In this article, we'll show you how to connect JBL headphones to a TV using a variety of different methods. We'll also cover some troubleshooting tips in case you're having any trouble.

Connecting JBL Headphones to TV Using Bluetooth

If your TV has Bluetooth capabilities, you can connect your JBL headphones to it wirelessly. To do this, follow these steps:

Put your JBL headphones into pairing mode. This process will vary depending on the model of headphones you have. Consult your headphones' manual for instructions.
On your TV, go to the Bluetooth settings menu. This menu will also vary depending on the model of TV you have. Consult your TV's manual for instructions.
Turn on Bluetooth and scan for available devices.
When your JBL headphones appear in the list of available devices, select them.
If prompted, enter the pairing code for your headphones. The default pairing code is usually 0000.

Once your headphones are paired with your TV, you should hear a confirmation sound. You can now start using your headphones to listen to the audio from your TV.

Connecting JBL Headphones to TV Using a Cable

If your TV does not have Bluetooth capabilities, or if you're having trouble connecting your headphones wirelessly, you can connect them using a cable. To do this, you will need a 3.5mm audio cable.

Connect one end of the 3.5mm audio cable to the headphone jack on your JBL headphones.
Connect the other end of the 3.5mm audio cable to the audio output jack on your TV.
On your TV, go to the audio settings menu. This menu will also vary depending on the model of TV you have. Consult your TV's manual for instructions.
Select the audio output jack that you connected the 3.5mm audio cable to.

Once you have selected the correct audio output jack, you should be able to hear the audio from your TV through your headphones.

Connecting JBL Headphones to TV Using a Transmitter

If your TV does not have Bluetooth capabilities and you don't want to use a cable, you can use a transmitter to connect your JBL headphones to your TV wirelessly.

A transmitter is a device that sends the audio signal from your TV to your headphones wirelessly. To use a transmitter to connect your JBL headphones to your TV, follow these steps:

Connect the transmitter to the audio output jack on your TV.
Put your JBL headphones into pairing mode.
Pair your JBL headphones with the transmitter. This process will vary depending on the model of transmitter you have. Consult your transmitter's manual for instructions.

Once your JBL headphones are paired with the transmitter, you should be able to hear the audio from your TV through your headphones.
