Setting Up WiFi And The DTS Play-Fi App
The DTS Play-Fi app offers a rich feature set that unlocks the full potential of your Prime Wireless Pro SoundBase with
smart, wireless control capabilities not available from any other wireless audio products. Downloading the app is an
important first step towards getting the most out of your new SoundBase.
1. Download the Play-Fi App
Search “Play-Fi” in the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, Amazon Appstore or Microsoft Store and download
the free DTS Play-Fi app to start unlocking the full potential of your new Prime Wireless Pro SoundBase.
2. WiFi Set-up Mode
Once powered on for the first time, the Prime Wireless Pro SoundBase will automatically go into Wi-Fi setup
mode, indicated by a rapidly blinking green light on the rear panel. When the blinking light slows down to a slow
pulse, the SoundBase is ready to connect.
3. Setting up with an Apple Device (Android users skip to step 4)
Go to your iOS device’s “Settings” -> “Wi-Fi” and select Play-Fi Device listed under “SET UP NEW AIRPLAY
SPEAKER” on the lower portion of the screen (you may need to wait up to 1 minute for the Pro SoundBase to
appear).
After selecting your Play-Fi device, confirm the desired network, and enter the desired name (e.g. Living Room).
You will get a confirmation screen when completed.
Note: AirPlay setup requires iOS 11.4 or later.
4. Setting up with an Android Device
Open the Play-Fi App and follow prompts in the app to finish setting up your Prime Wireless Pro SoundBase on
your home Wi-Fi network. (image 9a and 9b).
From here, the app will find your Prime Wireless SoundBase and connect it to the WiFi network for you. You will
type in your network password once (image 9c), and the app will do the rest. It’s important not to close or exit
out of the app until the process is full complete or it may disrupt the configuration.
During installation, the Play-Fi app will look for and install any updates. These updates add 3-5 minutes to the

installation time.
Once network set up and updates are completed, you can select a name for your new Prime Wireless
SoundBase (image 9d), control volume (image 9e) and start enjoying music from your favorite streaming services
(image 9f).
5. You’re ready to stream!
Now that your SVS Prime Wireless Pro SoundBase is set up over Wi-Fi, you can access music from your devices
and your favorite streaming services. You can also enjoy Hi-Res Critical Listening Mode, create a multi-room
audio system, and more.
Note: The Play-Fi app might require an update to the Pro SoundBase software upon first connection to enable the
latest features. The app will provide a notification if this occurs – this process can take 3-5 minutes..

Set-up Troubleshooting
Re-triggering Set-Up Mode: If your Prime Wireless Pro is trying to re-connect to an unavailable
network, or you want to connect the SoundBase to a new network, you may need to re-trigger
Set-up Mode. To enter Set-Up Mode, press and hold the Wi-Fi button for 8 seconds. You will hear
a tone at 4 seconds, but do not release the button until after you hear the same tone again after
the full 8 seconds. The product will now be in Set-Up Mode, and the green Wi-Fi light will slowly
pulse on and off. Retry steps 1-4 above in “Setting up WiFi and the DTS Play-Fi App”.
WPS Mode: If your router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) mode, you can use this to
connect your Pro SoundBase to your network. Activate your router’s WPS mode by pressing the
button on your router, and then put your Pro SoundBase into WPS mode. To put the Prime
Wireless Pro SoundBase into WPS Mode, press and hold the Wi-Fi button for 4 seconds. At 4
seconds you will hear a tone and the Wi-Fi light will begin to blink a pattern of two times on and
then a pause and then repeat. When your Pro SoundBase and Router are both in WPS mode,
your Pro SoundBase will automatically connect to the network. Use the Play-Fi app to rename
your Pro SoundBase.

If your SVS Prime Wireless Pro SoundBase is not discovered by the WiFi network, try moving it closer to your router or to a
stronger signal area.

Streaming with Spotify Connect
Spotify works differently from the other streaming services. Instead of Spotify living in the Play-Fi app, the Play-Fi product
itself communicates directly with Spotify.
To use Spotify Connect you must have a Spotify Premium account.
1. Open up your Spotify app, sign in and start playing something.
2. On the Now Playing screen, press the “Devices Available” button, which we’ve circled below (image
13a).
3. You'll then be able to see all the Spotify enabled devices on the network, including your Prime
Wireless SoundBase, that have been configured as Spotify Groups, or just individual products.
The selected products are now tied to your Spotify Premium account, and as long as the product
can communicate with the Internet, you can play to it from your Spotify app (Image 13b-13c).
NOTE: You can stream Spotify to your Prime Wireless SoundBase from your smartphone using the mobile app or a computer via
the desktop app. Both apps update in real time so you can start streaming from the desktop app, leave the room, open the app
on your phone, and control all functions without interruption.
Image 13a. Image 13b. Image 13c.

Streaming Spotify In Multiple Rooms
Spotify Groups are different from normal Play-Fi groups in that they specifically group speakers together for viewing
within the Spotify app. This is so that normal grouping and zoning functions remain modular within the Play-Fi streaming
system.
1. First create a Spotify Group within the Play-Fi app. From the Play-Fi Control screen of the Play-Fi
app, tap the Settings button to open the pop-up menu, and select Spotify Groups, which we’ve
circled below. This option allows you to edit or create Spotify Groups (image 14a).
2. After you've elected to create a new group and given it a name (we labeled it "Downstairs" in the
example) you can then pick from any of your Prime Wireless products to be added to this group.
Any speakers that can't be joined in a Spotify Group will be greyed out. Once you’re done, head
to the Spotify app to start streaming (images 14b, 14c and 14d).
3. If you want to control the volume of individual products within the Spotify Group after you’ve
started your stream, head back to the Play-Fi app, and your Spotify Group will automatically
populate a module on the Play-Fi Control screen (image 14e).
4. For more information on using Spotify Connect, please visit the DTS Play-Fi Knowledgebase.

Stream From Function
Prime Wireless Pro products have the ability to capture audio from one of their wired audio inputs (Line in, HDMI, or
Optical) and then redistribute it through a Play-Fi group. This is called "Stream From", and devices paired together
streaming from another input source are called a "Stream From" Zone.
1. To initiate a "Stream From" Zone, simply select Stream From on the start screen.
a. 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.
i. You can select between the content type, which includes a ‘Music’ mode that
uses DTS Play-Fi's lossless streaming method with a buffer to prioritize audio
playback integrity, or a ‘TV Audio’ mode which removes the buffer and makes
use of premium DTS codecs to reduce latency and prioritize lip-sync when
streaming video content.
ii. Lastly, you'll be able to select the additional Play-Fi products to join to the
"Stream From" Zone.
b. Once you're ready to go, just tap the Start button (image), and the app will send all the
information over to the host product so that it can configure the zone.
c. The app automatically remembers your last configuration, so that you can start
streaming quickly the next time.
Note: Some routers with lower connection speeds, and certain mesh networks may not support the Stream-from
function. Contact the SVS Sound Experts for more information.
Setting Up DTS Play-Fi Multi-Zone Streaming
When additional Prime Wireless products are added, Play-Fi supports streaming different audio to different rooms or
zones, directly from the Play-Fi app. For example, you can send Pandora downstairs for a dinner party, and keep Radio
Disney playing upstairs for the kids.
1. To set up a new zone while playing a current zone, open the Play-Fi Start screen by pressing the
Play-Fi button in the app and then pressing the + (plus) button in the bottom right corner of the
now playing screen.
2. The Start screen shows what zones are playing and what zones are available to choose.
