To have the best Active Noise Canceling performance possible, we advise you to keep the earbuds clean as much as possible. In case the IR sensors are covered with dirt of any kind, the Active Noise Cancellation performance will not be as effective. Sometimes, it may not give you the desire outcome to enjoy your music. 

Make sure both headphones are fully charged to ensure that the issue is not due to one of the earbuds lacking power.

Check that the contact points on the headphones and the charging case are clear of dirt, so the issue is not due to the product not being able to charge.

The LED on the headphones will show a blue light when correctly inserted in the charging case.

Try to reset the headphones if the product is fully charged but are still only working in Mono mode.

A reset guide for the headphones can be found here: Reset guide

10 minutes before the time limit has been reached, a voice prompt will be played on the headphones. When reaching the time limit, the volume will be muted, and a new voice prompt will inform that the listening limit has been reached.

LE Audio is the next generation of Bluetooth Audio, making audio streaming over Bluetooth Low Energy possible. It enables new use cases and significantly reduces power consumption compared to Classic (BR/EDR) Audio. LE Audio allows for independently synchronized audio streams to each earbud as well as seamlessly broadcasting audio streams to multiple listeners, with low power consumption. 

JBL QuantumSPHERE 360 is JBL QuantumSURROUND that’s kicked up a notch by using a head-tracking sensor to fix sounds in 360 degrees of space around you. With typical headphones, when you move your head, the soundscape follows your movement. But with JBL QuantumSPHERE 360, if you rotate your head, the sound source’s perceived location stays in place because the head-tracking sensor compensates for your head movement. For example, if there’s a sound coming from in front of you, and you turn your head to the left, the sound source’s perceived location moves to your right ear—the sound stays locked in space as you move your head. 

Also, the human brain uses small head movements to distinguish if sound sources are behind or in front of us. The brain processes the differences between when a sound arrives at the left vs. the right ear to determine where the sound is located. So with JBL QuantumSPHERE 360, you can move your head naturally to pinpoint the exact source of sounds around you. 

Yes, when changing volume to higher or lower, the LED will illuminate to show that you are changing the volume.

This problem is usually caused by pressing down too hard on the soundbar's VOL + or VOL - Buttons. Only press just enough for one click to be felt. If a second click is felt in the button, you are pressing too hard, and you are actually activating the MUTE function for learning, not VOL up or down. You may have to repeatedly let go of the VOL button on the soundbar, followed by pressing it again and then pressing the VOL button on the TV remote before the surround light on the soundbar lights up white and goes back to amber flashing, as a sign that this function has been learned. This is no problem, though. Just keep trying until the three commands have been learned. The soundbar only exits learning mode when you press and hold the surround button as the final step.

• Please check whether your head unit Bluetooth support EDR (Enhanced Data Rate) • If the head unit does not support EDR this will cause the transfer data rate to be low and will impact the audio quality.

The PartyBoost feature is not available when your JBL speaker is connected to a computer via Bluetooth. This is a technical limitation. When connected to a computer, the computer is acting as the primary device. Therefore, the JBL speaker does not have control of re-transmitting the Bluetooth signal to other JBL speakers.

NOTE: Speakers effected by this are the JBL Flip 5, JBL Flip 6, JBL Charge 5, JBL Pulse 4, JBL Xtreme 3, and JBL Boombox 2, as well as future products featuring the PartyBoost feature.

The wireless charge receiver in the smartphone may not be adequately coupled to the wireless charging transmitter on Smartbase. Re-adjust your smart phone’s position on the wireless charge arm.

Some vehicles don’t provide an isolated ground for the head unit which may introduce noise. Please connect your smartphone to JBL DRG and enable the “Aux Noise Cancel” button in the App. This can be found right after Aux Line option in Connection Mode section.

The volume level of the speaker is depends on the level of the source file itself. Some Dolby Atmos Music tracks are made to be quieter, and some louder.

The answer depends on the method used for connecting the Partybox Ultimate units:

 

Multi-Room Music (Airplay/Alexa/Google Home) - No effects or audio samples heard on secondary speaker(s).

Stereo Mode (JBL One app) - Both effects and audio samples heard on secondary speaker.

Multi-Speaker Connection (pressing the relevant buttons on the top panels) - No effects heard, but audio samples heard on secondary speaker(s).

Daisy Chain (wired Aux connection) - Both effects and audio samples heard on secondary speaker(s).

When you have associated two pairs of speakers, the range between primary and secondary speakers (all 3 speakers), will be maximum 10 meters. The range will increase if you only use one pair of speakers (30 meters). We recommend placing the speakers on a high-level surface or shelf, for best possible connection.

You should hear the audible voice stating ‘low battery’ when you have about 20 minutes left of battery life left on the UA WIRELESS headphones. If you have an Apple device, you will actually be able to see the battery life in the upper right hand corner of the device next to the BT symbol.
