Optical Output To Bluetooth Transmitter

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

connects my senheiser transmitter to the output of my sound devices quite nicely.

This adapter worked perfectly to connect my tv, which only had an optical output, to the soundbar.

I bought the Godox X1T-N transmitter with a set of 3 Godox QS800II monolights. Tad confusing at first but once you figure it out, it is really amazing. From the transmitter, you can change the output for each light independently, though when changing output from the transmitter it changes in 1/3 stop increments (1/10 stop variation on the lights). After shooting a couple jobs with these I’m pleased with the purchase. If you shoot with their portable strobes it will control those too. I suggest you download the PDF manual and read all this little thing will do. Great value, happy with the purchase.

Worked really well to run hdmi to front of church through the attic. HDMI output on transmitter also let us split to a second monitor in back of church. Didn't use the infrared passthrough so can't comment on that. Very happy with it.

I needed a quality audio switch to switch between the audio output of a CD player and the audio output of my TV into a transmitter for my headphones. Being small and lightweight, I just used some velcroe to attach the switch to the topside panel of my entertainment cabinet where its convenient and hardly noticeable. Keeps all those audio cables out of the way too.

I love this bluetooth transmitter! I lets me use ANY device with an earphone jack to play good music through my good sounding bluetooth speaker. It reconnects automatically too, so all I have to do is turn the devices on and listen. Kudos!

I'm using this to connect my rear projector and sound system wirelessly. I was using so far bluetooth based transmitter receiver which was providing low sound quality lagging and breaking. This one works simply out of the box, no setup needed, and quality is high. The only down side is that some simple audio connectors are missing, but I used those of my previous set.

Highly versatile and compact Bluetooth Receiver/Transmitter with built-in DAC. It has separate optical input and outputs and a dual-use coax line. The Bluetooth connectivity is solid but it might take a few tries with older Bluetooth equipment. Once you're connected, it stays connected. Highly recommended!

Paired easily to my bluetooth transmitter then paired to my other Philips speaker very easily. Good range and great sound
