CONNECTING SOURCES

The ELARA active speakers can be paired with a variety of sources. Here are the various options:

Connection via Bluetooth

Bluetooth™

This enables you to stream music wirelessly thanks to latest generation 4.0 A2DP aptX Bluetooth technology. AptX is a coding system which enables you to stream music to your Elara speakers via Bluetooth, delivering sound approaching CD-quality. The range is of about 10 meters, depending on the surroundings and obstacles within the path.

Elara active speakers lets you play music from any Bluetooth-enabled sources: smartphone, tablet, computer, etc. To do so:

▶ Slide the power switch on the back to the ON position to activate your Elara speakers.
▶ Select the "Bluetooth" input using the "INPUT" button on the back of the speaker or on the remote. The blue LED indicates that the source is connected via Bluetooth.
Press the "Bluetooth" button on your remote. The blue LED blinks, indicating that the system is seeking to connect to a Bluetooth-enabled device (smartphone, tablet...).
When you search on your Bluetooth device (refer to the user guide if needed), the speakers should appear under the name "LN01A" or "LN05A", you can then connect to this. Your speakers are now linked to your device and will reproduce the sound from the device. The connection will be made automatically next time you switch on your speakers if Bluetooth is selected and enabled on your device.
▶ If you wish to connect another device while the previous one is still connected, disable the Bluetooth connection from your formerly paired device or disconnect it directly from the Bluetooth menu. The LED will blink again, and the seeking mode will be activated.
- Elara active's Bluetooth process allows you to change track, play and pause directly from your remote, without using the connected device.
- Your Bluetooth device now controls your speakers and you can change the volume directly from this device.

Connection via an RCA cable

The RCA input enables you to connect your Elara active speakers to your TV, CD player, turntable or any other device. To do so:

• Plug the red and white connectors into "RCA INPUT" on the back of the speaker, minding the colours, and do the same on the source.
  Select the "RCA" input using the remote or the "INPUT" button (volume button) on the back of the active speaker. (Source selecting order is indicated above the "INPUT" button.) The green LED indicates that the source is actually connected to the "RCA" input. Make sure the selector is switched to "LINE". Your system is ready to operate.

Connecting a turntable

To plug a vinyl player, push the "PHONO IN" switch to the left for the signal to pass through the phono chain. Connect the ground wire to the dedicated screw terminal on the back of your amplified speaker and to your turntable.

Connection via a 1/8-inch (3.5mm) jack cable

The jack input - for a 3.5mm jack cable - (AUX IN) enables you to connect your speakers to many devices: smartphone, audio player, tablet, computer, television, etc. To do so:

Plug one end of the jack connector into the "AUX INPUT" terminal and the opposite end into your device.
Select the "3.5" input using the remote or the "INPUT" button (volume button) on the back of the amplified speaker. (The source selecting order is indicated above the "INPUT" button.) The green LED indicates that the source is actually connected to the "AUX" input. Your system is ready to operate.

Connection via an optical cable

The optical input enables you to connect your ELARA speakers to any audio device with an optical output: audio player, DVD player, television, etc. To do so:

Plug one end of the optical cable into the back of the active speaker in the "OPTICAL" input and the opposite end into your device.
Select the "OPTICAL" input using the remote or the "INPUT" button (volume button) on the back of the active speaker. (The source selection order is indicated above the "INPUT" button.) The green LED indicates that the source is actually connected to the "OPTICAL" input. Your system is ready to operate.

Connection via a coaxial cable

The coaxial input enables you to connect your ELARA speakers to any audio device with a coaxial output: CD player, DVD/Blu-ray player, television, etc. To do so:

Plug one end of the coaxial cable into the back of the active speaker in the "COAXIAL" input and the opposite end into your device.
Select the "COAXIAL" input using the remote or the "INPUT" button (volume button) on the back of the active speaker. (The source selection order is indicated above the "INPUT" button.) The green LED indicates that the source is actually connected to the "COAXIAL" input. Your system is ready to operate.

Connection of a subwoofer

The ELARA speakers include a subwoofer output allowing the connection of a subwoofer.

A RCA to 2 RCA cable (Y cable) must connect the SUB output of the ELARA speakers to the 2 LINE IN of the subwoofer. Set the subwoofer volume and cut-off frequency (Crossover) so that you get a proper sound coherence between the ELARA speakers and the subwoofer. Subwoofer sound needs to be heard without being too powerful.

Diagram showing two electronic equipment setups with labeled components and connections, including a speaker and a device labeled 'TRIANCE'.

Your ELARA speakers have a band equalizer that enables you to adjust the low and high frequencies as you like.

Adjusting the amount of bass

6 positions available in 2dB steps over a range between 30 and 400Hz.

(-6dB, -4dB, -2dB, 0dB, +2dB, +4dB, +6dB).

The factory setting defaults to 0dB.

The low-frequency output will increase or decrease each time the remote control is pressed.

Adjusting the amount of treble

6 positions available in 2dB steps over a range between 2 and 30KHz.

(-6dB, -4dB, -2dB, 0dB, +2dB, +4dB, +6dB).

The factory setting defaults to 0dB.

The high-frequency output will increase or decrease each time the remote control is pressed.

When the speaker goes on standby, the settings will be stored for the next use.

To restore the factory presets, you just need to press the "RESET" button on the remote.

AUTO STANDBY FEATURE

If no signal is received for 30 minutes, the speakers will automatically switch to standby. To exit the standby mode, simply switch the speakers back on with the remote (see page 21).

CAUTION

To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not open the speaker.
