WELCOME

Thank you

Thank you for choosing a CineMate® 1 SR digital home theater speaker system for your

home. It delivers superb acoustic performance in a stylish package that will greatly
enhance your home theater experience.

Please play the DVD

Before you start following the step-by-step setup instructions in this guide, we

recommend playing the setup overview on the included DVD disc. This will show
you how easy it is to set up your new system.

To watch the setup overview, load the included DVD disc into a DVD player or a

home computer and select the setup section from the main menu.

Product overview

The CineMate 1 SR digital home theater speaker system takes the place of your

TV's built-in speakers. This is done by connecting your TV's audio output to the TV
audio input (TV Input) on the CineMate system (see figure below). In addition to the
connection from the TV, you can also connect up to two audio/video devices (sources)
directly to the CineMate system’s auxiliary inputs (AUX) to assure the best possible
sound quality from these sources.

AUX input connections

The AUX digital audio connections do not take the place of the audio connections from

a source to the TV.

• You will still need to ensure that all sources have both a video and an audio connection
to your TV, and that the audio output of your TV is connected to the TV Input on the
CineMate system.

• While a source is playing the CineMate system will continuously compare the AUX
input audio stream with the TV Input audio stream and automatically select the
highest-quality audio stream available.
