Connecting Devices via AUX and Optical InputsConnecting Devices via AUX and Optical Inputs
Your Prime Wireless Speaker is equipped with multiple input connections that allow it to provide audio
playback for a wide array of devices, including: computers, TVs, AV receivers, Blu-ray players, gaming consoles,
handheld devices, turntables with phono preamps and more. Connecting these devices to your Prime
Wireless Speaker is as simple as plug-and-play.
1. Ensure the device you want to connect has the appropriate AUX or optical output.
2. Check to see that you have the proper optical, stereo RCA or 3.5mm RCA cable (not included) for
connecting your device and the Prime Wireless Speaker.
3. Connect your device to the Optical input, L/R AUX stereo inputs or the 3.5mm AUX input on your Prime
Wireless Speaker.
4. Select the input by rotating the left control knob. The source will be displayed on the front panel with
backlighting.
a. Select “OPT” for audio playback of devices connected to the Optical input.
b. Selecting “AUX” will allow you to access both the stereo L/R inputs or the 3.5mm line level input.
NOTE: If devices are connected to both the 3.5mm AUX inputs and the L/R RCA AUX inputs, the 3.5MM
input will override the L/R AUX inputs.
5. Operate device as normal.
6. Volume can be controlled from the right-hand control knob of the Prime Wireless Speaker or from the
Play-Fi app.
a. Simply open the app and the default screen will show a scrolling volume control bar for whatever input
you have selected.

Streaming a “Line-In” Audio InputStreaming a “Line-In” Audio Input
Prime Wireless products have the capability to capture audio from one of their on-board audio inputs and
then redistribute it through a Play-Fi group. This is called Line-In Streaming, and speakers paired together
streaming from Line-In are called a
Line-In Zone
.
1. To initiate a Line-In Zone, simply tap on the Add Zone button—which is the little + icon at the top of the
main Play-Fi Control screen—then select the Line-In option
(image 20a)
.
2. The Line-In screen will display and list the products you can pick to lead the zone
(image 20b)
.
3. After selecting the product, if it has more than one audio input, you'll be able to select which one you'd like
as the source.
4. You can also select between the type of content, which includes a Music mode and a TV audio mode to
optimize the listening experience for each different source.
5. Lastly, you'll be able to select the additional Play-Fi products to join to the Line-In Zone.
NOTE: The app automatically remembers your last configuration, so that you can start streaming quickly
the next time.
Once you're ready to go, just tap the Start button, and the app will send all the information over to the host
product so that it can configure the zone
(images 20c, 20d)
. Now that everything is up and running, you can
close the app or leave the network, and the Line-In Zone will continue to run so long as there is content being
played on its input.
