Tv Optical Out 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

I bought the Alluratek to connect Bluetooth head phones and an audio amplifier to a TV that has only one optical audio port.  The amplifier connection is through an external Bluetooth receiver.  I havent used the Alluratek for connecting two receivers simultaneously.

I have two pair Philips Bluetooth headphones. I used the optical out on my TV to the Aluratek to transmit sound to headphones. Easy to set up on all ends. TV has a delay that will drive you crazy so its an either or proposition. Headphones or TV sound but never both. But now my wife and I have our own volume settings so its perfect for us. Great stereo sound. I would recommend and buy again.

Out of the box and onto the camera's hotshot: so simple to set up and use unlike other transmitter/receivers used in studio with strobes. Set the mode, set your channel to same channel as the receiver, release the shutter and "Your image" is captured. Use this Air Remote with the Profoto A10s.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love everything about it except the inability to adjust volume when using the Optical Out jack;

Out of all the Bluetooth speakers I've used, this is by far the very best. Sounds good, the battery life is a bonus, and the feel and the weight of the product are very durable. Overall, its quality at its very best...

Love that TV , but I wished it had an Optical connection for my Soundbar.

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!
