If your TV has a headphone output or other analog
audio output, you can connect this to the Source 1
(SRC1) or Source 2 (SRC2) socket on the back of the
speakers using a suitable audio cable.
For better sound quality, if your TV has an Optical
Digital output (Toslink) you can connect this to the
Opto socket on the back of the speakers using a
suitable Optical Digital/Toslink cable.
If your TV has HDMI ARC this is the best connection
to make as it not only provides the best sound
quality, but also allows your TVs remote to control
the volume of the speakers.
NOTE: Usually only one of your HDMI Inputs also
features ARC Output.

Connection Guide
How do I use the HMDI Audio Return Channel (ARC) feature?
If you’re having trouble, we’re here to help!
Connect one end of a high quality
‘High-Speed’ or ‘Ultra High Speed’
HDMI cable to the HDMI ARC port on
the rear of your speaker.
NOTE: Lower quality cables that are
not labelled High-Speed will not work
with ARC.
Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI Input of your TV
which is ARC enabled. This socket should clearly be labelled as ARC.
Make sure that HDMI ARC capability is enabled in your TVs setup menu
and the ARC output is set to Stereo/PCM by following the steps below:
•Turn CEC to On/Enabled
•Change Digital Audio Out on your TV to Linear/PCM/Stereo (description
may vary). The Power Duo speakers cannot receive Dolby/DTS surround.
•Turn TV Speakers to O.
•Turn TV ARC to On if your TV has this menu item.
Press the ARC button on the Power Duo speakers’
remote control to select the ARC input.
When ARC is enabled you should hear the audio
from your TV (including any Smart TV Apps it may
have) via your speakers. You can also use the TVs
remote control to control the volume of the speak-
ers. Note this function works when in ARC mode
only.
