What techs run into most, and what's usually behind it. The step-by-step fix for your exact unit is in Ask Roadie.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
Bluetooth AUDIO will not pair with a phone/source
Likely cause: The speaker only advertises as discoverable during the BT Audio Pairing loading window; pairing attempts outside that window fail.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
Constant hum or buzz when connected to a mixer/source
Likely cause: Balanced cabling rejects induced noise; correcting gain staging and ground loops removes the injected hum without unsafe mains lifts.

How to update firmware / current version
Likely cause: Firmware is delivered only through Pro Connect; matching versions across units avoids link/preset mismatches.

Speaker in a weird/corrupted state, bad EQ from app, or needs factory reset
Likely cause: A factory reset clears corrupted DSP/EQ/preset state (a known cause of unexplained hiss/buzz after app edits) and returns the unit to defaults.

Spec quick reference (EON710 / EON712 / EON715 / EON718S)

Want two speakers to play a wireless stereo pair
