There are several options to connect your PS5 to your Woojer Vest Edge. Choose the right option for you, which depends on your specific hardware and needs:
Connecting the Woojer Vest Edge to the PS5 USB output
Connecting the Woojer Vest Edge to the PS5 controller
Connecting the Woojer Vest Edge to the front USB port
Connecting the Woojer Vest Edge to your TV set
Note: Connecting your Woojer Vest Edge to your TV with the TV's internal Bluetooth can cause a significant delay and therefore isn't recommended.
Please refer to the below sections to choose the right connection type for you.
USB connection
For this type of connection, you'll need a Type-C to Type-A USB cable.
Note: If the audio signal coming out of the PS5 USB isn't strong enough, you should consider the other connection options.
- Connect the Type-A end of the USB cable to the PS5 console USB port.
- Connect the Type-C end of the USB cable to the Vest's Type-C input.
- Connect your headphones to the Vest's headphone jack.
- Go to the sound settings of your PS5. Make sure the output device is configured correctly
- Make sure the PS5 output volume is set to max.
Wired Connection, using the DualSense controller
- Connect the Vest Edge to the PS5 controller, using the provided 3.5mm cable. One end to the controller's output jack and the other to Vest's audio-in jack.
- Connect your headphone to the Vest's headphone jack.
- If you'd like to use the PS5 in-voice chat channel, you should connect your Vest to the PS5 controller using a TRRS (4 pins) cable, like the one that comes with your Vest.
Wired Connection, using an HDMI audio extractor
- Connect your PS5 HDMI output to an HDMI audio extractor.
- Connect your TV to the HDMI audio extractor.
- Connect your Vest to the extractor analog output, using a 3.5mm cable.
- Connect your headphone to the Vest's headphone jack.
Wireless connection, using a low-latency USB Bluetooth transmitter
Connect a low-latency Bluetooth transmitter to the PS5 USB port.
Pair your Vest with the Bluetooth transmitter. Refer to the transmitter's manual for pairing instructions.
Connecting your headphones: We recommend that you connect your wired headphones directly to your Vest. Alternatively, if your Bluetooth transmitter is a dual-link one, you can pair both the Vest and your Bluetooth headphones, concurrently.
Note:
- Dual-link connections are not 100% reliable and you might experience low audio quality when pairing two receivers concurrently. That depends on the specific transmitter and receivers.
- A dual-link, low-latency connection can be established only if your headphones support low-latency, as does the Vest. The actual latency will always be dictated by the higher latency device.
- An in-voice chat channel cannot be established with this type of connection.
USB headphones
You can connect both USB headphones and a Vest to a PS5 simultaneously only if your USB headphones have an additional output port (e.g.: Astro headphones).
For setup using Astro headsets, please refer to the following article.
