I was looking for a way for my elderly parents to watch tv with the rest of us but not have to jack up the volume.

I purchased this optical to bluetooth transmitter and receiver. I plug it into my TV's optical port and it can connect 2 sets of bluetooth headphones.

So we watch tv a a normal volume and my parents can listen on their Bose headphones. It works really well and at the moment there is a $19 off coupon.

  Can you confirm whether it does AptX-Low Latency when using two headphones (dual-link)?

  It does support AptX-LL and it does support dual-link - but no mention of AptX-LL over dual-link. (One of the reviews confirms AptX-HD doesnt work over dual-link.)

  thats a grea question, I would have to test it and see but I am away from my TV at the moment. The one gotcha is you cannot use Dolby/DTS on your TV with this as well, So on my Sony 9000H I have to set the output to PCM only then is optical output activated.

  So basically I use the TV's audio the headphones. I can technically use my soundbar which connects over eARC but it's rather quiet for some reason.

    If your tv volume is already up look for a night listening mode on your soundbar as an easy fix

      we use night listening mode and voice enhancement for my parents but they still need to turn the tv up quite loud and I have young children sleeping. with the headphones they can have it loud enough for them to enough things like background music as well

  This might be a great fit to upgrade the home audio system which is missing a wireless connection, but I can't find a manual for the product to check:

  Does it support multiple bluetooth devices in reciever mode? I.e. can I pair multiple phones to chop and change who is playing music easily?

    From reading the instructions it came it 'looks like' you can only connect one phone via bluetooth to it in receiver mode. You then use the optical out or 3.5mm jack that plugs into your audio system.

    I'm not sure of what the sound quality would be like.. I've only tested it in TX mode from the TV->optical to my headphones which sounded ok to me

      Thanks for checking that!

      It's a pity as I liked the interface on this, I had a little hunt and found this UGREEN that has dual connection (https://www.amazon.com.au/UGREEN-Bluetooth-Certification-Com…).

      May hunt around more to see if there is a better option again but I think ugreen is a safe bet

  this is what I got for my folks:

  https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0B316KBD9?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_f…

  specially designed, though MUCH more expensive.

  they do go on sale (I got mine for 263), but we're talking chalk and cheese, apples vs oranges.

  they really boost the sound and voice, its pretty good.

  there is a cheaper upgrade?

  That's pretty nice. I tried making pretty much the same thing, but tallying all the bits came to not much less than this. Around $20.

  How is the volume on these? One of the issues I had was that the volume wasn't all that great, so I had to add an ompamp chip to raise the line levels pre-transmitter, but because I was powering it from a plugpack it added an annoying hum

  I had a similar problem but it was me watching telly when everyone else was in bed. I got a Bluetooth headphone adaptor called Tunai Square and it's paired to my chromecast. It's easier juggling between speakers and headphones as the audio output is determined by the Tunai square being powered up (and paired). To run two headphones I use a 3.5mm splitter. You use normal headphones (not Bluetooth) and I use my open back audio technica as they are comfortable.

    The issue I was trying to solve was my parents being able to use bluetooth headphones whilst the rest of the family listens through the TV speakers. I believe some tv's now support this out of the box.
