If you’re looking to connect headphones to your Apple TV streamer device, you’re in luck – it’s a super simple process. However, there are a few things to keep in mind before you start. First, make sure your Apple TV device supports Bluetooth (which, for the most part, they all do). Second, your headphones must also support Bluetooth.

It’s also worth noting that while not a requirement, it’s possible that the audio might be slightly out of sync when you’re watching something. This could be due to the Bluetooth version supported by your headphones. Additionally, your TV or home theater system may still output sound. However, this will depend on how your HDMI port is designed on your TV.

With that said, let’s get started with the setup process. The first thing you need to do is put your headphones in pairing mode. The exact process will vary based on your manufacturer’s setup, so be sure to consult the manual for your specific model.

Next, navigate to the main system settings menu on your Apple TV device. From there, go to remotes and devices and then over to Bluetooth. You should see your headphones listed, and you can simply select them to connect.

And that’s it! Any sound that now outputs will be transferred to your headphones. While the setup process is straightforward, it’s always good to keep in mind the potential issues we mentioned earlier. But with a little bit of troubleshooting, you’ll be able to enjoy audio private listening on your headphones without disturbing anyone around you.
