Quick answer

To pair your Beats Solo 2 Bluetooth adapter, first charge it using the dedicated cable, then activate pairing mode on the adapter and your headphones, and finally select the adapter from your device's Bluetooth menu.

Before you start: Check your adapter and charging cable

The Beats Solo 2 Bluetooth adapter requires a specific charging cable — the authentic cable is 6 inches long and sold separately from the adapter itself. Make sure you have the correct cable, as using a different one may not work or could damage the adapter. The Encased brand offers a verified replacement charging cable for this adapter.

Steps to pair your Beats Solo 2 Bluetooth adapter

  1. Charge the adapter: Plug the charging cable into the adapter and a USB power source. Wait until the LED indicator turns solid blue or green to confirm full charge. A low battery is the most common reason for pairing failure — always charge fully before starting.
  2. Activate pairing mode on the adapter: Press and hold the power button on the adapter for about 5 seconds until the LED flashes red and blue alternately. If the LED does not flash, the adapter may need a reset: hold the button for 10 seconds until the light turns off, then try again.
  3. Put your headphones into pairing mode: Turn off your Beats Solo 2 headphones, then press and hold the power button for 5 seconds until the LED flashes white or blue. Make sure the headphones are close to the adapter — within 3 feet — during this step.
  4. Connect from your device: On your phone, tablet, or computer, open the Bluetooth settings and select 'Beats Solo 2' or 'Bolle & Raven' from the list of available devices. If the device does not appear, turn Bluetooth off and on again, then repeat step 2.
  5. Test the connection: Play audio from your device. If sound comes through the headphones, pairing is successful. If not, repeat steps 2-4. Interference from other Bluetooth devices can cause dropouts — move away from Wi-Fi routers and other wireless gear.
