WHT24

Introduction

NOTE: Check your system immediately. If it has been damaged in transit, re- port the damage immediately by calling your AR dealer.

The WHT24 wireless speaker system consists of a transmitter and two receivers that provide two independent audio channels and a quality-of-service channel that guaran- tees interference-free, uncompressed, full CD quality sound.

The transmitter connects to any brand of component receiver, either through the user’s receiver speaker outputs or pre-outputs, whichever is more convenient and available.

This system exhibits low visual to aural latency and an extremely robust RF link that is immune to interference from 2.4 GHz devices such as cordless phones, microwave ovens, wireless LANs, cell phones, etc. Antenna polarization diversity is used for re- sistance to fading and signal dropouts.

An internal power amplifier drives each speaker. The user can select which audio channel he/she prefers for each speaker since each channel is independent. Channel separation is also CD quality.

Please follow the directions in this manual to achieve the best performance from your system.

Warnings

Whenever changing cables or pulling plugs, ALWAYS TURN OFF ALL EQUIP- MENT. This prevents transients from entering the speakers and prevents electrical en- ergy from reaching you.

Keep all connections out of the reach of children.
