Three equalizer presets on board the Canton DM 101 provide easy audio adjustments to optimally tailor the soundboard to the three most common setups. At the touch of a button, Canton optimizes for mounting a freestanding Canton DM 101 with a wall-mounted TV (EQ1), for mounting with a TV on a DM soundbar (EQ2), or for mounting a soundbar in a rack (EQ3). Bass, mids and treble can also be adjusted using the small remote control to optimize the sound to your liking.
Four thin 100mm woofers act as a subwoofer at the bottom of the cabinet. To provide stereo and surround sound, there are two 50mm mid-range drivers and a 19mm D’Appolito horizontal tweeter located on the left and right of the front panel.
The three-digit multifunction display lights up briefly each time a command is entered and allows you to control the front surround sound system. The display turns off during operation. To control the sound deck and TV with just one remote control, Canton DM 101 can learn the infrared code of the TV remote control. The 2.1 Virtual Surround system offers a lip-sync function, can reduce volume differences when dynamic range compression is activated, or improve speech intelligibility using the tone function.
The auto on/off switch detects the presence of signals on the optical or coaxial digital input and automatically starts the Canton sound deck once the source device is turned on. After turning off the source, the Canton DM 101 goes into standby mode after approximately 30 seconds. Canton DM 101 carries basic Dolby Digital and DTS decoders on board, and is acoustically configured as a triphonic. If the power or bass depth of the built-in subwoofer is not enough, you can connect an external subwoofer using the low-level output. Switching with the signal source is organized extremely simply: analog RCA, optical or coaxial inputs.
The Canton DM 101 soundbar stand has dimensions of 100 x 6.95 x 33 cm, and is designed to accommodate a large diagonal TV (weighing up to 40 kg). If you’re looking for a TV speaker with a stylish look and great sound, you should definitely check out the Canton DM 101. It’s easy to use, looks better than the competition, and has class-leading sound quality.
