FAQs

Q: Why can I not pair my Bluetooth device?
A: Occasionally the Bluetooth may need to be reset on your G-MEGA, and/or your Bluetooth streaming device(s).
First, you will need to go into the Bluetooth settings menu on your audio streaming device and delete / ‘forget this device’ from the list completely.
Next, you will need to clear the Bluetooth memory on your G-MEGA which can be done by pressing and holding the BLUETOOTH PAIR button for 3 seconds or until the blue LED starts blinking, indicating that G-MEGA is searching for a compatible Bluetooth device.
Now with your Bluetooth streaming device and G-MEGA, both powered on, try searching for compatible devices under the Bluetooth settings menu of your audio streaming device. After a few seconds, it should detect G-MEGA, at which time you can select “G-MEGA ” and establish a new connection.

Q: How can play my G-MEGA as loud as possible?
A: When using Bluetooth or Line-In as the audio source, the volume of playback depends on both the volume that G-MEGA is set to as well as the volume on your connected device. To play at the loudest volume, please turn the volume up on both G-MEGA and your connected device.
Note that with Line-In playback, maximizing the volume may cause distortion during playback.
