It is past midnight, everyone else is asleep, and the one match you promised yourself is on a phone or a laptop at the kitchen table. Speakers are out of the question. The AULA A600 handles that scenario well because it does not need its USB receiver: a quick switch to Bluetooth and the sound stays in your ears. Here is how to set up an A600 Bluetooth session that keeps the house quiet.

Quick Answer

The AULA A600 powers up on 2.4GHz, and a double-click of its M button moves it to Bluetooth so it can pair with a phone or laptop. Keep the ear-cup volume wheel low, and use the slide switch on the ear cup to mute the detachable mic when someone walks past. You will find it with the new AULA headsets at Evetech, priced at R459.

🌙 Getting onto Bluetooth

The A600 starts on its 2.4GHz receiver every time it switches on, which is ideal for a desk PC but no help for a phone. Double-click the M button and the headset leaves 2.4GHz for Bluetooth. From there, open the Bluetooth menu on your phone or laptop, find the headset and pair it. After that, it behaves like any other wireless headset on that device.

Watch the difference between one press and two. A single press of M changes the sound profile between the FPS-tuned Game Mode and Music Mode. A double-click changes the connection. At midnight, fumbling in the dark, it is easy to do one when you meant the other.

Why Bluetooth rather than the receiver?

Laptops often have only one or two USB ports, and one may already be taken by a mouse. Phones have no USB-A port for the receiver at all. Bluetooth sidesteps the problem entirely. The trade-off is timing: AULA quotes about 13ms for 2.4GHz and gives no figure for Bluetooth, which is generally the slower link. For a casual late match that is a fair exchange. For ranked play at a desk, the receiver is the better choice.

🔉 Keeping the volume down without a menu

Late-night gaming is mostly about sound leaking in the wrong direction. The A600 has a volume scroll wheel on the ear cup, so you can nudge it down by feel without unlocking the phone or opening a sound panel. A closed over-ear design helps too, since the cushions keep most of the sound inside the cups.

Game Mode is worth keeping on for a shooter even at low volume. It is AULA's FPS-tuned profile for picking out footsteps and gunfire, and a clear directional cue at a low level is often easier to follow than a loud, muddy one.

🤫 Mic, calls and the person walking past

Two controls matter when the house is not quite as asleep as you thought.

  • The mute switch: a slide on the ear cup silences the detachable omnidirectional mic, and AULA states it works in Bluetooth mode as well as the others. It is quicker than any on-screen mute.
  • The power button: it also handles play, pause and calls. If your phone rings mid-match, you can answer from the ear cup.

Because the mic is omnidirectional, it will hear a kettle or a door, so a quick slide to mute is the polite move when someone comes through the room.

🔋 Will the battery last the night?

Easily. AULA rates the A600's 2000mAh battery at up to 110 hours, so an evening on Bluetooth barely dents it. The headset has a low-battery warning to flag it before it runs out, and charging goes through the USB-C port, with a red light that stays on until the battery is full.

The A600 is listed with the gaming headsets at Evetech, and the wireless headset page is the place to compare it with other Bluetooth-capable models. It comes with a 1 Year Local Warranty.
