DESCRIPTION OF THE OPERATING
ELEMENTS OF THE PIEGA CONNECT
Volume 1
The “Volume” setting is used to activate or deactivate the volume control 12
x = volume control deactivated. PIEGA connect uses the maximum volume.
This setting is suitable for use with playback devices with integrated volume control.
The following are examples of possible regulated sources:
- Multiroom systems – the volume is controlled via the respective app.
- Connection via Bluetooth – the volume is controlled by the corresponding Bluetooth device.
- Network player with integrated volume control
- Television
var = volume control activated
This setting is suitable for use with unregulated playback devices.
Unregulated playback devices do not offer an option to adjust the volume using the
playback device (signal output with maximum volume).
A few examples of possible unregulated sources are:
- CD player
- Record player (please note that depending on the model of the record player,
an additional phono preamp may be required.)
NOTE: Some playback devices can activate and deactivate the volume control independently.

PIEGA recommends using a digital input wherever possible ( 3or 4).
Using a digital input eliminates the need for a conversion (analog to digital) in the signal chain, leading to a better sound result.

User Manual // 1312 // User Manual
ANALOG SOURCE
If the music is in digital form (CD, streaming, etc.), it is converted into an analog signal by the playback device. However, PIEGA
connect only processes digital signals internally. As a result, the analog signal must be re-converted into a digital signal.
Group 6 7
The “Group” function is only required when using several PIEGA wireless systems (more than one PIEGA connect). The music
signal is only sent to speakers within the same group. This ensures the smooth operation of up to three independent PIEGA
wireless systems in one room/at/house.
The group display 7shows the selected group colour and the connection status. This must correspond to the speaker in
order to operate.
NOTE: We deliver our speakers and PIEGA connect with the group setting “white”. When using a PIEGA wireless system, we
recommend leaving the group setting as “white”.
Wireless 8
The “Wireless” function is only required to eliminate any possible disturbances. This may include no connection or a lapse/
stuttering of the music playback. The PIEGA wireless system sets up an independent wireless network to transfer data from the
PIEGA connect to PIEGA speakers. This means that the system is not reliant on your home WLAN. This ensures a continuous
transfer of data.
Should the transmission be impaired by a neighbouring wireless network, the carrier frequency of the wireless signal can be
adjusted.
Such an impairment can be determined as follows:
Your system is running smoothly, provided no clearly audible faults (interruptions, stuttering, etc.) can be made out in the music
playback, or your speakers are unable to connect to the PIEGA connect.
The following carrier frequencies are supported:
A: 5.2 GHz PIEGA recommends using this frequency whenever possible.
B: 5.8 GHz
C: 2.4 GHz (also used by Bluetooth, which may cause faults when it is combined with the wireless system)
DIGITAL SOURCE
Continuous digital signal processing
NOTE: In some playback devices such as televisions, the volume control of the playback device only functions via the analog
connection. In this case, please observe the operating instructions for your playback device.

Bluetooth pairing 13
The Bluetooth pairing establishes the connection between the PIEGA speaker system and your smartphone, tablet, etc. and
enables the radio link. You must carry out the pairing process between a device and the PIEGA connect in order to establish
a BLUETOOTH connection for the rst time.
Upon pressing the pairing button 13 , the PIEGA connect will be recognised by your BLUETOOTH device, allowing a connec-
tion to be established.
Flashing of the pairing button 13 signals pairing mode.
NOTE: The PIEGA connect supports a simultaneous connection of up to two Bluetooth devices.
WARNING: If two Bluetooth devices are already connected to the PIEGA connect, the pairing function can no longer be
carried out. In order to enable pairing, the Bluetooth connection with one of the two devices must be disconnected.

DESCRIPTION OF THE OPERATING
ELEMENTS OF THE PIEGA SPEAKER
Group 12
This function is only required when using several PIEGA wireless systems (more than one PIEGA connect).
Ensure that the same group is selected as with your PIEGA connect.
The music signal is only sent to speakers within the same group. This ensures the smooth operation of up to three independent
PIEGA wireless systems in one room/at/house.
The group display 2shows the selected group colour and the connection status. This must correspond to the respective
PIEGA connect.
You can nd additional information about the connection status in overview of the status displays.
NOTE: More than two speakers can be operated simultaneously in the same group. Our speakers and the PIEGA connect
are delivered with the “white” group setting as standard.
Speaker position 34
Various speaker setups and the position in the room can be determined using the “Speaker position” function.
SETUP 3
The speaker’s position in the room has an impact on the music playback. This is why we offer three different speaker setups.
NEUTRAL:
- Speaker located 0.5 m or farther from the rear wall
- Neutral frequency response
WALL:
- Speaker located 0.5 m or closer from the rear wall
- Frequency response with a slight drop in the bass range to counteract the excessive bass aused by the setup.
CORNER:
- Speaker located in the corner of a room
- Frequency response with a signicantly reduced bass range to counteract the excessive bass
caused by the setup
- Also suitable in combination with a subwoofer

User Manual // 2120 // User Manual
SETUP POSITIONS 4
Determining the speaker position (left/right).
In wireless operation, both audio tracks (left and right channel) reach the speaker. This is why the respective position in the
stereo setup must be assigned to the speaker.
You can also select the “Mono” setting. We recommend this setting only if one speaker is being used in the room (for example
in the kitchen, bathroom, etc.).
In the “Mono” setting, both the left AND right channels are played.
Input 5
“Input” refers to an analog music signal / analog input.
The speakers from the PIEGA wireless series can also be used solely as active speakers, i.e. instead of using wireless signal
transmission, the speaker can also be connected using an RCA (cinch) cable.
WARNING: Only use sources with integrated volume control for this conguration.
In this conguration, the wireless unit in the speaker is disabled and thus no longer sends or receives data.
NOTE: Only plug in or unplug the cable when the device is switched off.

OPERATION
General
Thanks to the automatic standby function, the PIEGA wireless system operates without an on/off switch. As soon as a music
signal appears, the system starts with minimal delay. If there is no music signal, the PIEGA wireless speakers switch to standby
mode after approximately 10 minutes.
Bluetooth function and priority
Priority is always given to Bluetooth playback, i.e. as soon as music is played via Bluetooth, the playback device connected via
cable is disconnected and the Bluetooth signal is transmitted via the speaker.
Example:
1. Music is played by an external playback device (music source):
a. CD player
b. Multiroom system
c. TV
d. Record player
e. …
2. A Bluetooth device is connected
to the PIEGA connect.
The music playback stops /
does not start.
