If you remove your soundbar from the country of
original sale, be certain that AC power supplied
in any subsequent location is suitable before con-
necting and operating the soundbar. Substantially
impaired performance or severe damage may
occur to the soundbar if operation is attempted
from an incorrect AC power source.
SIGNAL CONNECTION
When utilizing the soundbar to reproduce audio,
a television's audio output should be defeated.
Some televisions will allow you to turn off the
internal speaker via the television's menu system.
Other televisions may require you to turn the tele-
vision's volume to "zero" or "mute".
Additionally, if you're connecting your television
audio output using a HDMI or Digital Optical
connection, your television may require you to
activate the output and configure it to 5.1 surround
sound. Please refer to your television's manual.
Connections are made at the signal input section
on the rear electronics panel of the soundbar.
Your soundbar features seven wired inputs:
• 3 x HDMI inputs (audio and video)
• 2 x Digital Optical inputs (audio only)
• 2 x Left/Right Analog (RCA) inputs (audio only)
Please note, if your soundbar is being used in

an on-wall installation you may find it helpful to
use 90° RCA adapters, 90° HDMI adapters, and/
or low-profile HDMI cables when making signal
connections.
When connecting your system, there are any
variety of configurations that will work, and these
methods will vary based on user preference.
Some users will choose to route all sources
(such as DVD player, cable box, game console,
media streamer, etc.) to their television via an
HDMI, Digital Optical, or Left/Right Analog (RCA)
connection and use the television to switch
between audio/video sources. The advantage of
this connection method is that only one audio
cable (either HDMI, Digital Optical, or Left/Right
Analog (RCA) needs to connect between the
television and the soundbar—and changing the
input on your television will change the audio
signal being sent to the soundbar (without having
to change the input setting on the soundbar itself).
Please note: Many televisions are not capable of
passing multi-channel encoded audio signals,
as a result they will down-mix these signals to a
2-channel stereo mix before sending them to the
television's HDMI, Digital Optical, or RCA output.
We recommend running cables directly from
the source components to the soundbar and
