General questions
Question 1:
Where can I find internet
radio?
≥
TuneIn offers you free access to a wide
range of internet radio stations from all
over the world.
For radio stations which are tailored
specifically to your own taste of music, try
the music service Last.fm (registration is
required but allows you a non-binding test
period and 30 free music titles).
Question 2:
Can I try out the music
services Napster and simfy?
≥
The music services Napster and simfy
each offer a 30-day test period of their
premium service, during which you can
listen to all titles available from that
provider in full and for free. The test
period is absolutely non-binding, you do
not enter into any obligation. For simfy,
you need to register to make use of the
test period, while Napster offers an
anonymous test period.
Question 3:
What is an active and a
passive speaker?
≥
The active speaker is the one which
contains the amplifiers for both spea-
kers (Master-Box). It also includes the
power connection and Wi-Fi antenna. The
passive speaker (Slave-Box) is connected
to the active speaker via a speaker wire.
Question 4:
My Raumfeld Speaker does
not appear under “Line In”. What could
be the reason for this?
≥
Raumfeld playback devices are only
displayed on the Controller or in the
Raumfeld App under the application
“Line In” if they are ready to transmit an
analogue audio signal to other rooms. The
following requirements must be fulfilled:
• The device needs to be set up and
connected to the Raumfeld system
(both LEDs light up).
• The device is being run in “strea-
ming” mode. You can find related
instructions in the online manual.
System requirements
Question 1:
What system requirements
need to be in place?
• Your Wi-Fi router must have DHCP
enabled.
• IP-addresses should be distributed to
new devices automatically.
If this is not the case, look into the
administration software of your router
and make sure all Raumfeld devices
are assigned a fixed IP address.
• If you are setting up a system without
the Raumfeld Base (see page 11),
your Raumfeld devices are connected
with your own Wi-Fi network. In
this case, your Wi-Fi router needs to
transmit in the frequency band 2.4
GHz (802.11g) and has to be WPA/
WPA2-encrypted or unencrypted.
• If you are setting up a system with the
Raumfeld Base, make sure that your
router is connected to the network
