ProductIntroduction

TheiuiDESIGNUD‐1404“IMMERSE”multi‐room2.1soundbarisabreakthroughin
providinghighperformanceaudiotoyourTVandalsothewholehome.You’rein
control–youcanusesoundbarwithotheriuiDESIGNWi‐Fispeakers.Andthe
configurationoptionsarealmostlimitless.

Historically,ifyouwantedtolistentomusicfromyourTVordigitaldevice,youcould
connecttoyourspeakerwitha3.5mmaudiocable,orBluetooth.ButIMMERSE
providesyoubreakthroughflexibility.Whileitconnectsviaanaudiocableand
Bluetooth,italsocanconnectbyWi‐FiandwiredEthernet.

AndbyusingWi‐FiorwiredEthernet,youcancreateawholehomeaudiosystem,so
thatyouhavemusicdistributedthroughoutyourhome.

TogetthebestexperiencefromIMMERSE,it’sgoodtounderstandsomebasics.First
andforemost,youcansimplyconnecttheproductbyusingthe3.5mmaudiolinein
orBluetoothifyouwanttojustconnectaTVtothesoundbar.Buttoplayyourmusic
tothesoundbarandalsotootherWi‐Fispeakers,youneedtotakeafewadditional
steps.But,let’sfirstwalkthroughthebasics…

SinceIMMERSEisaveryhigh‐performancesoundbarwithamazingtechnology
capability,youhaveoptionstomeetyourlifestyle.First,youneedtodecidehowto
connectyourTVandotherdigitaldevicestotheproduct,andwhatthetrade‐offsare
foreachtypeofconnection.

3.5mmAudioLine‐in:
Ifyouusethe3.5mmstereoaudiolinein,youcansimplyconnectyouraudiosource
toIMMERSE,andyoucanenjoyhighperformanceaudio.Ofcourse,youwillbe
limitedtooneIMMERSEsoundbarandyouhavetoremainphysicallyconnected.

Bluetooth:
Bluetoothisasimplewirelessconnectiontoconnectyourdigitalsourcetoyour
IMMERSE.Bluetoothtechnologyonlyconnectsfromonesource(yourTVorother
digitalsource,likeaPCorSmartphone)toonespeaker,suchasIMMERSEsoundbar.
AndBluetoothhaslowersoundperformancethanawired3.5mmaudioconnection,
duetocompressionofthesignalduringwirelesstransmission.Itsrangeisalso
limited,typicallytooneroom.


Wi‐Fi:
UsingWi‐Fi,youcanconnectyourWi‐Fidigitalsource(suchasyourTV,PC,Mac,
tablet,smartphone,etc)totheIMMERSEsoundbarormoreWi‐Fispeakers.The
benefitofWi‐FioverBluetoothisimportant–Wi‐Fiallowsyoutostreamonesource
toIMMERSEsoundbarandotheriuiDESIGNWi‐Fispeakersalloveryourhouse
(becauseWi‐Fitypicallyhaslongerrange),andthebandwidthofWi‐Fiismuchhigher
thanBluetooth,sothequalityofthesoundperformanceisessentiallythesameasa
3.5mmwiredaudioconnection.

Ofcourse,Wi‐Fiperformanceinthehomeisinfluencedbymanyfactors–thequality
ofyourwirelessrouter,howmanypeopleareconnectedtotherouterand
downloadingatthesametime,thenumberofroutersthatareactive(whichisreally
importantinhigh‐densityhousingsuchasapartmentbuildings).

Ingeneral,werecommendamaximumofoneIMMERSEandtwoiuiDESIGNWi‐Fi
speakersconnectedtoyourrouter.Moreispossibleifyoutakecertaintechnical
stepstoimproveyourbandwidth–butthatdiscussionisbeyondthescopeofthis
manual.

AndWi‐FiperformanceisimpactedbythecapabilityofyourWi‐Fienabledigital
device–forexample,aniOSbasedproductsuchasaniPhonecanonlyreliably
connecttooneWi‐Fideviceatatime.ButifyouuseiTunesonyourPCorMac,you
canconnecttomultipleWi‐Fispeakers.YoucanalsouseAndroidsmartphones,
tabletsandPC’stoconnectusingastandardknownasDLNA,andconnectsto
multipleWi‐Fispeakers.

WiredEthernet:
WiredEthernet,wheretheIMMERSEisconnectedtoyourrouterorEthernetswitch
withanEthernetcablewillgiveyouthebestperformance.Youcantypically
connectmanymorethanthreeWi‐Fispeakers.Ultimately,thereisalimitationof
yourrouterorEthernetswitch,butformoststandardresidentialusersthisisnota
factor.AndwiredEthernetwillgiveyoutheaudioperformanceofa3.5mmwired
connection.

SothefirstdecisionyouwillhavetomakeishowyouwanttoconnecttoIMMERSE.
Onceyoumakethatdecision,thenyoucanfollowtheeasystepsinthismanualto
startenjoyingyourmusic.


IfyouareusinganiPhoneor/andAndroiddevice,wehaveanappthatmakesiteasy
toset‐upyourIMMERSE.YoucanusetheapptoconnecttheIMMERSEtoyourhome
network,youcannameit(LivingRoom,Bedroom,Den),andyoucanassign
IMMERSEandotheriuiDESIGNWi‐Fispeakerstogroups,sothatyoucanplayyour
musictoone,someorallWi‐Fispeakersandsoundbar.

TheIMMERSEapplicationalsoupdatesthesoftwareonyourIMMERSEsoundbar,
keepingitcurrentanduptodate.TheIMMERSEapplicationdoesnottaketheplace
ofyourmusicplayersoftware,suchasiTunes,WindowsMediaPlayerorstreaming
musicserviceapplicationssuchasPandora.Theapplicationletsyouconfigureyour
IMMERSEspeakers,andthenyouuseyourfavoriteapplicationstoselectandplay
music.
