Q: QuestionI want to connect wireless headphones to my Bravia 3 Sony smart tv. I have a Sony soundbar but I see that the Bravia 3 does not have a headphone jack
Asked by Domenic.
- A:Answer Hi Domenic, The Sony BRAVIA 3 does not feature a traditional 3.5mm physical headphone jack, as it is designed to prioritize modern wireless connectivity. To connect your wireless headphones, you can pair them directly to the TV via Bluetooth. Since this TV supports the A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile), it is capable of sending high-quality stereo sound wirelessly to Bluetooth-compatible devices. To begin the process, simply set your headphones to "Pairing Mode" and navigate to the Settings menu on your BRAVIA 3. From there, select Remotes & Accessories, then Pair accessory to locate and connect your headphones. Once paired, the TV will transmit the audio directly to your headset. We hope you find this information helpful, and thanks for choosing Sony! Regards, Dominick
