General information about WiSA:

\nWiSA is a wireless system designed specifically for audio and speakers. An audio system that incorporates WiSA technology has it's own internal wireless system. It is capable of doing 96kHz/24bit audio with an audio latency of only 5ms, virtually undetectable by the human ear.

For more information on WiSA technology, please go to the official WiSA website.

If a product is WiSA Certified, it can be used with any other WiSA certified product. For example a WiSA Ready TV with at transmitter.
Note: The overall sound quality is dependent on the processing and setup in the WiSA TV & transmitter, and may result in a performance (EQ, crossover and levels) not intended by the speaker manufacturer. To be sure that the Citation products sound the best, use a Citation Bar product as the main "hub".\n

Current WiSA Certified products:

\nCitation Surrounds
Citation Sub
Citation Sub S
Citation Towers\n

Current products making use of WiSA technology:

\nCitation Bar
Citation Multibeam 700
HK surround\n

Limitations:

\nWiSA does not offer 3D audio formats like Dolby Atmos, and DTS:X yet, so at the moment it is limited to 5.1 or 7.1 Dolby Digital. So regardless of which brand of WiSA speaker you choose, Dolby Atmos will not be available yet.","Answer__c":"

Daily Care instructions for Citation speakers fabric (wool)

\n\n

Daily care and immediate stain removal will ensure that your Harman/Kardon Citation wool upholstery will keep looking good for many years.
Never use undiluted cleaning agents, bleaching agents, ammonia or soap intended for hard surfaces, as this may damage the fabric and Citation speaker itself!

\nMany types of stain can be removed using warm water with a microfiber cloth (not too wet). \n\n

Stain removal guide

\n\n

If you act quickly with any stains on your Citation device then it is not difficult to remove or avoid any spill/stains.
Here is how to do it.

\n\n

1. First, soak up the liquid with an absorbent napkin or Microfiber cloth.
2. For dried stains use a spoon to roughen the surface. \n\t
   1. To avoid the stain spreading further start from the edge of the stain working towards the middle.
   \n\t
3. WARNING!\n\t
   1. Be careful when using solvents, because these could dissolve the upholstery material beneath.
   \n\t

\n\n

Regular and normal cleaning

\n\n

Vacuum frequently every week is the best way to keep the Harman/Kardon Citation fabric intact or use a varm wet Microfiber cloth.
When using a vacuum cleaner, remember to set the power to half which is most appropriated to use for Citation devices (this will not harm the design or fabric).
 

\n\n

General information

\n\n

These tips are purely recommendations and cannot guarantee 100% stain removal on your Harman/Kardon Citation device.
In all cases, we recommend contacting a professional cleaning company, particularly for bigger stains and for thorough cleaning the wool fabric and speaker.
HARMAN do not have any recommended companies or partners to redirect any customers too.

The Checklist

\n\n

Let us walk-through a list of things needed to ensure every requirement is met.

\n\n

1. Check your mobile device if that is able to connect to same Wireless network.
2. Make sure you are within range of your Wireless router.
3. Check the Wireless signal on your mobile device, does it have a weak signal then move closer to the router.
4. Try both Wireless network bands 2.4GHz and 5GHz in case one of them are failing.\n\t
   1. You will have longer range with 2.4GHz, but less performance and most of the times a crowded network (many devices are using 2.4GHz band).
   2. You will have less interference with 5GHz and higher performance, however, the range of the 5GHz network has shorter range.
   \n\t
5. Try using a different mobile device, if you have one.
6. Reboot your Wireless network router and your mobile device.

Wireless Network Extender

\n\n

Some houses or apartments can be too big for one Wireless network router to cover it all.
Let's talk about the issues that might appear with an Extender network.

\n\n

1. Network Extenders that will help cover poor signal in your home, often results in poor connection and low speed performance.
2. Often the Network Extender is a low budget device or not suited for having too many devices attached to it.
3. Placement of the speaker is crucial as you can put it in a place where it could connect to either main Wireless router or the Extender, that will confuse Wireless network devices.
4. To solve this issue, try move the speaker closer to main router or have fewer devices attached to your Wireless Extender.
5. In addition, always use 5GHz connection between your Network extender and main router (best solution and performance).

\n\n

One Wireless Network Name (SSID)

\n\n

1. You may have set the Wireless Network SSID (Wi-Fi network name) to one big Wireless network (With a main router + Extender(s).
2. If the JBL LINK device is within range of both Wireless networks (Main router & Extender) then it can get confused with which one to connect to.
3. To solve this issue, using two different name for your extended network will help with the performance of the JBL LINK Speaker and Google Assistant request.
