Will my 1st generation OMNI speaker work with 2nd generation OMNI+ speakers?

Yes, they will work together. You can link rooms containing 1st generation Omni speakers with rooms containing 2nd generation Omni speakers and listen to the same music across all of them. Since the 2nd generation has a more powerful processor, we recommend connecting external sources like AUX or Bluetooth to the 2nd generation speakers rather than the 1st generation.

Wi-Fi vs. Bluetooth streaming

Using Wi-Fi allows you to listen to your music in a higher sound quality since Bluetooth protocol compresses the audio signal, where Wi-Fi data easily stream HD Audio content. Take calls without interrupting your current audio music, where Bluetooth will interrupt the stream, because it is a one-way protocol. Control your music from anywhere in the house, where Bluetooth have a limited range. Play the same music across multiple speakers and when using the newest connect features, such as Spotify Connect or Chromecast built-in, then you don't have to worry about battery life, since the devices playing is doing all the data transmission compared to Bluetooth, where it is data between source and device.

Which configuration is best to use for your OMNI BAR+ or ADAPT+

For OMNI BAR+, three sources are available: HDMI (not applicable for ADAPT+), Optical or AUX input. For Adapt+ two sources are available: Optical in/outputs and Analog in/outputs. If you select "Watching movies and TV shows" in the HK controller app for either one of them, you will have a very little delay and good lip sync with the TV for video applications. However, you will not be able to rebroadcast the TV signal to other OMNI+ speakers when selecting this mode. If you select "Listening to music", you will be able to rebroadcast TV signal to other OMNI+ speakers in your house, however, you will have lip sync delay with video material. Select that specific mode if you use HDMI (not applicable for ADAPT+), Optical or AUX for music only. Using Chromecast, Spotify Connect or Bluetooth is not part of these modes. When using one of these streaming methods, you are able to rebroadcast any music source.

What router should i get, to have the best performance for my OMNI+ system?

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.
