Product Introduction The iui DESIGN UD‐1404 “IMMERSE” multi‐room 2.1 sound bar is a breakthrough in providing high performance audio to your TV and also the whole home. You’re in control – you can use sound bar with other iui DESIGN Wi‐Fi speakers. And the configuration options are almost limitless. Historically, if you wanted to listen to music from your TV or digital device, you could connect to your speaker with a 3.5mm audio cable, or Bluetooth. But IMMERSE provides you breakthrough flexibility. While it connects via an audio cable and Bluetooth, it also can connect by Wi‐Fi and wired Ethernet. And by using Wi‐Fi or wired Ethernet, you can create a whole home audio system, so that you have music distributed throughout your home. To get the best experience from IMMERSE, it’s good to understand some basics. First and foremost, you can simply connect the product by using the 3.5mm audio line in or Bluetooth if you want to just connect a TV to the sound bar. But to play your music to the sound bar and also to other Wi‐Fi speakers, you need to take a few additional steps. But, let’s first walk through the basics… Since IMMERSE is a very high‐performance sound bar with amazing technology capability, you have options to meet your lifestyle. First, you need to decide how to connect your TV and other digital devices to the product, and what the trade‐offs are for each type of connection. 3.5mm Audio Line‐in: If you use the 3.5mm stereo audio line in, you can simply connect your audio source to IMMERSE, and you can enjoy high performance audio. Of course, you will be limited to one IMMERSE sound bar and you have to remain physically connected. Bluetooth: Bluetooth is a simple wireless connection to connect your digital source to your IMMERSE. Bluetooth technology only connects from one source (your TV or other digital source, like a PC or Smartphone) to one speaker, such as IMMERSE sound bar. And Bluetooth has lower sound performance than a wired 3.5mm audio connection, due to compression of the signal during wireless transmission. Its range is also limited, typically to one room. Wi‐Fi: Using Wi‐Fi, you can connect your Wi‐Fi digital source (such as your TV, PC, Mac, tablet, smartphone, etc) to the IMMERSE sound bar or more Wi‐Fi speakers. The benefit of Wi‐Fi over Bluetooth is important – Wi‐Fi allows you to stream one source to IMMERSE sound bar and other iui DESIGN Wi‐Fi speakers all over your house (because Wi‐Fi typically has longer range), and the bandwidth of Wi‐Fi is much higher than Bluetooth, so the quality of the sound performance is essentially the same as a 3.5mm wired audio connection. Of course, Wi‐Fi performance in the home is influenced by many factors – the quality of your wireless router, how many people are connected to the router and downloading at the same time, the number of routers that are active (which is really important in high‐density housing such as apartment buildings). In general, we recommend a maximum of one IMMERSE and two iui DESIGN Wi‐Fi speakers connected to your router. More is possible if you take certain technical steps to improve your bandwidth – but that discussion is beyond the scope of this manual. And Wi‐Fi performance is impacted by the capability of your Wi‐Fi enable digital device – for example, an iOS based product such as an iPhone can only reliably connect to one Wi‐Fi device at a time. But if you use iTunes on your PC or Mac, you can connect to multiple Wi‐Fi speakers. You can also use Android smartphones, tablets and PC’s to connect using a standard known as DLNA, and connects to multiple Wi‐Fi speakers. Wired Ethernet: Wired Ethernet, where the IMMERSE is connected to your router or Ethernet switch with an Ethernet cable will give you the best performance. You can typically connect many more than three Wi‐Fi speakers. Ultimately, there is a limitation of your router or Ethernet switch, but for most standard residential users this is not a factor. And wired Ethernet will give you the audio performance of a 3.5mm wired connection. So the first decision you will have to make is how you want to connect to IMMERSE. Once you make that decision, then you can follow the easy steps in this manual to start enjoying your music. If you are using an iPhone or /and Android device, we have an app that makes it easy to set‐up your IMMERSE. You can use the app to connect the IMMERSE to your home network, you can name it (Living Room, Bedroom, Den), and you can assign IMMERSE and other iui DESIGN Wi‐Fi speakers to groups, so that you can play your music to one, some or all Wi‐Fi speakers and sound bar. The IMMERSE application also updates the software on your IMMERSE sound bar, keeping it current and up to date. The IMMERSE application does not take the place of your music player software, such as iTunes, Windows Media Player or streaming music service applications such as Pandora. The application lets you configure your IMMERSE speakers, and then you use your favorite applications to select and play music.
