Pair old PS-WH751 Subwoofer to new series Soundbar Q70R

[vantheshark]

Hi all,

I tried to pair the subwoofer PS-WH751 I got from Marketplace with both my newer series soundbars but unsuccessful.

I've tried all the ID Set tricks from youtube but after pressing the Mute or Up button and saw the ID Set appear on the soundbar, it still doesn't connect with the sub.

I guess the sub is way too old so it could be a compatible issue, but posting a question here hopefully to see if anyone has attempted to do the same thing.

I've tried with 2 Soundbars: Q70R & HW-A450/XY Series 😔

If it is a bluetooth version issue I suggest you Google " convert bluetooth version ?4 to 5.1. Advice is that bluetooth is backwards compatible but I had very old headphones for which it was not. To start, identify the bluetooth version of your subwoofer by Googling. Note the features of such a connection will be those in the old version, i.e. speed, features, etc. be those of the lower version.

Hi mate, thanks for the response.

I've try to google it, I think the Bluetooth version for my subwoofer is 4.0.

I don't have the soundbar, only the Subwoofer hence I'm afraid there is no way to upgrade the bluetooth version by upgrading firmware.

I replied to @Troubadour, unless you know how to upgrade firmware for the Subwoofer without it's original soundbar, let me know 😄
