Re: Using Spark as a bluetooth speaker with a laptop?

Hi,

It was mentioned on another post on the forum that we need to pair "Spark 40 Audio" with windows in order to have the spark as a bluetooth audio output.

However, I was not able to find "Spark 40 Audio" when searching for the bluetooth devices.
I only could find "Spark 40 BLE", which can be paired but doesn't act as an audio output.

Any idea how I can manage to get the "Spark 40 Audio", or get the spark as an bluetooth audio output for windows?

Thanks

@tradmohamedamine Might your Spark40 Audio connection to your smart phone or tablet have been made the instant you turned the amp on? The Spark 40 BLE connection is only made when the Spark app is running on a device, so that would have been available to connect with bluetooth on your windows machine, but if the Spark 40 Audio connection was previously made with a device then it would not be available. The best way to do what you wish is to open the bluetooth app on whatever device(s) you may already have connected the Spark 40 Audio with and have that (those) devices "forget" the Spark 40 Audio connection. Then check with the bluetooth connection on your windows connection and see if it's available.
