Bluetooth speakers: pairing, stereo and troubleshooting
Here you'll find the guide to sackit Bluetooth speakers in one place: how to pair the speaker with your phone, connect two speakers in stereo, reset the buttons and find the fault when there's no sound. The guide covers the Move, Boom and Go series, including older models such as MOVEit X, BOOMit and WOOFit Go, as well as the radio on Go 300 and WAKEit.
Short answer: Switch on the speaker so it enters pairing mode, and select it under Bluetooth on your phone. You connect two identical speakers in stereo by pressing the Bluetooth or power button 3 times on both (Move and Go) or by holding the Source button (Boom 150 and BOOMit). If there's no sound, check the battery and volume and select the speaker again under Bluetooth.
How do you pair the speaker with your phone?
Most sackit speakers enter pairing mode automatically the first time they're switched on. Turn on Bluetooth on your phone and select the speaker in the list. After that, the speaker remembers the phone and connects by itself the next time it's switched on.
| Model | How to switch on and pair | Sign that it's connected |
|---|---|---|
| Move 150 (MOVEit X) | Hold the power button. Select "MOVEit X" or "SACKit Move 150". | Connected in the list |
| Move 100 | Hold the power button. The Bluetooth button flashes and you hear "waiting for connection". Select SACKit Move 100. | You hear "Connected" |
| Boom 150 | Turn Volume/ON clockwise. The Bluetooth light flashes blue. Select the speaker in the list. | The light stays blue |
| BOOMit | Turn Volume/ON to the right. Select "BOOMit". Enter the code 0000 if your phone asks for it. | Connected in the list |
| Go 100 and Go 150 (WOOFit Go and Go X) | Press the power button. The light flashes white (on Go 150 you also hear a beep). Select the speaker in the list. | The light stays white and you hear "connected" |
| Go 300 | Press the Mode/Menu button until "BT" appears in the display. Select "SACKit Go 300". | Connected in the list |
| WOOFit | Slide the on/off switch to the right. The light flashes blue and red. Select "WOOFit". The code is 0000. | The light flashes slowly blue |
Tip: Keep the speaker and phone close together when pairing. On WOOFit, pairing mode ends after 5 minutes, and you then need to restart the speaker.

How do you connect two speakers in stereo?
Two identical speakers can be connected as a stereo pair, so one plays the left channel and the other the right. First connect one speaker to your phone, then switch on the second.
| Model | How to connect them | When they're connected |
|---|---|---|
| Move 150 and Move 100 | Press the Bluetooth button quickly 3 times on both. The light flashes quickly. | The light stays on on one and flashes on the other |
| Go 100, Go 150 and Go 250 | Press the power button 3 times on both. The light flashes green. | The light stays green and you hear "connected" |
| Boom 150 and BOOMit | Hold the Source button on the speaker connected to the phone until you hear a sound. | The light is blue on both. The first one is the left channel |
| WOOFit | Hold the Mode button (M) on one. Neither may be connected to another Bluetooth device. | The pairing is remembered after switching off |
To disconnect the stereo pairing on Boom 150 or BOOMit, hold the Source button again until you hear a sound. On Go 150 you disconnect with 3 clicks on the power button.
Can you connect speakers with a cable?
Yes, Boom 150 can be connected to a second Boom 150 with an AUX cable, so the second plays the same as the first. That gives double the sound pressure.
- Pair the first Boom 150 with your phone via Bluetooth.
- Plug the AUX cable into the first Boom 150.
- Switch on the second one and press Source several times until the Bluetooth/AUX light is green.
- Plug the cable into the second Boom 150 and turn up the volume on it.
You can connect up to four Boom 150: pair two in stereo via Bluetooth, then connect each of them to another Boom 150 by cable.
How do you switch to a new phone?
First disconnect from the old phone. Otherwise the speaker automatically connects to the last device used, and the new phone can't find it.
- Go 150: Double-click the power button. The light flashes white again.
- Boom 150 and BOOMit: Double-click the Source button. If two BOOMit are connected in stereo, the second must be disconnected first.
- Move 100: Hold the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth button. All Bluetooth connections are reset and the speaker enters pairing mode.
- Go 300: Disconnect the old device under Bluetooth before you pair the new one.
What should you do if there's no sound?
First check the battery and the volume on both the phone and the speaker. If that doesn't help, select the speaker again under Bluetooth.
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| No sound | Charge the speaker if the battery is flat (Go 100 and Go 150: approx. two hours). Turn up the volume on the phone and select the speaker again under Bluetooth. |
| Go 300 shows "Mute" | The power button was pressed in radio mode. Press it again or turn up the volume. |
| The sound crackles | Keep the speaker and phone within 10 metres of each other and remove objects in between. |
| The phone can't find the speaker | Check that the light is flashing as a sign of pairing mode. Switch the speaker off and on again, and try another phone if needed. |
| The buttons don't respond | Reset the speaker (see the next section). |
How do you reset the speaker?
A reset solves most problems with buttons and connection.
- Move 150 (MOVEit X): Press a toothpick or needle into the reset hole on the back.
- Go 150 (WOOFit Go X): Switch on the speaker and press the power button in this order: double-click, single click, double-click, single click.
- Move 100: Hold the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth button to reset all Bluetooth connections.
Tip: The front of MOVEit X can be changed. Hold the leather label, pull the front off along the edge, and press the new front firmly into place so the pins go into the holes.
How do you charge the speaker?
Charge the speaker fully before first use, and use the charger or adapter that belongs to the model.
| Model | Charging | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Move 150 (MOVEit X) | Supplied adapter in DC IN. Approx. 4 hours. 2200 mAh | Says "Low battery" at 10%. Switches off after 15 min. without use |
| BOOMit | Only the supplied adapter (15V/2A). At least 6 hours the first time, otherwise 3 hours from empty | The power light goes out when fully charged |
| Boom 150 | Always use the supplied charger | Glows dim red when the battery is low. Can charge your phone via USB |
| Go 100 | USB cable. Flashes red while charging | Must not be charged while playing |
| Go 250 (WOOFit Go XQ) | Wireless charger or USB cable | Stays red when fully charged |
How do you use DAB+ radio and the alarm?
Go 300 and WAKEit have a built-in radio. Extend the aerial before using DAB+.
Go 300
- Press Mode/Menu until "DAB" appears. The speaker finds the strongest station by itself. Change station with the arrows.
- Hold Mode/Menu to open the menu with Full scan, Manual tune, Prune and System. Prune deletes stations that no longer work.
WAKEit
- Choose DAB+, FM or Bluetooth with the MODE button.
- Setting an alarm: Press ALARM, choose one of the two alarms, set it to "On", choose time and sound and confirm with ENTER. Radio stations must be saved as presets to be used as an alarm sound.
- When the alarm rings, switch it off with ALARM. All other buttons give 5 minutes' snooze.
Important: WAKEit has no battery. In a power cut all saved alarms are deleted, so check them again afterwards.
