Troubleshooting
System failing to connect to Wi-Fi
Ensure your router is broadcasting a 2.4GHz signal, check your password, and perform a network reset via the system settings.
Audio playback stutters or drops
Check your internet connection stability. If using streaming services, ensure your router is not obstructed and the device is within range of the signal.
No sound from connected external source
Verify that the correct input source is selected on the R3S menu and ensure the cables are securely seated in the aux-in port.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get started, place the R3S on a solid, level surface to ensure optimal speaker dispersion. Connect the power cable and follow the on-screen prompts on the OLED display to join your local Wi-Fi network. For wired connections, utilize the rear aux-in port for turntables or external players, and use the 3.5mm headphone jack for private listening. Keep the unit away from direct heat sources and avoid using chemical cleaning agents; a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth is sufficient to maintain the finish.
