  • QuestionDo these pair easily with an older Samsung tv?

    Asked by Pairing.

    • Answer Hi there! Thanks for reaching out! We are happy to help you with your Sony headphones. The short answer is yes, they should pair up just fine! Our WH-CH720N headphones use standard Bluetooth, which works with most TVs. However, since your TV is an older model, verify if it natively supports wireless audio. For a wireless connection, the TV needs an A2DP profile (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile), which allows it to stream high quality stereo audio to headphones. If your TV lacks built-in Bluetooth, the most reliable alternative is to plug the headphones directly into the TV's headphone jack using a standard 3.5mm audio cable. Feel free to take a look at the following link for more details: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2966/v1/en/contents/TP1000776852.html We hope this helps! Thank you for making Sony part of your purchasing consideration! Best regards, Estefany

  • QuestionDo you need a connection to use the noise canceling function?

    Asked by schooler.

    • Answer Hi schooler, Thanks for the question! Happy to help out. No, you do not need a Bluetooth connection to use the noise canceling function on the Sony WH-CH720N, as the feature can be activated independently simply by turning the headset on. This flexibility allows you to enjoy silence whether you are connected via Bluetooth or using the supplied 3.5mm wired cable. When using the wired mode, the noise canceling remains functional even though Bluetooth is disabled, and you can easily toggle between Noise Canceling and Ambient Sound Mode using the physical NC/AMB button located on the left ear cup.

  • QuestionDoes this headphone be connected to a smart tv?

    Asked by Snowy.

    • Answer Thank you for contacting Sony, Snowy. Yes, your WH-CH720N headphones can definitely be connected to a smart TV as long as your TV supports Bluetooth audio (A2DP profile). Most modern smart TVs have this capability, allowing you to enjoy your movies and shows wirelessly with the added benefit of Sony's noise-canceling technology. Just put your headphones into pairing mode and look for them in your TV's Bluetooth settings menu to get started! We appreciate your interest in Sony products.

  • QuestionCan these headphones pair with a Visio television

    Asked by Dale.

    • Answer Hi Dale! Thanks for the question! We're happy to assist you with this. The main thing to check is your specific TV model. While our WH-CH720N headphones work with Bluetooth, your TV needs to support a specific feature called the A2DP profile to send audio to headphones. Most newer smart TVs have this, but some older ones don't. To be sure, we recommend checking your TV's manual or specs list. If you’re still not sure, it’s a great idea to reach out to their support team for assistance.

  • QuestionWill these mute the TV speakers while using

    Asked by Kip.

    • Answer Hello Kip, Thank you for considering Sony products! We appreciate your inquiry about the Sony WH-CH720N headphones and are happy to assist you. When you connect these headphones to your TV via Bluetooth, the TV typically prompts you to switch the audio output to the headphones. Selecting "Yes" usually mutes the internal speakers, allowing you to enjoy audio through the headphones without external sound. Please note that this behavior depends on your TV's settings and may vary by model. Best regards, -Fred

  • QuestionWhat is the Noise Reduction Rating number ?

    Asked by NRRnumber.

    • Answer Thank you for contacting Sony. The WH-CH720N does not have an official Noise Reduction Rating. This is because NRR is a specific certification for industrial hearing protection equipment, whereas these are consumer headphones designed for entertainment. While they feature our Integrated Processor V1 to effectively cancel ambient noise for a better listening experience, they are not rated for use as safety gear in high-decibel environments.

  • QuestionCan one person use the headphones while watching tv and hear the program and another in the room also still hear?

    Asked by Lori.

    • Answer Hi Lori, Thank you for your question regarding the Sony WH-CH720N. Whether one person can listen through the headphones while others hear the program through the TV speakers depends entirely on the specific capabilities of your television. The WH-CH720N headphones are designed to receive high-quality Bluetooth audio; however, many TVs automatically mute their internal speakers once a Bluetooth device is connected. To achieve your goal, your television must support simultaneous multi-audio output (the ability to output sound to Bluetooth and TV speakers at the same time). We recommend checking your television’s user manual or contacting the TV manufacturer to confirm if 'Multi-Audio Output' is a supported feature in their settings menu. If your TV does not support this natively, you may need an external Bluetooth transmitter with a bypass mode to enable both audio sources at once. We hope this information helps! Thank you for considering Sony. Best regards, Dominick
