Polk Audio Omni SB1 Soundbar User Guide - Page 3

Unpacking your SB1 Please unpack the components carefully, removing the subwoofer first as indicated on the carton and then the sound bar. We recommend saving all cartons and packing materials in case you move, or should you need to ship your SB1. What's in the Box 1 2 3 7 4 5 6 1. Sound bar 2.

Remote control (battery included) System Requirements It all begins by building a wireless home network, preferably one with a high-speed Internet connection. Here's what you'll need to connect your SB1 to your network: • A Wireless Network connected to the internet with an 802.11g router or better*. • An Android device with version 2.2 operating system or newer OR an iOS device with version 6.0 operating system or newer. • The password for your wireless network (if required). *Router type is usually listed on the router, itself. Please call the Polk Preferred Services @ 1-800-638-7276 for further questions related to router type. For The Best DTS Play-Fi Experience To ensure your system is operating under the best environment possible, here are a few additional tips: • For the fastest streaming performance, especially when connecting to multiple speakers simultaneously, an 802.11n router or better is recommended. • Ensure the DTS Play-Fi device is within wireless reach of your router, or that the signal is not hindered by concrete, brick, or other dense walls. The quality of your connection can be observed in the Polk Omni App by the Wireless Strength icon. Hooking Up the SB1 to your TV Getting Started Your Home Network In general, Wi-Fi is the wireless streaming of data over a network. Here, Wi-Fi audio is the streaming of music throughout a home network by connecting multiple speakers and/or devices together. The controller for the Polk Omni Collection is the Polk Omni App, which sends music information to each DTS Play-Fi enabled speaker or device. OPT IN TV OPT OUT You likely have many sources for your audio signal: your TV, your DVD player or a cable/satellite box. The bar is able to accept audio from up to three different sources. The simplest approach is to connect the optical audio output from your TV to the optical input on the back of the SB1 bar. This connection will provide the highest quality audio regardless of whether you are watching TV or DVD. If your TV does not have an optical output, you can use the optical output from your DVD player or your cable/satellite box to connect directly to the optical input on the SB1 bar. 1. www.polkaudio.com 3
