FAQs

To connect two Bluetooth headphones simultaneously to a PS5, use a dual-link USB Bluetooth adapter like the Avantree DG80 or C81. Plug the adapter into the PS5 USB port, then pair each Bluetooth headphone with the adapter. This allows both headphones to receive audio simultaneously, perfect for shared gaming sessions.
2. What Bluetooth adapters are recommended for connecting two headphones to PS5?
The Avantree DG80 (USB) and Avantree C81 (USB Type-C) adapters are recommended. They support dual-link capability, allowing two Bluetooth headphones to connect at once. Both work with PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and PCs, providing low-latency audio for gaming without lag.
3. Will I experience audio lag when using Bluetooth headphones with these adapters on PS5?
Using headphones that support aptX Low Latency or FastStream Bluetooth codecs with these adapters minimizes audio lag, ensuring audio and video stay synchronized. Without these codecs, some delay may occur, but the adapters are optimized for gaming to reduce latency as much as possible.
4. Can I use the microphone on Bluetooth headphones connected via these adapters on PS5?
Currently, these Bluetooth adapters do not support microphone input on gaming consoles like the PS5. You can listen to game audio on the headphones, but voice chat requires a separate microphone, such as the PS5 controller mic.
5. How do I set up the Bluetooth adapter and headphones on PS5 for the best audio experience?
Plug the Bluetooth adapter into the PS5 USB port, put your headphones into pairing mode, and wait for connection. Then, in PS5 settings, set the audio output device to the adapter. For best sound quality, switch the adapter to music mode if available, as talk mode may reduce audio fidelity.
