USE / SYNCHRONIZE WITH A TV SET
CONFIGURATION
1- Lay THE PEARL next to your TV, or a pair of THE PEARL on both sides of the
TV on a solid stand.
2- Leave a space of at least 3 centimeters between the rear wall and the
appliance.
3- Connect THE PEARL to the TV with one of the 2 available inputs. Favor the
SPDIF coaxial solution:
- SPDIF optical input: Connect the "OPTICAL IN" input to the TV audio output
(TV Audio OUT) with the supplied optical cable or equivalent. Make sure that
the protective caps at the ends of the optical cable are removed.
- Analog input 3.5mm jack: if the TV does not have an SPDIF optical output,
connect the "AUX IN" input to the TV's analogue stereo output (RCA TV Audio
out) with an RCA-RCA cable, or to the headphone output of the TV with a
Jack-RCA cord (not supplied).

control to the minimum level.
ACTIVATION OF THE OPTICAl OUTPUT OF THE TElEVISION
If there is no sound with an optical connection, set the chosen optical output in the TV menu if
necessary.
OPTIMIZATION OF AV SYNCHRONIZATION
In order to provide a stable stereo reproduction with a WLAN connection, the standard delay In the
firmware of THE PEARL can be up to 1300 ms. This delay can be devided 6 times or more for AV purpose
In order to provide a stable stereo reproduction with a WLAN connection, the standard delay in the
firmware of THE PEARL can be up to 1300 milliseconds. This delay can be divided by 6 or more for AV
purpose by selecting the TV mode instead of the Hi-Fi mode.
The TV mode allows a reduced delay for AV synchronization for:
- MONO USE with one THE PEARL: stable performances with either WLAN or LAN connections.
- STEREO USE with 2 THE PEARL wired to the LAN: stable performances with High-Res streaming of files
up to 192 kHz/32 bits.
