INTRODUCTION

Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the JAZZ AUDIO SOUND PLATFORM Table-Top Surround Sound System. The JAZZ AUDIO SOUND PLATFORM greatly enhances the sound quality of today’s flat-screen LED, LCD, and Plasma TVs without having to add a lot of speakers. A single speaker system that requires very little space, the SOUND PLATFORM can be installed below or in front of a high-definition TV or inside a cabinet. You’ll enjoy simulated surround sound from a single, space-saving cabinet with deep, enveloping bass without bulky speakers or amps. The JAZZ AUDIO SOUND PLATFORM easily connects to inputs on today’s flat-panel TVs and digital music players and even syncs to almost any Bluetooth audio device.

JAZZ AUDIO SOUND PLATFORM FRONT PANEL

• STATUS LED – (Behind front panel lens.) One multi-color LED. This LED will illuminate red/blue and flash in different modes to indicate changes in the SOUND PLATFORM operational status. SOLID RED – OFF (Standby). The power cord is connected and the AC switch is turned ON, but the SOUND PLATFORM is OFF.

  • SOLID BLUE – ON – JAZZ AUDIO SOUND PLATFORM is ON.
    SINGLE BLUE FLASH – Confirms receiving an IR command from the JAZZ AUDIO SOUND PLATFORM Remote for changes to Treble/Bass, EQ Reset, Simulated Surround (SR), single Volume UP/DOWN command, initiating output of the Bluetooth Connection Code.

  • RAPID BLUE FLASH – Confirms receiving a continuous IR stream from the SOUND PLATFORM Remote for ramping volume UP/DOWN. Rapid blue flash also indicates the SOUND PLATFORM is in Bluetooth pairing mode.

  • SLOW BLUE FLASH – Audio Mute. The audio signal to the speakers is turned OFF.

  • TWO BLUE FLASHES; DELAY – Bluetooth input is selected and no Bluetooth device is connected or it is out of range.

• IR SENSOR – (Behind front panel lens.) The IR Sensor ‘sees’ the IR control commands output from the SOUND PLATFORM IR Remote Control when buttons are pressed on the remote for armchair control of the SOUND PLATFORM. This sensor must be unobstructed for direct line-of-sight to the remote, or the remote will not be able to control the SOUND PLATFORM.
  JAZZ AUDIO SOUND PLATFORM REAR PANEL

• FRONT AND REAR PANEL BASS PORTS – Two pairs of tuned openings in the SOUND PLATFORM cabinet allow air to ‘release’ from the cabinet and enhance low-frequency audio. Allow at least 3 inches of clearance to a back wall to allow air to move freely from the ports for full bass extension.

CONNECTION PANEL

• DIGITAL COAXIAL INPUT – One RCA jack. Connect to the Digital Coaxial OUT on a TV or other source. This input is selected by pressing the COAX button on the SOUND PLATFORM IR Remote. NOTE: The audio output of a TV, Blu-ray Disc player, game console, or DVD player connected to the SOUND PLATFORM via Coaxial Digital must be set to PCM in the source’s setup. Please see the device’s Owner’s Manual for details.
• DIGITAL OPTICAL INPUT – One TOSLINK® connector. Connect to the Digital Optical OUT on a TV or other source. This input is selected by pressing the OPT button on the SOUND PLATFORM IR Remote. NOTE: The audio output of a TV, Blu-ray Disc player, game console, or DVD player connected to the SOUND PLATFORM via Optical Digital, must be set to PCM in the source’s setup. Please see the device’s Owner’s Manual for details.
• AUDIO INPUT – Two RCA jacks. Connect to the L & R Line Level Audio OUT on a TV or other source. This input is selected by pressing the AUX button on the JAZZ AUDIO SOUNF PLATFORM IR Remote.
• POWER – Turns the power to the JAZZ AUDIO SOUND PLATFORM ON/OFF. Always turn the power OFF when making connections to the SOUND PLATFORM. The Front Panel LED will illuminate red to indicate Standby (power switch ON, SOUND PLATFORM turned OFF with IR Remote) or blue to indicate that the SOUND PLATFORM is ON.
• AC INPUT- Universal power connector. Automatically selects AC voltage for a given region. Connect to the included 2-conductor AC Power Cord. After all audio connections have been made and confirmed, plug the power cord into an un-switched AC Outlet to power the SOUND PLATFORM.
• DOWN FIRING SUBWOOFERS – The SOUND SPLATFORM bottom panel features two 5-1/4” subwoofers, one for left channel bass and one for right channel bass. When handling the SOUND PLATFORM, be careful not to grab or hold the cabinet bottom where the woofers are located to prevent damaging the woofers. Also, take care to not set the cabinet down on anything but a flat surface clear of obstructions.

When placing the SOUND PLATFORM on a shelf or stand, be sure there are no objects under the cabinet that will damage or block the woofers and check to make sure there are no objects on the sides of the cabinet that will block the space under the SOUND PLATFORM. Blocking this space will reduce overall bass performance.

Flat Screen TV SOUND Platform A/V Sources

TABLE-TOP INSTALLATION

The SOUND PLATFORM is ideally designed for tabletop installation. In this application, the SOUND PLATFORM is placed on a cabinet top and becomes a pedestal for the TV. Very little space is required beyond what is already used by the TV.

DOWN-FIRING WOOFERS/REAR PORTS

The SOUND PLATFORM should always be placed on a solid surface, maintaining the clearance on the bottom of the unit required for low-frequency sound to freely radiate into the room. Do not place objects next to the SOUND PLATFORM that will block this space. The SOUND PLATFORM has two rear bass ports that enhance low-frequency sounds. These ports should remain unobstructed with a clearance of at least three inches to a back wall to assure proper performance

Note: The TV pedestal should not be larger than the top of the SOUND PLATFORM (28” W x 16” D)

CABINET INSTALLATION

The cabinet top should be at least seventeen inches deep to properly support the SOUND PLATFORM. The SOUND PLATFORM is sixteen and a half inches deep (with grille attached) and extra space will be required between the SOUND PLATFORM and a wall behind the cabinet for cables connecting the SOUND PLATFORM to the TV or other A/V sources (3 inches minimum).

HARDWIRED AUDIO CONNECTIONS

The JAZZ AUDIO SOUND PLATFORM has three hardwired Audio Input connections on the rear panel that can be used for TV audio or connection to other sources such as CD player, a portable music player (that does not have Bluetooth), a computer or any audio source with one of the following output connections.

OPTICAL DIGITAL AUDIO

Connect the Optical Digital Audio OUT on a TV or other sources to the Pro- Connect SOUND PLATFORM Optical Input using a Digital Optical Audio Cable as shown. This Input is selected by pressing the ‘OPT’ button on the included IR Remote. NOTE: The audio output of a TV, Blu-ray Disc player, game console, or DVD player connected to the SOUND PLATFORM via Optical Digital, must be set to PCM in the source’s setup. Digital connection to a CD player does not require a special setting.

COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO

Connect the Optical Digital Audio OUT on a TV or other source to the Pro- Connect SOUND PLATFORM Optical Input using a Digital Optical Audio Cable as shown. This Input is selected by pressing the ‘OPT’ button on the included IR Remote. NOTE: The audio output of a TV, Blu-ray Disc player, game console, or DVD player connected to the SOUND PLATFORM via Optical Digital, must be set to PCM in the source’s setup.
