Connections

Method 1: Optical / Coaxial Connection

Use an optical cable (not included) or coaxial cable (included) to connect the soundbar’s 

OPTICAL / COAXIAL

 socket to the 

OPTICAL OUT / COAXIAL OUT

 socket of the external 

device. The simplest option is to connect your soundbar directly to your TV. If you connect 

the soundbar to another external device (e.g. Blu-Ray player), you will hear the sound from 

that device through the soundbar.
After the connection is completed,

1.  Press 

 on the unit or remote control to switch on the unit.

2.  Press 

SOURCE

 repeatedly to select 

OPTICAL

 or 

COAXIAL

 mode.

This section involves various methods of connecting the product to other external components. Ensure 

all audio connections of the unit are connected before connecting to the mains power socket. 

The unit may not be able to decode all digital audio formats from the input source. In this case, the unit 

will mute. This is NOT a defect. Ensure that the audio setting of the input source (e.g. TV, game console, 

DVD player, etc.) is set to 

PCM

 (Refer to the user manual of the input source device for its audio setting 

details) with Optical/Coaxial input.
