Setup Guide

Set up in 60 seconds.

Three steps and you’re feeling sound. Here’s everything you need to get your SoundBlanket running.

Setup
1
Plug in.
Connect the cable from the blanket and/or pillow to the locking connector panel. Make sure the connection is fully seated and secure. A loose connection is the most common cause of no sound.
2
Power on.
Plug the supplied power cable into a standard grounded outlet and switch the unit ON. The power switch glows red when the unit is energized.
3
Connect your audio.
Two ways to connect. Pick whichever fits your setup.
Bluetooth
Enable Bluetooth on your device and search for “SoundBlanket” in your list of available devices. Select it to connect. Once paired, your system is ready to use.
3.5mm AUX
Connect a standard 3.5mm audio cable to the amplifier’s “IN” input and attach your preferred audio source. Note: overdriving the input may cause audio distortion and could damage the speakers.
Tip: Start your volume low and raise it slowly until the sensation feels right. The vibration follows the volume, so a little adjustment goes a long way. Bass-heavy and low-frequency audio creates the strongest body-felt sensation.
FAQs
I’m not getting any sound. What should I check?
Run through these in order: the power switch is ON and glowing red, the connector cable is fully seated in the locking panel, your audio source is playing with the volume up, and you’re connected on the right input (Bluetooth or AUX). Nine times out of ten it’s a loose connector or a muted source.
Bluetooth won’t pair. What do I do?
Make sure the unit is powered on, then turn your device’s Bluetooth off and back on and select “SoundBlanket” from the list. Still stuck? Power the unit off and on, move your device closer, and try again. If SoundBlanket shows as already paired but won’t connect, tap “forget device” and pair fresh.
How loud should I play the audio?
Whatever feels comfortable. Start low and raise it slowly until you feel the sound the way you like. Avoid pushing your source to maximum, since overdriving the input can distort the audio and damage the speakers over time.
Can it vibrate without music?
There’s no dedicated vibrate setting, but you can absolutely achieve it. Play a low-frequency tone or use a frequency generator app (plenty of free ones) and you can fine-tune the vibration on its own, from a soft hum to a deeper pulse.
What audio works best?
Anything you want: music, guided meditations, white noise, rain, movies, gaming. There’s no app and no required content. Bass-heavy and low-frequency audio creates the strongest sensation, while softer ambient tracks feel gentler.
Can I connect my TV, computer, or tablet?
Yes. The amplifier has Bluetooth, a 3.5mm audio input, and a 3.5mm audio output. Pair over Bluetooth from any device that supports it, or run a standard 3.5mm cable from your device into the amp’s “IN” input. If it plays audio, it works with SoundBlanket. No subscriptions, no apps required.
Can I use headphones at the same time?
Yes. Connect headphones to the amplifier’s 3.5mm output if you want complete isolation: sound in your ears and through your body, with nothing out loud in the room.
What’s the difference between the Amplifier and the Double Amplifier?
The standard Amplifier powers a single SoundBlanket. The Double Amplifier powers a SoundBlanket and a Pillow at the same time, ideal for the most immersive experience.
How does the grounding work? (Pro)
The ground plug from the provided IEC cable connects to the silver-embedded inner liner and the silver-embedded Pro duvet cover through silver-embedded velcro. That creates continuity to earth the moment you touch the SoundBlanket. Your body completes the circuit through skin contact. No active power is involved in the grounding function.
Is the grounding safe?
Yes. The grounding system uses only the earth ground from your power outlet. No active electrical current passes through the blanket. It’s the same principle as walking barefoot on the ground, delivered through conductive silver fibers. The IEC cable’s ground connection is isolated from the live and neutral lines.
Can I use it all night?
Yes. SoundBlanket is designed for all-day and all-night use with no time limit. Lay under it or on top of it and immerse yourself. The speakers built into the fabric translate audio into a gentle, full-body sensation you feel across the blanket’s entire surface. Non-invasive and non-habit-forming.
How do I wash it?
Only the outer duvet cover is washable. Untie the inner corner ties, remove the cover, and wash the cover only. Full instructions for both models are on the care page.
