How To Connect Soundbar to TV Using Bluetooth

Last Update date : Aug 03. 2022

Even though the TV has its own internal speakers, external speakers can produce better sound. That's why people use a Soundbar and Home Cinema system. Connect your external audio device and enjoy better sound.

Connect your Soundbar through Bluetooth


A Bluetooth connection does not provide the same sound quality as HDMI, but it's been loved because of its advantage of being wireless. The main challenge with Bluetooth is that the connection can be unstable due to external factors like a power outage or other electrical devices. Follow the steps below to connect your external speakers through Bluetooth.
 

Step 1. Press the Home button on your remote control to bring up the Smart Hub and then select Settings.
