Pair your MG20 headphones with any Bluetooth device in minutes. Follow these steps for MG20 Bluetooth pairing, fix common pairing problems, and get back to immersive sound.
Quick Answer
To pair your MG20 headphones, power them on and put them into pairing mode by holding the power button until the LED flashes. Then open Bluetooth settings on your phone or computer, select the MG20 from the list, and confirm the connection. If pairing fails, turn the headphones off and on, clear the old Bluetooth entry, and try again.
The MG20 series is designed to get you into your audio fast, whether you are gaming, taking calls, or listening on the go. Bluetooth pairing is the first step, and it only takes a minute once you know the button sequence. This guide walks you through MG20 Bluetooth pairing on phones, laptops, and tablets, and it covers the fixes that solve most connection hiccups.
We will also look at a few model-specific details, like the detachable boom mic on the MG20 Paris Saint-Germain and MG20 Automobili Lamborghini, and how they affect your setup. By the end, you will know how to pair MG20 headphones, how to reconnect them later, and what to check if they will not show up.

Before You Start: What You Need
Make sure your MG20 headphones are charged. A depleted battery can prevent pairing mode from engaging, and it is the most common reason a headset will not appear in your Bluetooth list. If you have not used the MG20 in a while, plug it in for at least 20 minutes before you begin. Also confirm that your phone, computer, or console has Bluetooth turned on and is within a few feet of the headphones.
You do not need any extra app or dongle for standard Bluetooth pairing. The MG20 Paris Saint-Germain and MG20 Automobili Lamborghini both include a detachable boom mic, but the mic is not required for pairing or for listening. If you plan to use the boom mic for chat, attach it before you start so you can test the microphone right after pairing.
- Charge the headphones first; a low battery is the top cause of failed pairing.
- Keep your device within 3 feet (1 meter) during the initial pairing.
- Attach the boom mic before pairing if you plan to use it for calls or chat.
Step 1: Power On and Enter Pairing Mode
Press and hold the power button on your MG20 until you see the LED indicator flash. On most MG20 models, the LED alternates between colors or blinks rapidly to show it is in pairing mode. If the headphones simply turn on without flashing, release the button, turn them off, and try holding the power button a few seconds longer. The exact timing can vary slightly, but a rapid flash is your cue that the MG20 is discoverable.
A common mistake is holding the button too briefly. If you release as soon as the headphones power on, they may reconnect to a previously paired device instead of entering pairing mode. Watch for the distinct pairing flash, and keep the headphones close to the device you want to pair.
- Checkpoint: the LED should flash rapidly or alternate colors, not stay solid.
- If the LED stays solid, power off and repeat the long-press.
Step 2: Select the MG20 on Your Device
Open the Bluetooth settings on your phone, tablet, or computer. On iOS, go to Settings > Bluetooth. On Android, go to Settings > Connected devices > Bluetooth. On Windows, use Settings > Bluetooth & devices. On macOS, use System Settings > Bluetooth. Make sure Bluetooth is switched on and the device is scanning for new devices.
When the MG20 appears in the list, tap or click it to connect. If your device asks for a PIN, try 0000 or 1234, though most modern devices pair without one. After a moment, the MG20 should show as Connected. If you are pairing with a computer that has multiple Bluetooth profiles, wait for both the headset and headphone entries to finish installing before you test audio.
- If the MG20 does not appear, toggle Bluetooth off and on to refresh the scan.
- On Windows, check that the MG20 is not listed under 'Other devices' with a driver warning.
Step 3: Test Audio and Microphone
Play a song or a test sound to confirm audio routes to the MG20. Then open your communication app and check that the microphone is working. If you attached the detachable boom mic, speak into it directly; if you left it detached, the internal mic array should still pick up your voice. The MG20 Paris Saint-Germain and MG20 Automobili Lamborghini both support on-board microphones for calls even when the boom mic is not connected.
If audio plays through your phone speaker instead of the headphones, go back to Bluetooth settings and confirm the MG20 is selected as the output device. Some computers keep separate profiles for 'Headset' and 'Headphones'; choose the stereo profile for music and the hands-free profile for calls. This is not a fault, just how Bluetooth profiles work.
- Checkpoint: you should hear audio in both ear cups and see the mic level move in your app.
- If the mic is silent, reattach the boom mic firmly or switch to the internal mic in your app settings.
Reconnecting Later and Managing Multiple Devices
After the first successful pairing, your MG20 will usually reconnect automatically when you power it on and the device is in range. If it does not, open your Bluetooth settings and select the MG20 manually. The headphones remember the last paired device, so if you move between a phone and a laptop, you may need to disconnect from one before connecting to the other.
To pair with a second device, put the MG20 back into pairing mode and repeat the steps above. Some MG20 models support multipoint pairing, which lets you stay connected to two devices at once, but behavior can vary by firmware and device. If you are unsure, test by playing audio from each device and see which one takes over.
- If auto-reconnect fails, forget the MG20 on your device and pair again.
- For multipoint, check your model's manual or the Master & Dynamic support page for firmware details.
MG20 Troubleshooting Pairing: Common Fixes
If your MG20 will not enter pairing mode, charge it for 30 minutes and try again. If it still will not flash, perform a reset: turn the headphones off, then hold the power button for about 10 seconds until the LED flashes a different pattern. This clears the paired-device list and returns the MG20 to a fresh state. After a reset, you will need to pair it again from scratch.
If your device cannot find the MG20, make sure the headphones are not already connected to another device nearby. Bluetooth headphones often refuse to enter pairing mode when they are actively connected. Turn off Bluetooth on the other device or move out of range, then retry. Also check that you are not trying to pair through a third-party app before the operating system has recognized the headphones.
- Reset the MG20 if pairing mode never activates after a full charge.
- Disconnect the MG20 from any other device before trying to pair with a new one.
MG20 Bluetooth Pairing Checklist
- Charge and power on: Plug in the MG20 for at least 20 minutes, then press and hold the power button until the LED flashes. Checkpoint: a flashing LED means pairing mode is active.
- Open device Bluetooth settings: Turn on Bluetooth on your phone, computer, or tablet and let it scan for new devices. Checkpoint: keep the MG20 within 3 feet during the scan.
- Select the MG20: Tap or click the MG20 entry in the list and wait for it to show as Connected. Checkpoint: if it does not appear, toggle Bluetooth and scan again.
- Test audio and mic: Play a track and speak into the boom mic or internal mic to confirm both work. Checkpoint: if audio routes to the wrong device, reselect the MG20 as output.
- Reconnect or reset if needed: For future use, the MG20 should auto-reconnect. If it will not pair at all, reset it and start over. Checkpoint: a reset clears old pairings and often solves stubborn connection issues.
MG20 Model Notes That Affect Pairing
- MG20 Paris Saint-Germain: Features immersive 7.1 surround sound, custom 50mm Beryllium coated drivers, and a detachable boom mic for communication. Pairing works the same as any MG20, but the detachable boom mic means you can pair first and attach the mic later without affecting Bluetooth.
- MG20 Automobili Lamborghini: Offers 50mm Beryllium drivers, 7.1 surround sound, and a detachable boom microphone plus internal mic array for talk quality even when the boom mic is detached. If you take calls without the boom mic, the internal mic array still handles voice, so you do not need to re-pair when switching between gaming and calls.
Pairing your MG20 headphones is a quick process once you know the button timing and where to look in your device settings. If something goes wrong, the fix is usually a charge, a reset, or disconnecting from another device. With those steps, you can get back to the immersive sound and clear communication the MG20 series is built for.
