Bluetooth Receiver Latency

Very good Bluetooth receiver.

I wanted to listen to the sound from a new Sony smart TV through a 1970s stereo receiver/speakers setup in lieu of using either the TVs internal speakers or an old LG soundbar which I have never liked. With the Geffen GTV-DIGAUD-2-AUD converter, I connected an optical cable from the TV to the Geffen converter and then RCA cables from the converter into the AUX port of the receiver. Now the sound is much better PLUS there is no lag (latency) between the voices on the screen and the sound from the speakers. The B&H rep recommended this converter over a less expensive converter in order to avoid a latency issue. I am happy with this purchase, but have not figured out a way to use the TV remote for sound level adjustments and muting.

Great sounding receiver ....AWESOME with my Bluetooth

I bought this receiver for the Bluetooth connectivity. I am now able to play my iTunes songs from the iTunes cloud through my iPhone and the new Receiver to our inside and / or outside speakers - all from my lounge chair. I am handicapped, so this is of great help to me.

There is literally no latency when recording a podcast, especially when recording a phone call via Bluetooth. The sound is crystal clear

I like the zero latency with which I can listen to audio from the movie playing on my big screen TV over Bluetooth, and I certainly appreciate the longevity of the battery. I hang them up on the lamp on my bed stand overnight so they are easy to find in the morning

I received my SRS-NS7 from B&H about a week ago and was totally hooked on it within an hour of starting to use it. However I want to offer some strong advice to those who plan to use one of these while watching TV alongside other viewers. My wife and I normally sit about 12 ft from our TV monitor and typically sit close enough that we rub shoulders. We have a Sonos soundbar under the monitor, with surround sound speakers at each end of our loveseat. I wear hearing aids but Patty does not. The optical output of the TV goes to a splitter with one output going to the soundbar and the other going to the Bluetooth transmitter for the SRS-NS7. With the arrangement described above, we both heard sound from the soundbar and the NS7, and there was enough latency difference to irritate us both. I have a technical background and had anticipated such a latency effect, but had no knowledge of the actual delays with either device. I spoke with an audio expert at B&H, asking for advice about a variable delay device that has optical input(s) and output(s). He could not recommend such a device that is currently available from B&H but did suggest a Felston DD740 that B&H used to carry. I looked up the characteristics of the DD740 and agreed that it seemed to be exactly what I needed. I purchased one from LipFix.com, after talking with their Nick Johnson. It arrived yesterday. After connecting my new DD740 in series with the optical input to the Bluetooth transmitter of the SRS-NS7 and experimenting with the delay, I found that a delay of 55mS yields NO perceptible latency effects that interfere with either what Patty and I hear while watching TV. The bottom line: We both enjoy hearing REALLY EXCELLENT sound, including very clear dialogue, while watching TV together AND I get the benefit of superb sound while editing videos etc. with the SRS-NS7 connected to the Bluetooth of my computer systems. I could not be happier with this purchase! Pete

These are just as great as my ATH-M50's and add an EXTREMELY low latency bluetooth mode. Super comfortable, classy audio quality, and low end that slaps.

Great receiver for garage or man cave Bluetooth setup

One of the best systems out there. It works perfectly and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a great Bluetooth receiver
