Paradigm PW Soundbar Manual - Page 36

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Can my soundbar be used as a dedicated center channel? No. The soundbar is designed to work as a 2-channel stereo or multi-channel surround sound playback device. Why is my soundbar not reproducing multichannel (surround sound) audio? This could be caused by any number of things. Review the "Connection" section of this manual for a better understanding of recommended connection methods and possible options that might impact the soundbar's ability to receive multi-channel encoded audio from your television and other audio/video source components. Will this soundbar decode Dolby® TrueHD or DTS-HD Master Audio™? No. This soundbar will not decode Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD Master Audio™. If your audio source (most likely a Blu‑ray player) supports either of these formats, you should configure it to default to the Dolby Digital or DTS Digital Surround™ encoded sound track. How do I connect the soundbar if my television does not have a digital optical or coaxial) output? If your television has analog outputs these can be used instead. For a digital connection connect the digital audio output of your cable box (or DVD, Blu-ray, game console, etc.) directly to the soundbar using a digital optical cable. A direct digital connection with a source component is always ideal. How do I clean my soundbar? Use a dust free cloth (such as a micro fiber cloth) or a soft brush to remove dust from your speakers. Do not spray any kind of cleaning agent on or in close proximity to the drivers. 35 Can I mount this soundbar on the wall with a mounting bracket that pivots? Paradigm does not provide a pivoting wallbracket for this soundbar. Aftermarket options may exist, but we can not recommend or guarantee a specific brand or model. I have a Paradigm subwoofer with a built-in wireless receiver. Is my soundbar's built-in subwoofer wireless transmitter compatible with my subwoofer? No. The subwoofer wireless transmitter built in to your Paradigm PW SOUNDBAR is not compatible with Paradigm's subwoofers with built in subwoofer wireless transmitter technology. You can still utilize wireless functionality by connecting the included subwoofer wireless receiver to the LFE input on your subwoofer or connecting a Paradigm PT-1 or PT-2 transmitter to the Sub Out on the soundbar. Could you suggest a list of suitable electronics and cables ideal for Paradigm speakers? We have no favorites and use electronics and cables quite interchangeably. We would suggest listening to a number of brands-and above all else-trust your ears. Dealers are always the best source for information when purchasing additional audio equipment. Is there likely to be any interaction between my speakers and the television in my A/V system? Yes, but only with CRT televisions. This soundbar is not magnetically shielded and should be kept at least 2 feet away from a CRT television. LCD and plasma televisions will not be affected. How can I remove the metal perforated grille from the soundbar? The soundbar's metal perforated grille is not removable.
