outlet component which powers only that appliance and has no additional outlets or branch
circuits.
-Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse such as being twisted, kinked,
pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets and
point where the cord is connected.

2.4 Speakers & Subwoofer to be used with Neo
2.4.1 Wireless Speakers
The main benefit of Violet home theater system is the flexible placement of speakers around the room
to produce “Surround sound.” The Violet system may have up to seven speakers (plus a subwoofer).
Each speaker is powered by its own amplifier channel inside the unit.
2.5 Wireless Subwoofer (QB3)
A subwoofer is designed to play only the lowest
frequencies (the bass). It augments satellite
speakers used for the other channels. You may
use two subwoofers for additional power and
even distribution of the sound.
