Speaker Orientation

For best wireless performance, the antenna side of the Omni speaker should always face the Stream.

How to Identify the Antenna Side

The antenna is located behind the side featuring the Spottune logo.

When mounting the speaker:

  • Ensure the Spottune logo faces towards the Stream whenever possible.

  • This helps maximize wireless signal strength and system reliability.


Best Practices

To achieve optimal performance:

  • Mount antennas on the Stream correctly.

  • Point the Omni logo side towards the Stream.

  • Use zones to separate areas when required.

  • Keep firmware updated when new releases become available.

  • Ensure speakers are paired successfully before installation is completed.

Following these recommendations will help ensure reliable wireless audio performance throughout your Spottune installation.
