Play-Fi Line In Broadcast
The RS200 allows you to use Play-Fi to feed audio
inputs from the RS200 to other Play-Fi speakers. To
do this:
Choose the Line In option from the Play-Fi menu.
Select a source device such as the RS200.

Surround Sound
The RS200 can be part of a Play-Fi 5.1 surround
conguration.
To utilize the surround capability of Play-Fi, the RS200
should be set up as the Surround Master which will be
the front position of the setup. Two additional Play-Fi
surround capable speakers are needed for the right and
left rear.
All the products should be updated with the latest
rmware and software. Nothing less than a 5GHz
capable router is recommended.
To set up surround:
Choose settings icon in the Play-Fi App.
Then choose Surround Sound from the menu.
Then choose the plus sign + and follow the guided
instruction for the setup of wireless speakers.
After setup, a 5.1 audio signal sent to the RS200 will
be decoded and render discrete Surround Left and
Surround Right channels to the rear speakers. Select
signal input (HDMI, Optical or USB) using the RS200
Left Input Selector Knob.
To release the rear speakers from the surround setup:
Go to Surround Sound under settings.
Choose the three vertical dots to the right of the
RS200 Surround Sound settings.
Choose Delete. It will take a moment to
recongure the rear speakers.
Works With Alexa™
Through the Play-Fi App and embedded hardware, the
RS200 can be voice controlled through Alexa enabled
devices. An increasing list of music services can be
streamed by the RS200 as commanded by an Alexa
enabled device.
To enable these features, open the settings page in the
Play-Fi App and choose “Amazon Alexa.” Then choose
the RS200. Default names work better with Alexa for
controlling devices (like “Bedroom” or “Kitchen”).
You will be prompted to sign in to your Amazon
account. After registering, you will be prompted to
launch the Alexa App. Choose “Smart Home” from
the settings menu of the Alexa App, and then choose
to setup a speaker. For speaker brand choose “Other.”
Choose “Discover Devices.” After a minute or so of
searching, your RS200 will be found and added to
Alexa’s devices.

Other Wireless Connecons
Bluetooth®
With built-in Bluetooth capability, the RS200 can be
connected to countless other devices such as phones.
To connect to a Bluetooth device:
Place the RS200 in pairing mode by pressing and
holding in the Left Knob for two seconds. Release the
Knob. The “BT” will blink green. You can now pair

Note that your paired device will take control of the

RS200 will switch to the Bluetooth input.
When playing music from a phone over a Bluetooth
connection, the phones EQ can greatly affect the sound
quality. Check the phone’s EQ if something sounds off.
