Switching the inputs
Switching the inputs is not necessary with the DIALOG. All input signals are played automatically. You can, for example,
listen to TV sound while streaming music from your smartphone at the same time. Be careful not to accidentally play
multiple sources at the same time.
The easiest way to integrate the DIALOG into your home network is to use a Ethernet connection with
your network. Use the Ethernet connection on the back of the device. Your DIALOG will appear as a UPnP/
DLNA and AirPlay® speaker in your network after a few seconds.
If you want to connect the DIALOG wirelessly to your own network, you can do this with the “AirLino®“-App:
1. Install the AirLino® app, available for download from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
Note: Alternatively, a conguration program for Windows can also be downloaded and installed at https://www.
lintech.de/support/downloads/wlan-musikempfaenger/ for conguration via a computer.
2. Enable WiFi on your device
3. Search for the WiFi network “DIALOG“ and connect to it
Note: If your DIALOG is already integrated in your home network, you need to connect to your home network to
change the settings.
4. Open the AirLino® app, nd your device and connect to it.
5. Select your home network and enter the correct WiFi password. The AirLino® app will now try to connect your
DIALOG to your home network.
Note: If the device is not ready after 60 seconds, an error might have occurred. Please check if you have entered
the correct network password and follow the previous steps again. In some cases it is useful to turn the DIALOG
off for about 10 seconds and go through the steps again.
6. After the successful setup your DIALOG system swill be visible on your network. You can then see the device in
the audio streaming devices.
7. Enjoy the music through your DIALOG system.
Note: Please make sure that the WiFi connection and the signal are stable and strong enough to manage high quality
audio signals in your home network. Low quality WiFi routers might cause problems. Please contact a wireless network
specialist if problems occur.

With DIALOG you can stream music from a variety of sources wirelessly. For this you need a wireless connection from
your audio source (smartphone, tablet, etc.) to the DIALOG. The built-in Bluetooth, AirPlay® and UPnP/DLNA audioreceiving components start automatically and are ready after a short while. Then connect to your smartphone, laptop,
iPod touch, or similar device as follows:
Establish Bluetooth connection
1. Activate Bluetooth in the settings of your audio source (e.g. smartphone, tablet)
2. Search for “DIALOG“
3. Connect with “DIALOG“ like any other Bluetooth device
4. Make sure (in the settings of your audio source) that the audio signal is played via your Bluetooth connection
5. Enjoy the music through your DIALOG system
Note: When Bluetooth is activated once again, the device will automatically connect to the DIALOG as soon as the sound
system is within range.
Note: Not every device supports Blutooth apt-X. Therefore, the sound quality might differ.
Establish Apple AirPlay® connection
If your audio source supports Apple AirPlay® (for example, iPhone, iPad, iPod), you can stream your music
to DIALOG via AirPlay®.
1. Activate WiFi on your audio source
2. Search for the WiFi-network “DIALOG“ and connect to it. The default password for the initial connection is
“logaudio“.
Note: If your DIALOG is already integrated in your home network (see “Integrate DIALOG into your home network“),
you must connect to your home network.
3. Now select “DIALOG“ on the list of all available AirPlay® devices on your audio source
Note: Make sure that the audio signal is played from your AirPlay® “DIALOG“ device.
4. Enjoy the music through your DIALOG system
Establish UPnP/DLNA connection
If your audio source supports UPnP/DLNA, you can stream your music to your DIALOG via UPnP/DLNA like to every
other UPnP/DLNA speaker.
1. Activate WiFi on your audio source
2. Search for the WiFi-network “DIALOG“ and connect to it.
Note: If your DIALOG is already integrated in your home network (see “Integrate DIALOG into your home network“),
you must connect to your home network.
3. Please select on your audio source “DIALOG“ as target device in your streaming application.
Note: You can use e.g. BubbleUPnP®-App which can be downloaded on the Apple App Store or Google Play Store
With AirPlay, UPnP/DLNA and Bluetooth apt-X, you can use a variety of other streaming services with your DIALOG
system. For example, Spotify Connect, TIDAL, Qobuz, Radio via TuneIn and many more are available. The DIALOG is
recognized as a stand-alone WiFi speaker, so the smartphone only serves as a remote control. The music les are
downloaded directly from the DIALOG from the internet. Installation instructions for this can be found on the websites
of the respective providers.
