ABOUT THIS USER GUIDE > Information on the descriptions in this User Guide

INTRODUCTION

Features

This product is a bar-shaped speaker system for your TV that allows you to easily enjoy surround sound on

the TV with a rich sense of presence.

By connecting the product to the Internet, audio playback from streaming services and use of the voice

assistant “Amazon Alexa” are also available.

In addition, this product is compatible with “TRUE X SURROUND” that provides real surround sound using

wireless speakers as surround speakers for the product.

nProduce surround sound just by connecting to a TV

The “height speakers” built into the top of the sound bar which are designed exclusively to add a vertical

dimension to the sound, together with “Dolby Atmos” object-based audio technology, allow for virtually

reproducing sound not only from horizontal directions, but also from varying heights. This gives a vastness

to the sound that seems to envelop your whole body, and enhances the feeling of being immersed in the

worlds of movies, television, and music.

nProduce real surround sound using the TRUE X SURROUND function

The TRUE X SURROUND function provides real surround sound just by using TRUE X SURROUND compatible

wireless speakers as surround speakers for the sound bar.

When playing audio in ALL mode of the TRUE X SURROUND function, the same audio is output from the

sound bar and from the wireless speakers. This mode is useful for playing audio as background music in a

large room.

For details, see the following TRUE X SURROUND Connection and Operation Guide.

nConfigure the sound to match the situation

Clear Voice

This function focuses on the acoustic image of human voices such as dialog and narration within the audio

and emphasizes the voices without changing the overall volume or individuality of the sound. Only the

human voices become easier to hear, and it gives a clear sense of localization to the human voices.

(“Playing back human voices clearly (CLEAR VOICE)”(p.50)

Bass Extension

This function focuses on the acoustic image of the bass portion and enhances bass sound. It allows you to

enjoy rich bass performance with a strong presence by adjusting the overall acoustic image of bass sound to

clarify without disturbing the balance of the overall sound.

INTRODUCTION > Features

nMultiple control methods to suit various usage situations

In addition to the sound bar’s controls and the included remote control, the TV’s remote control, the

dedicated smartphone app “Sound Bar Controller”, or Amazon Alexa can also be used to control the sound

bar.

Audio Return Channel (eARC/ARC) and HDMI Control function

An HDMI control function compatible TV allows for controlling the sound bar’s basic functions using the TV’s

remote control. An Audio Return Channel (eARC/ARC) compatible TV can be connected to the sound bar

using a single HDMI cable.

(“Connecting to a TV using an HDMI cable (commercially available)”(p.27)

(“Using a TV’s remote control to control the sound bar (HDMI Control)”(p.57)
