ECODING
This soundbar is capable of detecting and auto-
matically decoding multi-channel audio formats,
such as those found on DVD and Blu-ray movies.
DIGITAL INPUTS (Optical and Coaxial)
When utilizing a digital connection, the soundbar
can process the following formats: Dolby
®
Digital,
DTS Digital Surround™, and digital stereo.
ANALOG INPUT
Digitally encoded sound information cannot be
transmitted to an analog input. This connection
method is adequate for most devices that only
offer two channels of output (such as VCRs, CD
players, older game consoles, or portable media
player docks). Although most surround sound
capable devices, such as DVD and Blu-ray play-
ers, offer both analog and digital connections, the
digital connection should always be employed. If
a source device is connected via an analog left/
right RCA connection, the 5.1-channel encoded
audio content will not be sent to the soundbar.
nology are not capable of wireless connectivity
with this soundbar—a wired connection will work
for these subwoofers.
Please note:
If you decide to no longer use
wireless, turn off the soundbar’s wireless transmitter
by using the menu system and choosing ‘SUB >
WIRELS > TRN.OFF’ [TURN OFF] or ‘SUB > NO
SUB’. Doing this will turn off the transmitter and
automatically set the soundbar for no sub.
WARNING!
When operating wirelessly, the
subwoofer may be susceptible to RF interference
in the 2.4GHz bandwidth from microwave ovens
and wireless devices such as Wi-Fi systems, video
game consoles, cordless telephones, Bluetooth
devices, and baby monitors. Generally, this issue
(intermittent sound or slight popping noises) is eas-
ily resolved by physically separating problematic
devices from one another—a distance as little as
two feet will often alleviate the interference. In the
case of microwave ovens, the interference will only
occur when the microwave is operating.
Using a MartinLogan Dynamo Subwoofer
When configuring your subwoofer we recom-
mend beginning with the following settings:
Low-pass:
Bypass
Phase:
180
Volume:
Knob set to vertical (12-o’clock to

market IR repeater systems to the soundbar.
