further assistance.
