Features
2.4GHz digital wireless link provides crystal clear audio
signals.
Three-channel selection to avoid potential interference
in the environment.
Up to 115 feet (35m) operation distance between
transmitter and receiver (line of sight).
1 Install the Transmitter
1. Make sure your amplifier is off. Connect the
transmitter to your amplifier‘s speaker output
terminals with the provided 6-foot speaker cords,
matching polarities. Or connect your transmitter to
the amplifier’s RCA output ports with RCA cables (not
included).
2. Connect the supplied AC adapter (9V, 200mA) to the
DC IN 9V jack, then plug it into a standard household
outlet.
2 Install the Receiver
1. Connect the surround speakers to the receiver with
speaker wires, matching polarities.
2. Connect the supplied AC adapter (15V, 4A) to the
DC IN 15V jack, and then plug it into a standard
household outlet.
n Notes:
Make sure the exposed tips of each cord do not touch
each other, and make sure they are fully inserted into the
terminals.
This rear speaker kit is designed for connecting to your
amplifier surround speaker terminals only.
For speaker wires that have proprietary connectors, you may
strip the end of the wires to allow connection to the receiver.
However, check with the speaker manufacturer before doing
this, as it may void the warranty.
When the RCA cables are connected, audio input from the
speaker terminal will be disabled.
Unplug the AC adapters from the AC outlet before unplugging
it from the transmitter or receiver.
Use the supplied AC adapters only. Using an AC adapter not
designed for this product may cause damage.
3 Place the Transmitter and
Receiver
The transmitter and receiver must be placed within 100 feet
for proper operation. They can be placed horizontally on a
flat surface, vertically in the provided stands or mounted on
a wall, using the mounting holes on the bottom.

2. Adjust the receiver’s VOL +/- control
to balance the front and rear speaker
sound level. This step is only necessary
during first-time installation of the
speaker kit with your system.
3. After balance setup, simply use the
volume control on your amplifier to adjust speaker
volume during playback.
Change the Channel
If you experience audio dropouts or
interference during use, change the channel
on the transmitter with the Channel Switch.
The receiver’s channel will automatically
“hop” to the new transmitter settings.
Optimize Your Surround Sound
There is a small delay between the transmitter and
receiver. Many A/V receivers let you adjust the amount
of delay between the front and rear speakers in your
surround system. To optimize your system when tuning
your speaker setup, we recommend you shorten the rear
speaker delay response by around 20 milliseconds.
