Setting up Creative SXFI CARRIER
Setting Up the Soundbar
Connecting the Soundbar to your TV
*
1. Creative SXFI CARRIER supports HDMI Audio Return Channel (ARC) and enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC). This
allows the soundbar to play lossless multichannel audio from the TV, or audio from sources connected to the TV. For
convenience, we recommend that you connect all HDMI input sources to the TV, as this allows most of the interaction you
would have with the system (Source Switching, Volume Control) to be carried out with the TV’s remote control.
2. Creative SXFI CARRIER supports HDMI 2.1 with 8K passthrough. If 8K capable sources are connected to the soundbar,
please use a HDMI-certified ultra-high speed cable (48 Gbps) to establish the connection between the soundbar and TV.
3. Connect Creative SXFI CARRIER’S HDMI-out to the HDMI-in of the TV marked with ARC (or eARC). Typically, only one of the
TV’s HDMI-ins will support ARC. If you cannot find the port, please consult your TV user manual.
Note: If your TV does not support HDMI ARC, connect the TV’s Optical Digital-out to the Optical-in, and configure the TV’s
audio-out to Optical-out.
4. For certain TVs, you will need to manually configure its audio settings to enable ARC (or eARC). Ensure that Creative SXFI
CARRIER is turned on and connected to the TV while the settings are being configured.
Note: The HDMI ARC-in may be manually selected by pressing the TV’s button on the remote control if necessary
*
We recommend that the wired connections to the soundbar are made before wall mounting the soundbar or deciding on
the final placement of the soundbar in the cabinet
