Q: QuestionCan I listen to TV with this wearable speaker while others in room listen through sound bar at same time?

Asked 1 year ago by Susan.

• A:Answer Hi Susan, Thank you so much for your inquiry regarding our BRAVIA Theater U Wearable TV Speaker. To listen to your TV using both the HT-AN7 and a soundbar simultaneously, you would need to use specific connection setups. The best way to achieve this is through the TV's optical port for one of the audio devices. Here are the steps: - Connect the Soundbar: Use a digital optical cable to connect your soundbar directly to the digital optical out port of the TV. This is essential because connecting via HDMI or Bluetooth will restrict the TV from outputting audio to multiple devices simultaneously. - Connect the HT-AN7: pair it with the TV as normal. Ensure that the TV is set to output audio via the optical connection for the soundbar and Bluetooth for the HT-AN7. By setting it up this way, you should be able to have the sound output through both devices simultaneously.

Q: QuestionCan i use this device and also have sound thru Sony Bravia TV

Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer Hi there, Yes, certain Sony BRAVIA TV models, including the BRAVIA 9 (XR90), BRAVIA 8 (XR80), BRAVIA 7 (XR70), and A95L series, support simultaneous audio output from both the TV speakers and Bluetooth audio devices. This means you can have sound playing from the TV speakers and a connected Bluetooth device, such as the HTAN7, at the same time. To set this up, follow these steps: Connect your Bluetooth audio device to the TV. On the TV remote control, press the Quick Settings button. Navigate to the Speakers menu. Select either TV Speakers or an audio system connected to the TV. Please note that the setup method may vary depending on the specific TV model. For detailed instructions, you can refer to the BRAVIA Connectivity Guide or the TV's user manual. If you encounter any issues, ensure that your TV and audio device have the latest software updates. I hope this helps! Regards, Carl

Q: QuestionCan this be connected to a non Bluetooth t.v. ? Or can you convert a t.v. to Bluetooth?

Asked 2 months ago by Skis.

• A:Answer Hi Ski, Yes, you can certainly use the BRAVIA Theater U Wearable with a TV that does not have built-in Bluetooth. You have two primary ways to make this connection: 1. Wired Connection (Included) The BRAVIA Theater U Wearable comes supplied with an audio cable. You can connect this cable directly from the headphone jack (3.5mm) of your TV to the wearable speaker for an immediate wired setup. 2. Wireless Conversion (Optional Transmitter) If you prefer a wireless experience, you can "convert" your TV to Bluetooth by using the Sony WLA-NS7 Wireless Transmitter. This device connects to your TV’s Optical digital output. It then transmits the audio signal wirelessly via Bluetooth to your BRAVIA Theater U Wearable. We hope you find this information helpful, and thanks for considering Sony! Regards, Dominick
