Getting Started
Home Network Basics
In general, Wi-Fi is the wireless streaming of data over a network. Here,
Wi-Fi audio is the streaming of music throughout a home by connecting multiple
speakers and/or devices to a wireless network. The controller for the Denitive
Technology Wireless Collection is the Denitive Technology App, which sends
music information to each DTS Play-Fi enabled speaker or device.
Network and System Requirements
It all begins by building a wireless home network, preferably one with a
high-speed Internet connection. Here’s what you’ll need to connect your
W Amp to your network:
• A Wireless Network connected to the internet with an 802.11g router
or better.*
• An Android device with version 2.2 operating system or newer OR
an iOS device with version 6.0 operating system or newer.
• The password for your wireless network (if required).
*Router type is usually listed on the router, itself. Please call the dedicated
Denitive Technology Acionado hotline at 1-800-223-5246 for further
questions related to router type.
For The Best Music Streaming Experience
To ensure your system is operating under the best environment possible, here
are a few additional tips:
• For the fastest streaming performance, especially when connecting
to multiple speakers simultaneously, an 802.11N router or better is
recommended.
• Ensure the Play-Fi device is within wireless reach of your router,
or that the signal is not blocked by concrete, brick, or other walls. The
quality of your connection can be observed in the Denitive App by
the Wireless Strength icon.

SUB OUT
Connecting W Amp to Speakers
Your speakers should be rated to handle at least 75W for 8 Ohm speakers,
and at least 150W for 4 Ohm speakers. Do not connect speakers rated at
less than 4 Ohms to the W Amp.
If you’re using speaker wire only (no banana plugs), simply loosen the binding
post caps to uncover the connection hole.
Insert the stripped end of the speaker wire into the hole, then tighten the cap
securely. The bare wire should be held firmly in the binding post.
If you’re using banana plugs, insert the plug into the back of the binding post
until a tight connection is made.
NOTE: Connect the red (positive +) and black (negative -) terminals from each
speaker to the corresponding binding posts on the W Amp, identified by a
red ring (+) and a black ring (-) respectively. Do not mismatch polarities, as this
will result in weak, distorted sound.

Connecting your W Amp
Wi-Fi Setup
1. To ensure easy setup, place your W Amp near your internet-
connected wireless router. When setup is complete, you can
move your device anywhere you want to.
2. Connect the included power cable to the W Amp and a power
outlet. The device will power on automatically.
3. The white light on the back will blink quickly for about 20 seconds,
after which it will begin to pulse slowly.
4. The slowly pulsing light means your device is ready to connect to
your Wi-Fi network.
NOTE: if the Wi-Fi LED is not pulsing slowly, Press and hold the
Wi-Fi setup button (for 8 seconds), until you hear the second
set of tones.
5. Download the Definitive Technology App from the Apple App Store or
Google Play Store.
6. Launch the app and follow the instructions.
NOTE: To enable Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) mode with a WPS
compatible router, press and hold the Wi-Fi button on the W Amp
for 4 seconds or until the rst beep. Now push the WPS button
on your wireless router. The W Amp will automatically connect to
your network without the need to enter your password.
Wired Ethernet Connection
A hard-wired Ethernet connection can provide a faster transfer rate than a
wireless connection. All Denitive Technology Wireless Collection
Products (except the W Studio) have a dedicated Ethernet port that enables
you to create a hard-wired connection directly to your router.

Working with NAS Drives, PCs, and OSX Devices
The Denitive App is capable of recognizing any Media Server or NAS Drive
that is broadcasting over your home network and that’s congured for open
access using the DLNA protocol.
Using the Play-Fi Windows app, the Denitive Wireless Collection products
will play any le capable of being played by the Windows operating system,
including all music services. See “Downloading the DTS Play-Fi App” above
to learn more.
Because OSX devices don’t support DLNA, a third party software
(ex. Twonky, Plex or Servio) must be downloaded for them to be visible
to the network. Once downloaded, all locally stored content on OSX-based
devices will show up within the Denitive Technology app under
“Media Server.”
Playing Music
Now that you’re connected, open the Denitive Technology app to begin
playing music. Start by selecting the preferred music source. The next step is
to select the device(s) from which you want to hear the music. When done,
click “Next.” You can now select the music you want to play.
Music Choices to Select from Include:
Your Personal Music Library—hear all the music on your phone,
tablet or computer for the rst time in high quality audio and
through your Denitive speakers. It never sounded better.
Internet Radio—Enjoy radio stations from around the world, in
virtually any genre, and all of it free. Internet Radio has 37,000
stations with popular brands like Disney, BBC, NPR, Fox News
Radio, Wall Street Journal Radio and more.
Online Services—Stream the most popular online music services
including Pandora and Songza. For the most updated list of
music services, visit www.denitivetech.com. Services like KKBox,
QQMusic and Deezer are available in select countries outside of
North America.
Adding or Controlling Multiple Play-Fi
Enabled Devices to your System
The Wireless Collection makes creating a whole house wireless music system
as simple as pushing a button or two. Add more speakers, a sound bar,
an adapter to an existing audio system. The Denitive App and your home
network do the rest.
To add additional Play-Fi devices:
• From the Denitive App home page, choose “Settings.”
• From the “Settings” screen, choose “Add Play-Fi Device.”
• Follow the app’s instructions to add the device to your list.
Maximum number of rooms/zone supported:
Eight separate wireless source devices (smartphones, tablets, etc.), each
with its own source, are supported simultaneously and any wireless source
device can stream to 8 playback devices. Due to bandwidth limitations of
most wireless networks, we do not recommend more than 16 wireless Play-Fi
products on the Wi-Fi network at a given time. With hard-wired Ethernet
connections (customary for audio/video racks or in custom installation
congurations), up to 256 devices can be theoretically supported. Call the
Acionado hotline for more information.
Primary vs. Secondary Speakers
Once inside the Denitive Technology app, you will notice that when sending
music to your devices, they are grouped into primary and secondary zones.
The DTS Play-Fi software requires that a primary speaker be selected to create
a new listening session or zone. This is designed to maximize synchronization
down to 1 millisecond, thereby eliminating any sound echo that can be found
from other ecosystems.
Our recommendation for your listening environment is to always select as your
primary device the Play-Fi enabled product with the strongest signal strength.
Note, however, that secondary speakers are connected to your primary
speaker. As such, if you disable your primary speaker, your secondary
speakers will likewise be temporarily disabled until a primary speaker is once
again selected.

Dual-Band Capabilities
Denitive Technology Wireless Collection products all have “dual-band”
capabilities. The most commonly used wireless band -- 2.4 GHz – can
often times be congested and slow, especially in environments where you
have many routers sending wireless signals (ex. mixed-use developments like
apartment buildings). In these instances, the Wireless Collection can also
jump onto the 5 GHz band.
Please call the dedicated Denitive Technology Acionado hotline at
1-800-223-5246 for further questions related to dual-band capabilities.
Software Updates
In the spirit of improving the performance and functionality of your system,
software updates will be required from time to time. To download those
updates, we highly encourage you to register your Denitive product during
the setup process. On the home page of the app, scroll down to “Acionado
Services” and follow the instructions.
Basic Troubleshooting
Under “Settings” on the Denitive App home page, you will nd a category
called Troubleshooting.
This link will take you to the Play-Fi Knowledge Base
https://play-.com/faq?/support. Note that quite often an issue can be
traced back to router or network performance. As always, for help
answering any of your questions, please call the Acionado hotline at
1-800-223-5246.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Router speeds and ranges that a manufacturer
lists are determined under ideal operating conditions. A router’s
signal can be affected by walls and their construction materials.
