How To

Do not worry, pairing both devices is easy and quick. Press the "pairing" button on the back of the Omni Bar, then press "pairing" button on the subwoofer. They will start communicating with each other, and when both devices show white light in the LED on the back, that indicates that they are paired.

Some mobile phones, tablet computers or laptop computers will react to the powerful magnetic field from the loudspeaker drive units that are right beneath the top panel. Some have magnetic sensors built in, which means that covers with magnets in the lid can turn the phone ON when the cover lid is opened, and turn it OFF again when the lid is closed. Such phones may turn off if placed on certain portions of the top panel. Other devices are simply sensitive to magnetic fields. You can move the device around on the top of your L8 or L16 speaker, to check if some locations are better than others. The magnetic fields are most powerful near the front panel, where the speaker units are mounted. If you cannot find a location which works, your particular phone, tablet or laptop cannot be used while resting on the top panel of your speaker. There are no reports of damage to any devices because of this phenomenon.

This is most likely due to CEC function. Some our soundbars supports CEC commands from your TV, and if some CEC commands will make the speaker react in a way you do not like, we suggest you disable all CEC functions from your TV. Please note, that your Soundbar will not turn on when your TV is turned on, due to disabling the CEC function.

Check your audio cables and make sure they are secure. Set the volume of the source device (if applicable) to a higher level.

When you are installing new apps or adding content to your LINK BAR, the system may be a bit slower when dealing with multiple things.
Here is a couple of things you should know.

1. You need a speedy internet connection to download all the content you added.
2. Wait for everything to be finished, then you can enjoy the system without any issues.
3. Reboot LINK BAR after installing all apps. A fresh reboot can help and enhance performance.

If you find yourself encountering audio dropouts or interference coming from your surround speakers when they are not docked on the main unit, here are a couple of tips to try to remedy that.

1. Try moving any wireless routers that are near the sound bar further away.

2. Reboot router so it can auto select a new frequency channel, since the sound bar and router may be on the same channel resulting in audible interferences

3. Re-position the surround speakers so they are closer to the main unit.

4. Re-calibrate the surround speakers

5. Adjust the volume on the sound bar and gradually raise the volume, if driven to hard the sound bar speakers can distort

Yes, rinse it under a faucet or under the shower, but not under full water pressure.

If you are having difficulty with the noise cancelling feature while on your PS4, please check your side tone setting in QuantumENGINE by connecting your Q800 to your PC. Please note that ANC will not work properly if the mic is on and sidetone is greater than 0. We recommend either muting the mic or change the sidetone in the JBL QuantumENGINE to 0. 

We've intentionally designed the flip-up boom mic to stay affixed to the headset. We know from experience that losing or breaking the detachable mic is never fun. Therefore, we designed the mic to fold neatly into the headset - this design also allows the mic to automatically mute when elevated. If you're wanting a detachable mic, please check out the Quantum 100 or the Quantum ONE.

Make sure the headset volume control is turned up. Rotate the volume wheel on your headset to increase the volume. Check that the correct playback device is selected under Control Panel > Sound > Playback. Select the correct device, right-click, and select "Set as Default Device".

- Try to disconnect some devices from your Wi-Fi network. Some routers may have weak performance, which can cause issues and poor connection to all devices in your network. - If your router supports 5Ghz ( 802.11N or AC ) and you have devices that are capable of using 5 GHz Wi-Fi then switch to that specific network for best performance. - If you have a lot of ( Legacy / older than 5 years ) devices on 2.4GHz network, try limiting them to max. 6 connected simultaneously

Yes, this is correct. In order to minimize interference between speaker and microphone during telephone conversations, one speaker unit is deactivated.

Yes, the 8 hours time is for conference calls and music playback, but will of course depend on volume level and music content.

While the speaker provides a single wireless microphone in the box, it has the ability to work with two wireless microphones. Some units will include Mic A, while others will have Mic B. If you are looking to order the second mic, you must first determine which mic you already have.

 

1. Power on the microphone.
2. Long press the Power button. The mic will power off. Keep pressing the button until the mic shows the version.
   1. 6A08 = Mic A. You will want to order Mic B. Part #050100-000014
   2. 6B08 = Mic B. You will want to order Mic A. Part #02-UMI033-XX0
3. Please call 1-800-336-4JBL (4525) to place your order.

Although both speakers have the same tweeter and woofer, because the Arena 170 has a larger cabinet, it will produce deeper bass. This also means that the Arena 170 can handle more power, versus the Arena 130 speakers. Please see product spec. sheet and/or manual for more details.

Every person has different preferences for wall mounting products. Nevertheless, we tried out varies options and found this to be the place for optimal sound performance.

1. Use the included "Wall-mount guide" that came with your LINK BAR.
2. From the down edge of your TV screen, measure 50mm (using the guide for the screws) or 5 cm or 2 inches depending on the country.
3. It will perfectly align the LINK BAR close to your TV and give the best performance.

Also, you won't have to deal with HDMI cables being too short!

These are our recommendation if you want to place it further down, be our guest!
The sound and performance will still be magnificent!

To power on and pair the headphones, remove the ear tips from the charging case. If this is your first time using the headphones, they will automatically go into pairing mode. You will see the blue and red LED light flash on the RIGHT and LEFT ear as it attempts to pair with your device. Make sure your device is in range and BT settings are ON. The JBL True Wireless Flash X should pop up on your list of discoverable devices within 3-5 seconds, tap and connect. Once connected, you will see a slow blinking blue light below the UA logo on the RIGHT and LEFT Ear. This headphone allows you to use the ear tips in Stereo or Mono mode. If you wish to just use the LEFT or RIGHT ear, simply place the ear tip you do not wish to use back in the charging case.

Try a manual pairing of the headset and the dongle.
Hold the power button in the "On" position for 5 seconds on the headset, and then hold the button on the dongle for 5 seconds. This should force a manual pairing, allowing the PC to again recognize the headset.
Be sure to check multiple USB ports (to confirm it’s not an issue with the USB port).
If the dongle can’t be manually paired either, please contact customer support.
 

In most cases when a Computer/PC/Laptop has issues connecting to a Bluetooth device (Portable speaker, Headphones, Active speakers), it's caused by your Computer/PC/Laptop's Bluetooth driver (software).

The driver (software) should support the following Bluetooth protocols, to be able to play music/sound from your Computer/PC/Laptop:

• A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) driver for your Computer/PC/Headphones to transfer music.

• AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile) driver to send skip/forward/pause/play music to your device

Always get the latest driver version available for your Computer/PC/Laptop.

To download the correct driver (software), visit the manufacturer's website of your Computer/PC/Laptop. They usually have a "Support/Download" section where you can find the correct driver. Otherwise, we advise you to contact their support.

Check if the tower and subwoofer’s LEDs are in solid white color. A blinking LED means a disconnection. In this case, hold RESET on the back of the tower or subwoofer for 5 seconds to enter pairing mode. On the touchscreen, tap “Speaker Setup” > “Pairing” > “Tower Setup” or “Subwoofer pairing”, then follow the onscreen instructions to pair with the digital hub again.
