I recently purchased Bose QuietComfort earbuds and would like to listen to my tv through them. I have a 5 year old Samsung TV with a Yamaha ATS-1060 sound bar. Also I purchased a near AppleTV. How can I listen to the tv through my Bose earbuds?

Do you have the Apple TV box? If so, which model?


Bluetooth wireless earbuds can be paired to Apple TV (4th generation or later) like any compatible bluetooth device: Set the earbuds to pairing mode, then find them in the Bluetooth menu to pair and connect. Once paired, they would be remembered for a next time, and can then easily be selected again through the Audio Controls widget in Control Center.


Use Bluetooth accessories with your Apple TV - Apple Support


Older models Apple TV (3rd generation or earlier) are not compatible with bluetooth speakers, headphones, or earbuds.

Using bluetooth speakers, headphones, or earbuds would disable other speakers (TV speakers, soundbar, receiver).
