CONGRATULATIONS!<br />

YOU HAVE TAKEN A LEAP OF FAITH. A step towards a world of wireless<br />

bliss. It takes a great deal of courage to liberate yourself from the shackles<br />

of speaker cables and ordinary stereo systems. But you have jumped right<br />

into it. FOR THIS WE SALUTE YOU.<br />

We have done everything in our power to make your <strong>Libratone</strong> sound<br />

system as simple and user friendly as possible. Hopefully this manual will<br />

answer any questions you might have.<br />

Thank you for buying our product. Thank you for joining our movement.

<strong>Libratone</strong> Live and Lounge are not dock station. They are AirPlay sound<br />

systems. This means that your iDevice must be AirPlay compatible (iOS 4.2<br />

and iTunes 10.1 or later). If you have an older Apple product, this might not<br />

be the case, so make sure to check out the list on the right.<br />

AIRPLAY COMPATIBILITY<br />

If you find your product on the list, you’re almost set. The only thing you<br />

need now is a wireless Internet connection in your home, since AirPlay is<br />

an Internet streaming technology. Now, with that out of the way, you can<br />

go set your music free.

You can place <strong>Libratone</strong> Live just about anywhere you like and get the<br />

FullRoom perspective. Still, a bit of good advice won’t hurt:<br />

If you place <strong>Libratone</strong> Live against a hard backdrop with about 20 cm/8<br />

inches of air, you allow the sound to reflect off the wall. This gives you a<br />

deeper bass and an even fuller soundscape.<br />

If you place <strong>Libratone</strong> Live in a corner close to the walls, it takes the edge<br />

off the FullRoom stereo experience. We won’t recommend it, but you are<br />

your own master.<br />

If you download the “<strong>Libratone</strong>” app from Apple’s App Store, you can enhance<br />

your sound experience. By feeding the app with info about the placement of<br />

your <strong>Libratone</strong> Live, it automatically adjusts the sound settings to match the room.<br />

You can place <strong>Libratone</strong> Lounge just about anywhere you like and get the<br />

FullRoom perspective. Still, a bit of good advice won’t hurt:<br />

If you place your <strong>Libratone</strong> Lounge against a hard backdrop, you get the best<br />

sound experience. It doesn’t matter if you hang it on the wall, place it on a<br />

shelf or put it on the ground – the sound won’t change.<br />

If you plan on using your <strong>Libratone</strong> Lounge for TV-sound, we recommend<br />

that you place it underneath your television set. This way you get both the<br />

FullRoom perspective and the regular stereo effect.<br />

If you download the “<strong>Libratone</strong>” app from Apple’s App Store, you can enhance<br />

your sound experience. By feeding the app with info about the placement of your<br />

<strong>Libratone</strong> Lounge, it automatically adjusts the sound settings to match the room.<br />

So far, so good. Now what you need to do is set up your AirPlay<br />

network. To do this properly, check out the Setup guide for the<br />

product you will use to set up AirPlay:<br />

• iPhone / iPad / iPod touch<br />

• Mac<br />

• PC<br />

• WPS (Router with Wi-Fi protected setup)<br />

You’ll find the Setup guides inside the packaging.<br />

SETUP AIRPLAY

Once your AirPlay system is set up, you’re good to go.<br />

To start AirPlaying just look for the AirPlay icon on your iDevice or in iTunes<br />

and choose your <strong>Libratone</strong> sound system as the speaker.<br />

If your have more than one <strong>Libratone</strong> unit, you can set up a multi room<br />

system via iTunes on your Mac/PC. This way you can stream your music<br />

to 3-6 speakers simultaneously depending on your network.<br />

You can connect the old fashioned way as well, by using the 3,5 mini jack/<br />

digital mini plug. This is a great way of upgrading the mediocre sound of<br />

your TV. You can use both the analog and the digital ports of your TV. We<br />

recommend you use the analog connection (‘headphone out’), since this<br />

enables you to use your TV remote control to adjust the volume.<br />

If you choose the digital connection, you need to download our app to<br />

control the volume. On most Apple products you can adjust the volume<br />

directly on the product - also when you use the digital connection.<br />

Oh, by the way - in our world wireless always trumps wires. This means<br />

that your AirPlay streaming overrules the AUX connection. So make sure<br />

nothing is streaming, when you want to use AUX.<br />
