Getting Started
Home Network Basics
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 Denitive
Technology Wireless Collection is the Denitive Technology App, which sends
music information to each DTS Play-Fi enabled speaker or device.
For The Best Music Streaming 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 blocked by concrete, brick, or other walls. The
quality of your connection can be observed in the Denitive App by
the Wireless Strength icon.

Network and 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 W7 to
your network:

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 dedicated

Wi-Fi setup button (for 8 seconds), until you hear the second
set of tones.
