The quick guide assumes an 

optical digital audio

 connection 

from your TV to the ZVOX speaker.

If your TV does not have an optical connector, you can also 
connect the ZVOX speaker using an analog signal cable (also 
supplied). See instructions later in this manual.

Quick Setup Guide

Connect The Power Cord 
To The ZVOX speaker

First connect the power cord to the power 
jack on the back of the ZVOX speaker.

Then

 connect the AC plug into an AC power 

receptacle. 
The speaker turns on when first connected 
to AC power. Once setup is complete, you 
can rely on the automatic sleep/automatic 
turn-on feature built into the SB380. Press-
ing a volume button on the remote control 
also turns it on if it’s in sleep mode.

Place The ZVOX Speaker

You can place the ZVOX speaker anywhere in 
front of your TV. It can also be placed on any 
level surface near the TV – above, below or to 
the left or right. It doesn’t have to be centered in 
front of the TV. The ZVOX speaker performs best 
if it faces the people watching the TV. 
The connections to the SB380 input panel are 
not affected by your choice of placement.
