Fire Up TVee!
Now the fun starts. Connect the power supply to the soundbar, turn on its power switch and the one on the bass unit.
Turn on the other components in your system and tune in a familiar channel. You should hear sound from TVee. If you don’t, try turning up the volume of TVee using its volume control buttons.
If TVee is connected to the television try adjusting the volume using the television remote control. If the volume level changes it shows that TVee is connected to a “variable” output. The mute control of the television remote should also work. That makes things easy. You can ignore the “Control TVee” section on the following page.
If the TVee is connected to the television it is likely that the television speakers are also playing. Most modern televisions have a way of turning off the internal speakers. There are hundred of models of televisions from dozens on manufacturers so it is impossible to give specific instructions on how to do that. But most use a similar procedure.

If you cannot turn off the internal speakers it is not a problem. TVee will tremendously enhance the sound of the television speakers with extended response and improved definition. However, to get the most from TVee you’ll want it to be louder than the television. Use the following steps to adjust the volume balance:
1Teach TVee to respond to the volume up and down control commands of your television remote. (See the “Control TVee” section for information on how to do that.)
2Turn down the volume of the television all the way using the control buttons on the set.
3Use the volume control buttons on soundbar to set the volume of TVee to a normal listening level.
