  •  We strongly recommend that you use the original packaging with the existing shock-absorbing packaging material.


    Don’t have the original packaging?

    Please follow these important guidelines to ensure that you pack the device safely and avoid shipping damage.
     

    • Never use bubble-wrap only.
    • Choose a sturdy cardboard box that permits at least 10cm of packaging materials between the device and the walls of the box. Putting the device into a cardboard box without proper shock-absorbing packaging materials will result in damage to the device.
       Air-bubble isolation and foam beans is advisable only for very light-weight items.
    • Use packaging materials that cannot move around, and cannot be damaged by the device moving around and being shaken about.
    For all larger items such as sound bars, subwoofers and PartyBoxes

    In addition to above instructions:
    • Use either panels of foam rubber or strong cardboard plates, or other sturdy materials that keep the device completely still inside the box, even if the box is shaken with considerable force.
    • Keep in mind to still have 10cm or more of packing materials between device and box walls.
    This way, your device should reach its destination undamaged.
     
  • We included a Remote Control in your box (I know, that's sweet of us), and you need to pair it with your LINK BAR before it is working.

    This is how you will do it
    1. Press the BLUETOOTH button on the LINK BAR
    2. Now hold the BLUETOOTH button down for 3-5 seconds.
    3. When you see "SEARCHING FOR ACCESSORIES" on your TV screen, release the BLUETOOTH button.
    4. On your REMOTE press the HOME and BACK buttons at the same time.
    5. A Green LED light will flash on the REMOTE to indicate that it is in pairing mode.
    6. Keep holding down the buttons until you see a message on the TV screen that says, "Pairing remote control to LINK BAR" After 10 seconds, release.
    7. If done successfully on your TV screen, you will see an indicator counting down that it will "pair" with your remote.
    Enjoy your entertainment with few clicks away!

    BONUS TIP:  There is an Android app called Android TV that will turn your Smartphone into a Remote controller.
  • If you want to add more depth and bass to your LINK BAR, we have a dedicated subwoofer (not included with the LINK BAR) that you can purchase!

    Pairing the Subwoofer is very simple:
    1. Turn on the soundbar and the subwoofer. If the connection is lost, the LED indicator on the subwoofer blinks slowly.
    2. Press the “Subwoofer Pairing” button on the SW10 subwoofer to enter pairing mode. The LED indicator on the subwoofer blinks quickly.
    3. Press the “Subwoofer Pairing” button on LINK BAR, the LED indicator on the LINK BAR blinks rapidly
    4. If successful, the pairing LED indicator on both subwoofer and LINK BAR will be a steady white LED light. If pairing fails, the sign on the subwoofer blinks slowly.
    5. If the pairing fails, repeat the steps above. If you are still experiencing problems, please try to switch off all wireless devices in the home (such as routers, TV sets with wireless function, telephones, computers, etc.), then try again. It may be overcrowding on the 5GHz frequency, which often causes problems. By eliminating all other wireless activity, this will help space for the LINK BAR to establish its connection. You now should be able to pair without problems. Once pairing is complete, you can switch your devices on again

  • This article mostly pertains to car audio but can also be used when setting the crossover for a home theater system.

    When setting up full-range speakers (2-way, 3-way, etc.), it is not necessary to use a HPF.  If a speaker’s frequency response is 40Hz-20kHz, this means that it naturally rolls off at 40Hz on the low end, and 20kHz on the high end.  So even if it is asked to reproduce 30Hz, it won’t, and all is good.

    However, why make the speaker try to reproduce frequencies it can’t, or make the amp work any harder than it needs to.  For this reason, it is good practice to set your HPF at the lowest frequency listed in the speaker’s frequency response. So, if the speaker’s frequency response is 35Hz-20kHz you would set it to 35Hz.

    Of course, there is no harm in setting it higher than 35Hz, if you’d like, or if you have a subwoofer handling the lower frequencies.  Another reason you might set it higher, if you have a car system with 4” speakers in the rear door, but 6x9’s in the front door.  You can let the 6x9’s handle all of the low frequencies while the 4” speakers take everything above 100Hz (for example), even though the speaker's frequency response may go down to 55Hz.

    There are two other methods for setting the HPF on your speaker.
     

    1. If your speaker plays fine without using the HPF:  Begin playing music and slowly turn up the HPF until you notice that the bass response is diminishing, then slightly turn it back until you get full response again.  This now guarantees that you have filtered out the bass that the speaker cannot reproduce without sacrificing any low frequency reproduction of the speaker.
    2. If your speaker is popping or crackling on really deep bass notes:  This may be due to installation location, or simply pushing too much bass to the speaker.  In this case, turn up the HPF until the popping stops.  This is not something that is normally suggested, but if you have a full system up and running and are happy with the results except for some popping in particularly small speakers, adjusting the HPF up a little may help.

  • 1. Disconnect/unplug the product from the network cable. If dealing with a smartphone, forget the wi-fi on the phone. 2. Shut the router completely OFF. (do not reboot, you must turn it completely off) 3. Boot the router up and let it complete it's connection with everything, usually a few minutes. 4. Shut the router completely OFF, again. This is REALLY important. Before turning it off a second time, the router still has the product in it and is looking to connect to it. Shutting it off a second time allows the router to go through a complete power cycle without ever seeing the product, so it will remove it from its system. 5. Boot the router up, again, and let it complete it's connection with everything. 6. Now plug-in/turn on the product. The router should find the product and all should work. 7. If dealing with a smartphone, search for the wi-fi and reconnect to it. All should work after this.
  • Close and reopen the app. This will ensure that the app recognizes the headphones.
