  Poor sound quality in BLUETOOTH mode on your Kenwood Speakers can occur due to several reasons. An object might be interfering with the connection between your playback device and the loudspeaker; try changing the location of either device. The playback device may be too far from the loudspeaker; bring the devices closer. Also, the charge level of the battery might be too low.
