Troubleshooting
Issue Suggestion
No sound is heard. 1) Check power connection. If there is no flashing or solid blue LED, the speaker is not turned on.
2) Make sure the correct Bluetooth device is connected. If needed, double-click BT button to disconnect
and then reconnect from the Bluetooth device.
3) Increase volume level using the remote.
4) Check volume level on Bluetooth device and make sure no mute function is activated.
5) If no sound is heard from all previously connected secondary speakers, reactivate Transmitter Mode by
pressing TX button once on main unit.
6) If no sound is heard from specific previously connected secondary speaker, reactivate Receiver Mode by
pressing RX button once on the impacted unit.
Sound/connection
is
intermittent.
1) Keep Bluetooth device (smartphone, tablet, etc.) at a stationary location. Signal can easily become
unstable if the Bluetooth device is moving (I.E: inside a pocket while walking).
2) Move Bluetooth device closer to main unit.
3) Disconnect and reconnect Bluetooth device.
4) Move away from (or remove) any nearby electronic device that may present signal interference (I.E:
router, microwave, TV, etc.)
5) You may improve signal connection by slightly elevating the speaker.
6) If intermittent sound only impacts specific secondary speaker, move that speaker closer to main unit.
Speaker not responding
to remote.
1) Check remote battery.
2) Find IR node on speaker and aim remote directly.
3) Move remote closer to speaker before aiming.
4) Provide shielding if direct sunlight is hitting on the path of the infrared signal.
Cannot setting up
broadcast mode
1) Make sure no Bluetooth device is connected except to the main unit. You can disconnect any connected
device by double-clicking the BT button on any secondary speaker.
2) First activate the respective broadcast mode by pressing the
TX/RX
button only once before
double-clicking the TX/RX button to initiate broadcast connection.
3) Move secondary speaker closer to main unit during set up.
4) Make sure to initiate the connection setup within the 30-seconds window. Ask a second person to help

The B series speaker can be installed in-ground or surface-mounted. In-ground installation is generally optimal
since burying speaker in-ground will enhance its resonance, providing a fuller audio experience. When mounted
on a surface, please ensure the wiring is safely secured and does not become a tripping
hazard. The optimal burial depth is 1 inch exposure from ground level for the bottom section.
System should be fully tested above surface before speakers and wires are buried.
To clean speaker, you can rinse with fresh water from directly above the speaker and wipe with
a cloth. If needed use mild detergent to remove dirt.
