WIRED AND NON-WIRED INPUTS

ANALOG INPUT

This input can be connected to an audio source (CD player, MP3 player, smartphone, TV) equipped with an analog RCA output. Use RCA / RCA cord / RCA cord (not included)

USB INPUT

This input is only useful for use in Wi-Fi / Ethernet mode (paragraphs 4,5,6 below). Connect a USB stick or hard drive containing audio files to this input to automatically network them.

All files in formats recognized by the DLNA server are then listed in the Stream Audio Control application and can be read by all Cabasse Stream players connected to the same network. The USB socket has a 5V – 1A DC power supply for use with a portable hard drive without an external power supply

WIRED AND NON-WIRED INPUTS

ANALOG INPUT

This input can be connected to an audio source (CD player, MP3 player, smartphone, TV) equipped with an analog output RCA or mini-jack type. Use the included RCA / mini-jack adapter for RCA-RCA cord or minijack / RCA cord (not included), or a mini-jack/mini-jack cord if the source output is mini-jack type.

USB INPUT

This input is only useful for use in Wi-Fi / Ethernet mode (paragraphs 4,5,6 below). Connect a USB stick or hard drive containing audio files to this input to automatically network them. Use the supplied USB adapter if needed. All files in formats recognized by the DLNA server included in the speaker are then listed in the Stream Audio Control application and can be read by all Cabasse Stream players connected to the same network. The speaker micro-USB socket has a 5V – 1A DC power supply for use with a portable hard drive without an external power supply

BLUETOOTH CONNECTION

1. Once the speaker is on, press the “Pairing” button on the back
2. The “Pairing” LED on the back should flash
3. Activate Bluetooth on your mobile
4. Select “RIALTO” from the list of available devices
5. Once the connection is successful, the LED “Pairing” on the back stops flashing

WIRE CONNECTION (LAN) TO THE ETHERNET NETWORK

The wired Ethernet connection guarantees an optimum and constant transfer rate in any environment. Use this if Wi-Fi mode operation shows untimely cuts or stops of music, signs of a saturated Wi-Fi network, or too much router-to-stream distance.

Connect an RJ45 cable between the speaker and your router (or Box Internet). The connection is established when the STATUS diode changes to solid blue. The WIFI connection is then automatically disabled.

WIRELESS DLNA CONNECTION (WLAN) TO WIFI NETWORK WITH THE CABASSE STREAM CONTROL APPLICATION

1. Install the Cabasse Stream CONTROL App on your tablet/smartphone from “Play Store” for an Android device, or “App Store” for an Apple product.
2. Open the application and follow the tutorial.
3. Follow the instructions and, upon request, select the wi-fi network to be used and enter the network password.
4. Start listening to your favorite music from your smartphone, k, ey or hard drive connected to THE device’s USB input, or using sources connected to its analog input or optical input.

The sources connected to the analog and optical inputs of the device can be played by all the other Stream devices belonging to the same zone.

USE / SYNCHRONIZE WITH A TV SET

TV MODE

1. Please connect the primary speaker to the TV with the TV cable, and please connect the primary speaker to the secondary speaker with the optical cable.
2. If you find latency between the picture and sound of your speakers, please try the time delay or audio synchronization feature of your TV set, if available.
3. If the TV icon does not appear on the primary speaker display, the TV connection is not found. Check your connections or replace the TV cable.
4. With this connection, you can control the volume of your system via your TV remote control.

ADJUSTING THE LATENCY OF YOUR SPEAKERS

Choose the coaxial SPDIF solution.3 modes will allow you to adapt the latency of your audio system to your needs:

1. HIFI: This mode is the default setting of your speaker; the audio stream is redistributed by the primary speaker to the secondary speakers. The latency is then more than 1 second to ensure the time necessary for the flow to pass through the network and be redistributed to the other speakers with perfect stereo synchronization.
2. TV/DIRECT: This mode does not use the network. The sound is broadcast directly from the audio input to each speaker. Therefore, the sound must be distributed to each device in the zone, and all must have the same configuration. An additional optical switch is required for an optical connection, and this mode must be configured in the settings of each speaker.
3. Low latency: This mode is based on the streaming of one master speaker to the others. The latency is less than 1 second; the stability of this setting will depend on the quality of the network and the bandwidth. If one of your speakers cuts out, it is generally due to a lack of buffering data. A wired Ethernet connection is preferable to a wireless connection. If this setting remains unstable, we advise you to configure the direct TV mode so as not to depend on your network.

DEACTIVATION OF THE SPEAKERS OF THE TELEVISION

Turn on the TV, open the TV menu, and look for a tab such as Audio, Sound, or Speakers. Use the menu function to switch off the TV speakers. This menu item may, for example, be labeled «Speaker On / Off» for speakers on / off. If this function does not exist, bring the TV sound volume with the TV remote control to the minimum level.

ACTIVATION OF THE OPTICAL OUTPUT OF THE TELEVISION

If there is no sound with an optical connection, set the chosen optical output in the TV menu if necessary.

PLAYBACK WITH TV INPUT

The RIALTOs are compatible with the HDMI eARC (enhanced Audio Return Channel) output of your TV for integrated control via an HDMI version 2.1 cable. The speakers must always be connected to your local network first before the HDMI connection. The speakers also support ARC and HDMI CEC. HDMI CEC allows you to use the TV remote control to adjust the volume of the speakers.

CONNECTING THE HDMI CABLE

Connect the HDMI output port on your TV to the TV port on the back panel of the primary speaker using an HDMI cable. In your TV settings, enable eARC, ARC, or CEC in the HDMI settings. Refer to your TV’s user manual for details, as HDMI connections may have different names by manufacturer (e,.g. Anynet+ for Samsung, Simplink for LG). Also o make sure that the TV’s digital audio output setting is PCM or stereo (not Dolby, Bitstream, Auto etc.).

PLAYBACK WITH OPTICAL INPUT

You can connect your devices with optical output (e.g., TVs and game consoles) to the speakers using an optical cable. The speakers must always be connected to your local network first before the optical connection.

CONNECTING THE OPTICAL CABLE

Connect the optical output of your device and the optical input on the rear panel of the primary speaker via an optical cable. Make sure your TV is set to PCM or stereo digital audio output. Refer to your TV’s user manual for details.

PORT LINK

The link port allows for a reduced latency between your two speakers. If you notice a latency between the picture and the sound, it is possible to go into the settings CABASSE RIALTO Wireless HiFi Speaker of your TV. If that is not enough, you can connect your two speakers via the link port.
