Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
Already linked supplied front speakers interrupt while the center remains continuous; actual Wireless Playback Quality is available and not Priority on Stable Connection.
Connection scope: Device controls / power only. Symptom: Audio keeps cutting out.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at step-0. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
step-0
Are interruptions confined to the already linked supplied front speakers while the center unit remains continuous?
A lost media sender or completely unlinked red front unit has another procedure.
Look for: Confirm the actual prerequisite or observation. Stop safely if unknown.
- If Yes, confirmed → Is Wireless Playback Quality available and currently not Priority on Stable Connection?
- If No → Stop at the unconfirmed condition
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

step-1
Is Wireless Playback Quality available and currently not Priority on Stable Connection?
Confirm the actual app setting; phone Bluetooth Connection Quality is a different transport.
Look for: Confirm the actual prerequisite or observation. Stop safely if unknown.
