The Onyx Studio 8 features Wireless Stereo Boost which allows you to connect two Onyx Studio 8 speakers together for a more powerful listening experience. Please note: You cannot connect the Onyx Studio 8 to other Onyx Studio speakers such as the Onyx Studio 7, 6 and 5.

The Vi headphones have a couple different sensors, including a touch sensor (for interacting with Vi), a gyroscope (for rotational motion), accelerometer (for movement or vibrations) and a barometer (for elevation / atmospheric pressure). Plus they house a “custom” sensor that uses visible-light and infrared LEDs along with photodiodes, all in the left ear bud, to determine your heart rate. The headphones can also talk to your iPhone/Android's GPS and Wi-Fi to help with figuring out location and other information.

The Harman Kardon Wireless HD Audio System uses UDP ports 6060 and 6080.

To have the best possible performance for OMNI+ system we advise to have a dual-band router with a powerful chipset and ram for best Wi-Fi performance. This will not only help our products to perform better and more stable, but your other devices at home will have more power and fewer interruptions. Please also be sure that your home Wi-Fi router has Multicast enabled, as our Omni+ system requires this feature enabled in order to work (same goes for Chromecast devices). Always connect our Omni+ system to 5 GHz Wi-Fi whenever possible to limit the risk of devices being slow or interrupted on 2.4GHz Wi-Fi.

If you are having trouble with distortion or drop outs, try the following suggestions: 1. Move the audio source closer to the speakers. 2. Move the speakers closer to each other. 3. Make sure only one of the two speakers are connected to the audio source. If both are connected to the audio source, disconnect the connection between the audio source and the second speaker. 4. Make sure the audio source connects with one streaming speaker only, disconnect other Bluetooth connection. 5. Restart both your speakers and the audio source. 6. Make sure the environment is not congested by other wireless signals.

Let's run through some basic check marks to ensure we didn't miss anything while setting up your device.

1. Your Citation device is turned on
2. Check the password you have entered, and re-enter it again (typos can happen).
3. Make sure your mobile device has the initial support needed:
   1. Android 4.4 OS and higher
   2. Apple iOS 10 OS and higher
   3. The latest version of Google Home app
4. Your phone needs Bluetooth to be on 
5. Enable Location Service (Android only)
6. Plus you need to permit Google Home app to access your location on the phone (Android only).

The basic check is done, and we are now moving into your Wireless network setup.

1. Try moving your speaker closer to the Wireless network router 
2. Have you previously connected the speaker to your WiFi network?  If yes, look below or move to "Troubleshooting"
   1. Did you recently make any changes to your network, such as buying a new router, adding an extender, or maybe changed settings?

   2. Maybe your ISP (Internet Service Provider) did some changes, possibly even updating your Wireless router software.

If you still are experiencing issues connecting the device to your Wireless network, let's do some further troubleshooting.

Troubleshooting

1. Your WiFi router might need a reboot, unplug power for 1 minute and connect power again.
   1. While you are rebooting your WiFi router, we advise doing the same for your speaker. Simply disconnect power and reconnect power again.
   2. In case rebooting the speaker didn't work, let's try resetting your speaker by pressing the Reset Button for 5 seconds (Front LED will light up).
2. Go ahead with the setup again (remember to open Google Home app )
3. Reboot your mobile device

WiFi Network Troubleshooting

• Check your WiFi router settings. Be sure that UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) is enabled.
• Change Wireless channels on your WiFi router on 2.4G or 5G..
  • Avoid using other channels on 2.4G other than 1, 6 and 11. The rest are a NO-GO.
  • Keep a maximum of 8 devices in total on 2.4G (that is including our speakers).
  • Move products to WiFi 5G band, if they support it, to reduce the stress factor on the 2.4G band
• Check your WiFi router to see if there is a MAC address limitation.
  • MAC address limitation is when your router is set/fixed to a maximum of 20 devices (or whatever it may have been configured for).
  • When you want to add the 21st device your router will deny access because you have filled up the 20 devices.
  • You need to clear or delete old devices that are not in use anymore. This may require someone with technical knowledge.
  • We advise that you don't have any MAC address limitations at all.
• Avoid bad extenders (Cheap ones are often not powerful enough to deal with or handle the kind of data required to transmit high quality audio).
  • With extenders, the connection between "router and extender" is decreased by 50%.  That said, your data will be even slower,. having to processes it while the speed is decreased.

There are more things you can do to optimize your WiFi router, but these above are the most common issues happening in users homes.

 

Citation speakers support 802.11g, 802.11n, and 802.11ac standards on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.

When the speaker is switching quickly between music sources via Bluetooth, it's normal to experience a very short 'pop' sound because the Bluetooth signal is breaking in and doing the handshake with the speaker. It won't appear after the Bluetooth signal is stable.

Please check the picture settings on your cable box, particularly the aspect ratio settings, which will vary depending on the brand and model of your cable box and on your local cable provider. You may wish to consult with your cable provider for more information on how to adjust the cable box's settings. Some settings, such as a setting to force an analog channel's native 4:3 aspect ratio to 16:9 widescreen to fit your display, may interfere with the cable system's copy-protection feature and cause distortion.

This is caused by the volume synchronizaton system in the iPad. When you switch off the iPad with click sounds activated, it sends the click sound to the Go+Play, also ordering the Go+Play to increase volume to maximum. The hiss is a result of the Go+Play Wireless being at full volume. As soon as you re-start your music playing from the iPad, volume is back to normal music use. If you do not switch the iPad on again, the Go+Play goes into standby after a few minutes, and the hiss disappears. You can prevent this problem by de-activating the click/alarm sounds on the iPad.
