Want to connect your Bang & Olufsen Bluetooth Wireless Headphones to your TV and listen to TV through them?
No problem! There are TWO ways to do it.
If your TV has built-in Bluetooth capability

2. Go into your TV's Bluetooth menu, search & select your B&O Headphone to connect.
3. You may adjust volume via your TV's remote control.

With these, you'll be able to:

- Connect up to TWO PAIRS of headphones to your TV (adapter) simultaneously.
