General questions
Question 1: Where can I find internet
radio?
≥ TuneIn offers you free access to a
wide range of internet radio stations
from all over the world.
For radio stations which are tailored
specifically to your own taste of music,
try the music service Last.fm (registration
is required but allows you a non-binding
test period and 30 free music titles).
Question 2: Can I try out the music
services Napster and simfy?
≥ The music services Napster and simfy
each offer a 30-day test period of their
premium service, during which you can
listen to all titles available from that
provider in full and for free. The test
period is absolutely non-binding, you do
not enter into any obligation. For simfy,
you need to register to make use of the
test period, while Napster offers an
anonymous test period.
Question 3: What is an active and a
passive speaker?
≥ The active speaker is the one which
contains the amplifiers for both spea-
kers (Master-Box). It also includes the
power connection and Wi-Fi antenna.
The passive speaker (Slave-Box) is
connected to the active speaker via a
speaker wire.
Question 4: My Raumfeld Speaker does
not appear under “Line In”. What could
be the reason for this?
≥ Raumfeld playback devices are only
displayed on the Controller or in the
Raumfeld App under the application
“Line In” if they are ready to transmit an
analogue audio signal to other rooms.
The following requirements must be
fulfilled:
• The device needs to be set up and
connected to the Raumfeld system
(both LEDs light up).
• The device is being run in “strea-
ming” mode. You can find related
instructions in the online manual.
System requirements
Question 1: What system requirements
need to be in place?
• Your Wi-Fi router must have DHCP
enabled.
• IP-addresses should be distributed
to new devices automatically.
If this is not the case, look into the
administration software of your
router and make sure all Raum-
feld devices are assigned a fixed IP
address.
• If you are setting up a system
without the Raumfeld Base (see
page 13), your Raumfeld devices
are connected with your own Wi-Fi
network. In this case, your Wi-Fi
router needs to transmit in the
frequency band 2.4 GHz (802.11g)
and has to be WPA/WPA2-
encrypted or unencrypted.
