If you experience a problem with setup using an Android 7.0 or higher device, please perform the following steps: First, force stop the HK Controller app from running in background. Second, go to your phone or tablet Wi-Fi settings, find the Omni speaker setup Wi-Fi network, and select “Forget Network”.Third, reopen the HK Controller app and begin the setup process again. After performing these steps, you will be able to complete the setup process for your speakers.

Verify your TV supports the ARC feature.Make sure you enable the external speakers/ARC/digital audio output on your TV, this varies by TV manufacturer. Set the AVR1x1S to the TV input. Go into the AVR menu settings and under System Settings, make sure Audio Return Channel is set to Auto and set the TV Control to on.

Although the owner's manual states that owner can use this connector for home upgrade procedure, this is not so. The USB-connector used cannot be bought in commercially available cables, and the port must be considered for technician's use only.

Your model AVR is equipped with a cooling fan that only comes on when the unit's internal temperature rises above a predetermined limit. Thanks to the massive heat sinks used in the AVR series, this temperature is rarely reached. A typical situation where the fan will come on is when the AVR is operating at a very loud volume level with program material that has sounds in all seven channels. Since this is a rare occurrence, you may never notice the fan working. In any case, when the fan does come on, the volume will be loud enough that you might not notice it. Thus, you may own an AVR for many years and never hear the fan, or see it in operation. There is no way to test the fan, and none is needed.

Be aware that the BDS X75 and X77 have two power modes. By pressing the power button briefly, the unit goes into sleep mode, and the fan keeps cooling the unit. Holding down the power button for a couple of seconds puts the BDS into standby, and the fan stops.

It is true that some Bluetooth products have a very loud BT acknowledgment tones. We are sorry, but the level of such tones cannot be changed, and no software solutions will appear.

The amber LED lights indicate that the microphone is muted and the Google Assistant will not react to any voice keywords until the microphone is unmuted.

Harman Kardon Radiance 2400 can decode Dolby Audio and DTS.

Dolby Atmos is not supported, but will be rendered as Dolby Audio.
Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS Surround (2.0 and 5.1) is supported, but will be downmixed to 2.1/2.0.
DTS Master Audio is not supported.

Try another HDMI cable, and make sure that it is a high-speed version. This solution usually solves the problem, which is caused by insufficient cable bandwith.

"In certain network conditions, your speaker may not be visible from your streaming app. You can still use voice control to start & control playback. If you wish to use your phone app to control playback, please power cycle your Citation speaker and your phone."

Never remove a USB stick while the BDS is playing files from it. If the system freezes, switch the BDS unit OFF and then ON with the switch on the back panel to reset.
