QuestionWill these speakers connect via Bluetooth with the Jamo sound bar I already have , I’m trying to add rear sound coming from the back side of living room as we’re sitting watching a movie , is there another way to achieve this if these speakers don’t
Asked 7 years ago by Clem.
- Answer I was unsuccessful paring these to my Vizio sound bar so I would say no as sound bars are typically manufactured the same way in regards to technology.

QuestionI have these speakers hooked up to my turn table via RCA cables. I am not sure if I am just going def but it seems the volume does not get up there like it should. I could be placement of the unit as well. Just wondering if anyone else had this issue.
Asked 7 years ago by Kari.
- Answer You may need a PYLE - PylePro Ultra Compact Phono Turntable Pre-Amplifier - Black from Best Buy if your rca cables coming from the turntable have a ground wire that is currently unconnected. Plug the rca's from the turntable into the "input" and make sure to screw the ground wire to the "12 volt ground." You will need an additional set of rca cables to go from the preamp "output" to the speakers. The preamp is kind of like an interpreter. The turntable is speaking in phono and the speakers only hear in stereo.

QuestionCan these work with a turntable?
Asked 7 years ago by Tmr.
- Answer You may need a "mini phono preamp" if your turntable has rca cables with a ground wire. It is important for the ground wire to be connected to the ground screw on your preamp for you to get the desired sound. PYLE - PylePro Ultra Compact Phono Turntable Pre-Amplifier - Black is one that Best Buy sells for $22.99 in my area. I have a Yamaha YD-P8 turn table from the 70s and I use the Pyle preamp. The Pyle works well.

QuestionWill the TV remote control volume, power and pause when connected via Bluetooth?
Asked 7 years ago by Teeda.
- Answer It should be possible, but most of the times it will depend on the source the speaker is connected to, sometimes you will need to control the volume on both devices independently. If you have more questions please give us a call at 1-877-467-4289 and one of us will answer your questions. Ruben- Insignia support.

QuestionMy right speaker doesn’t seem to work it used to work before and now it doesn’t want to work. The connections are good I double checked them what could be the problem?
Asked 7 years ago by Johnwonton.
- Answer How are you connecting to the speakers? I would check that input source to be sure it is providing both channels. If it is, then perhaps the speaker is failing.

QuestionI bought this Speakers, they worked really great and i liked the sound. BUT i lost the remote - how do i change the mode from power(solid RED) to AUX (blinking green) to Bluetooth (Blue) without the remote ? or can i buy its remote separately ?
Asked 8 years ago by Sam.
- Answer the volume dial also acts as a switch/button, press it in and i believe it will allow alternate source choices and I think activate bluetooth if held or pressed twice?. Definitely check the documentation, I threw mine out, but I recall a description of this functionality there. I assume it can be downloaded or found somewhere online if you cant figure it out.
