FAQ
Below are some of the most common questions people have during setup.
Can I have audio through my TV's speakers and wireless headphones at the
same time?
This completely depends on whether or not your TV supports the ability to output
audio to 2 sources simultaneously. You can try a few dierent methods to test if
your TV is capable of this or not - please refer to avantree.com/41866/sound for
more details.
What’s the best way to take care of & maintain upkeep for my earbuds?
Regularly cleaning your earbuds before and after use not only protects them from
potential damage, but also helps eliminate sound muing issues. You can use dry
cotton swabs or similar to gently wipe dust, earwax, and oil from the earbud tips
on a regular basis in order to maintain upkeep.
