Adding or Controlling Multiple DTS Play-Fi
Enabled Devices to your System
The Wireless Collection makes creating a whole house wireless music system
as simple as pushing a button or two. Add more speakers, a sound bar, an
amp or adapter to an existing audio system. The Definitive App and your
home network do the rest.
To add additional DTS Play-Fi devices:
• From the Definitive App home page, choose "Settings."
• From the "Settings" screen, choose "Add DTS Play-Fi Device."
• Follow the app's instructions to add the device to your list.
Maximum number of rooms/zone supported:
Eight separate wireless source devices (smartphones, tablets, etc.), each with
its own source, are supported simultaneously and any wireless source device
can stream to 8 playback devices. Due to bandwidth limitations of most
wireless networks, we do not recommend more than 16 wireless DTS Play-Fi
products on the Wi-Fi network at a given time. With hard-wired Ethernet
connections (customary for audio/video racks or in custom installation
configurations), up to 256 devices can be theoretically supported. Call the
Aficionado hotline for more information.
Creating a Stereo Pair
Creating a stereo pair with two Definitive Technology Wireless speakers will
make your music sound even more extraordinary. Setup is easy:
• First, make sure the two speakers you want to make a stereo pair are
in the same room.
• From your list of devices, go the upper right-hand corner and
select the three dots.
• From the drop-down menu, select "Stereo Setup."
• Press "Select a Stereo Pair."
• From your list of speakers, you will first choose the LEFT speaker.
• Next choose the RIGHT speaker.
• Name the Stereo Pair.
• The name of the Stereo Pair will appear on the "Create a
Stereo Pair" screen.
• You're finished. Enjoy!
Primary vs. Secondary Speakers
Once inside the Definitive Technology app, you will notice that when sending
music to your devices, they are grouped into primary and secondary zones.
The DTS Play-Fi software requires that a primary speaker be selected to create
a new listening session or zone. This is designed to maximize synchronization
down to 1 millisecond, thereby eliminating any sound echo that can be found
from other ecosystems.
Our recommendation for your listening environment is to always select as
your primary device the DTS Play-Fi enabled product with the strongest
signal strength. Note, however, that secondary speakers are connected to
your primary speaker. As such, if you disable your primary speaker, your
secondary speakers will likewise be temporarily disabled until a primary
speaker is once again selected.

Dual-Band Capabilities
Definitive Technology Wireless Collection products all have "dual-band"
capabilities. The most commonly used wireless band -- 2.4 GHz – can
often times be congested and slow, especially in environments where you
have many routers sending wireless signals (ex. mixed-use developments like
apartment buildings). In these instances, the Wireless Collection can also
jump onto the 5 GHz band.
Please call the dedicated Definitive Technology Aficionado hotline at
1-800-223-5246 for further questions related to dual-band capabilities.
DTS Play-Fi Accepted File Formats:
• mp3 (MPEG Layer III)
• m4a and aac (Advanced Audio Coding)
• flac (Free Lossless Audio Codec)
• wav (Waveform Audio File)
File Quality:
• Lossless file reproduction up to 16-bit/48kHz (CD Quality) and
proper file handling for full compatibility with all high-resolution music
up to 24bit/192k.
• Plays all format bitrates [kbps]. DTS Play-Fi transmits hi-resolution files,
but it does down-sample them so that they can be distributed
throughout a home.
