Best Ways to Connect External Speakers to Your Itel Smart TV
The good thing is, your Itel Smart TV is designed to support multiple audio output options, ensuring flexibility in connecting external audio devices. Below are the most effective ways to get the best audio performance.
- How to Connect a Soundbar to Itel Smart TV via Bluetooth
One of the easiest and most convenient ways to connect external audio devices to your Itel Smart TV is via Bluetooth. This method allows you to keep your setup clean and free of unnecessary cables while enjoying high-quality wireless sound.
Steps to connect your Bluetooth soundbar or speakers:
- First, ensure your Itel Smart TV and soundbar or Bluetooth speakers are powered on and placed within range.
- On your Itel Smart TV, navigate to the Settings menu and select Sound or Bluetooth Settings (depending on your TV model).
- Turn on Bluetooth and search for available devices.
- Put your soundbar or external speakers in pairing mode. This usually involves holding the Bluetooth button on the device for a few seconds until the LED indicator starts blinking.
- When your soundbar or speakers appear in the list of available devices, select them to pair.
- Once paired successfully, the TV’s audio will be routed through the external device. Test it by playing a video or song.
If you experience any issues with connectivity, ensure your TV firmware is up to date and that no other Bluetooth devices are interfering with the pairing process. Also, some soundbars might require a manual switch to Bluetooth mode before they can connect.
- How to Use HDMI ARC for Better Audio on Itel Smart TV
If you’re the one who prefer high-quality sound without any delay, HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) is the best option. It provides superior audio quality and allows you to control both your TV and sound system with a single remote.
Steps to connect via HDMI ARC:
- Locate the HDMI port labeled HDMI ARC on your Itel Smart TV. Not all HDMI ports support ARC, so ensure you’re using the correct one.
- Plug one end of a high-speed HDMI cable into the HDMI ARC port on your TV and the other end into the HDMI ARC port on your soundbar or AV receiver.
- On your TV, go to Settings > Sound and enable HDMI ARC or CEC Control (Consumer Electronics Control) to allow audio output through the external device.
- If your soundbar has an external power source, ensure it is turned on.
- Play a video or audio file to check if the sound is coming from your external speakers.
HDMI ARC eliminates the need for multiple cables and provides better synchronization between video and audio, making it an ideal choice for home theater setups. If your soundbar supports eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel), you may experience even better sound quality with formats like Dolby Atmos.
- How to Connect External Speakers to Itel Smart TV Without Bluetooth
In case your speakers or sound system do not have Bluetooth functionality, you can still connect them using alternative wired methods. The two most common ways are via AUX cable (3.5mm jack) and Optical (TOSLINK) cable.
Using AUX Cable (3.5mm Jack):
- Locate the headphone or AUX out port on your Itel Smart TV.
- Plug one end of the AUX cable into the TV’s audio out port and the other end into the AUX input of your external speakers.
- Go to your TV’s Sound Settings and select Audio Output to External Speakers.
- Adjust the speaker volume using either the TV remote or the speaker’s built-in controls.
Using Optical (TOSLINK) Cable:
- If your Itel Smart TV has an Optical Out (SPDIF or TOSLINK) port, connect an optical cable to this port and the corresponding port on your soundbar or AV receiver.
- Change the TV’s audio output settings to Optical Out.
- Some soundbars require manual switching to Optical mode—check the user manual for instructions.
Both AUX and Optical connections ensure stable sound transmission without interference, but Optical provides better quality since it supports digital audio signals. If you’re using a home theater system, Optical is the preferred choice for a richer sound experience.
