Troubleshooting
No sound from speakers
Ensure the main speaker is powered on, check all cable connections (including the speaker cable between left and right speakers), verify the correct input source is selected, and confirm the volume is turned up on both the speakers and the source device.
Cannot connect via Wi-Fi
Make sure your Wi-Fi network is operational. Restart your router and the speakers. Ensure you are connecting to a compatible Wi-Fi band (2.4 GHz or 5 GHz) and that the network password is entered correctly in the Audio Pro app.
Bluetooth pairing issues
Ensure the speakers are in Bluetooth pairing mode. Turn off Bluetooth on other nearby devices to avoid interference. Move the source device closer to the speakers and try pairing again.
Poor audio quality or distortion
Check that the volume is not set too high, which can cause distortion. Ensure source files are of good quality. Clean speaker drivers gently if dust buildup is suspected (refer to care instructions).
App not recognizing speakers
Ensure your mobile device and the speakers are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Restart both the app and the speakers. Check for app updates.