Network Attached Storage (NAS)
With a network attached storage (NAS) supporting AirPlay or UPnP/DLNA, the stored music les can be streamed directly
from the hard drive to the DIALOG system. Thus, your smartphone is only used as a remote control. The instructions for
integrating such a network hard disk can be found on the website of the respective manufacturer.
Volume adjustment with remote control
The volume of the DIALOG can be adjusted with the supplied infrared remote control.
Vol. up +
Adjust the volume
If you want to change the volume, press the “Vol. up +“ or “Vol. down –“ key. If you hold
down one of these buttons, the volume changes continuously.
Note: Be sure to point the remote at the left DIALOG speaker as soon as you press a key.
Mute
If you press the “Mute“ button you can mute the DIALOG system or deactivate the mute function.
Note: Be sure to point the remote at the left DIALOG speaker as soon as you press a key.
At factory settings, the remote control is not paired with the DIALOG. If you have several remote controls of the same
type, pairing is useful to avoid conicts.
1. Use a pen or a straightened paper clip to press the pairing button on the back of the DIALOG
2. The device is now in pairing mode for 30 seconds
3. Now press any key on the desired remote control (e.g. the “Mute“-key)
4. The device is now paired with this remote control and accepts only commands from this remote control
Note: If the DIALOG does not receive any command from a remote control during the 30 seconds it is in pairing mode,
the pairing is canceled and the DIALOG accepts commands from any remote control of the same type.
Wake-up function
In case of inactivity, the DIALOG automatically activates the standby mode after a while to avoid unnecessary power
consumption. The automatic wake-up functionality automatically reactivates the DIALOG when there is an incoming
audio signal via Bluetooth, AirPlay® or UPnP/DLNA. Accordingly, the loudspeakers can remain permanently connected
to the power connection without affecting the energy consumption or the lifetime of the product.
Sound optimization
In order to achieve an optimal sound experience, it is advisable to observe the following points:
- Place your DIALOG system on the wall or near a wall. Avoid placing the device in the middle of the room, as certain
frequencies are not sufciently reproduced by the missing wall surface.
- Your DIALOG system offers a unique, lossless music reproduction. It is therefore advisable to play high-resolution
music les or uncompressed formats (such as WAV or Apple Lossless).
- Make sure your room has adequate acoustic damping. Too much reverb negatively affects the music signal.
Curtains, upholstered furniture or carpets can support good room acoustics and contribute to a pleasant damping.
- If possible, use the digital audio input of the DIALOG when connecting a third party device. The digital input provides
a better sound quality than analog inputs.
Note: There are no rules that apply to all environments. Nevertheless, it is advisable to consider the above points.
Please observe the safety instructions when using the DIALOG, otherwise warranty claims may expire.
- Do not expose to rain or moisture. There is a risk of re and the risk of damage.
- Do not use near liquids (bathtub, etc.).
- Do not place burning objects (candles, etc.) next to or on the speaker.
- Do not place near heat sources.
- Use only with original manufacturer accessories.
- Do not connect the speaker during thunderstorms.
Hearing damage
The DIALOG can reach a sound pressure level higher than 90dB (SPL), which could cause hearing loss. To avoid hearing
damage, you should therefore only use the DIALOG system for a short time at high volume. As a precaution, set an
appropriate volume. The higher the volume, the faster it can cause hearing damage.
Repair
The DIALOG must not be unscrewed or disassembled. Unauthorized opening of the housing is a risk of
electrical shock. All necessary repairs are to be carried out exclusively by a service partner or manufacturer,
otherwise the guarantee and warranty claim expires.
Maintenance
The speakers are maintenance-free. Clean the surface only with a soft dry to slightly moist cloth or a feather duster.
Do not use scouring powder, alcohol, gasoline, polish, wax or other similar liquids. Do not set up the DIALOG in a humid
environment. Frequent temperature changes, humidity and excessive sunlight will damage the speaker and may alter
its appearance. If the speaker is destroyed by improper use, contact the manufacturer and nd out about repair options.
The speaker membrane should not be touched.
Warranty
The warranty for this product complies with the legal requirements at the time of purchase. In addition, LOG Audio offers
a warranty of 3 years from the date of purchase. Changes to the device will void the warranty and the manufacturer‘s
warranty.
Never dispose of the DIALOG with normal household waste. It is strongly recommended to take the product
to an ofcial waste collection point. Be aware of local regulations for separate collection of electrical and
electronic equipment and follow it diligently. Proper disposal of old products helps to prevent negative
environmental and health effects.
