This post shows how to pair the Sony Cube Speaker personal Bluetooth speaker with common portable devices. E.g. These include the iPhone, iPod Touch, and the iPad line of Apple phones, media players, and tablets.
With your cube powered OFF (power button is dark), run through these directions to pair it to your source BT mobile device. We’re using an iPad Air computer for this demo.
Firstly, press the Home button to reveal the smart device’s Home screen.
We found ours on the second page of the Home screen, as shown next.
Thirdly, touch the Settings app icon.
The smart device then shows the first page of its settings, as shown in the next step.
Our Bluetooth Settings screen displays as follows. Note that our Bluetooth is enabled here. But since our cube is currently shut OFF (is not in Bluetooth discovery mode), it does not show up in the Bluetooth devices list. Also, we don’t see it since we’ve never paired this speaker with our mobile device before.
Turn on the cube by quickly pressing its Power button. See this, pointed at by the green arrow, in the next picture.
The speaker then powers up, and its status lamp glows green, as seen in the next picture.
But since our iPad does not know about this speaker, the cube will not pair with it automatically.
Now, to see your Sony Cube Speaker on your device, place it into Bluetooth discovery / pairing mode. To do that, press and hold the Power-Pairing button. Release the button when the speaker makes two high beep sounds, and the status lamp starts fast flashing white. Usually takes two to three seconds to enter pairing mode. Find the Power-Pairing button as shown above.
See the screen shot next. We found the test speaker, as pointed at by the yellow arrow.
Tap the listed speaker in the discovered devices list.
Your mobile device then connects with the cube.
E.g. The the mobile device’s Bluetooth Settings screen might then change to look something like the following. Note the now-connected cube entry, as pointed at by the green arrows in the next screenshot.
At last, we have now successfully paired the cube with with a common mobile tablet device.
