Sync Audible Audiobooks to SoundTouch from Computer

Playing Audible audiobooks on SoundTouch through Bluetooth is simple, but not all of your devices support Bluetooth. For instance, the previous SoundTouch series 1 and series 2 and some computers or NAS drive don't support Bluetooth. Except for the Bluetooth streaming, you can also convert the AA/AAX files to a well-recognized format of music files for your SoundTouch system by a third-party Audible converting tool.

TunesKit Audible AA/AAX Converter/Mac is an exquisite software to do this job. Unlike other tools in the market which require you to authorize Audible files to play on iTunes before you can start to convert them, TunesKit Audible Audiobook Converter does not have this hassle. Normally you just need to drag and drop to import all your Audible AA/AAX files and click the "Convert' button to convert your Audible files.



Following is the 3-step guide on how to convert Audible audiobooks:

1. Import Audible audiobooks

In order to convert the Audible files, you must download them to your computer through the Audible Download Manager on Windows or iTunes on Mac first. After that, you can drag them to the main screen of the software.

2. Customize output settings

SoundTouch supports playing unprotected music files such as MP3, AAC, M4A, WMA, OGG, etc., so you just need to pick up one of the output formats you want. The default output format of the TunesKit Audible AAX Converter is set to MP3. You may keep the default MP3 or choose one format you want. In addition, TunesKit software has abundant options for you to customize your Audible audiobooks such as editing the Tab information, splitting audiobooks, and adjusting the playback parameters.
