HiGoing 5.0 Bluetooth Transmitter Sender Receiver 2 in 1 Digital Optical Toslink/RCA and 3.5 mm Audio Adapter/aptX HD 2 Connections for TV, Home Audio Music Streaming Sound System, Mobile etc

The media could not be loaded. I was looking for a solution that I didn't think existed until I stumbled upon this little unit. There a few BT-TC/RX units out there but non that I could find that didn't cost the earth and will last a staggering 24hrs on one charge!!!Specs boast high fidelity audio and low latency which all the others do but the continuous usage time of 24hrs... really? I could binge watch a whole series on AMZ Prime!!Arrived in a brown cardboard box with basic logo printed on the front, I like that as it makes me think that someone is looking out for the environment. The box was very light and the thought of spending what I did made me think of a cheap poorly made Chinese unit. Open it up and and the unit is securely held with cardboard tabs. Lift the unit out and open up the tabs reveals a .... micro usb to USB charging cable, 3.5mm jack to l/r phono cable splitter, 3.5mm to 3.5mm patch cable and a SPDIF/TOSLINK Optical cable. The instructions where printed in the smallest font possible on a piece of paper just as small. As with most Chinese products the instructions although in English, were a little confusing. Any tech savvy person will understand if you read between the lines but if your purchasing this type of unit you'll probably know what your doing anyway.Press and hold the power button till it flashes blue, put your headphones into pairing mode (Senheiser 4.50 BTNC) and it connects quickly. The blue light flashes until an input signal is plugged in. Then it just stays solid blue and eventually turn off to conserve power. Apparently you can connect two sets of headphones simultaneously.Before powering the unit on I switched it to TX mode, I want to transmit a signal from the TV to the headphone. Plug the patch into the TV headphones and sit back... I tested the audio with my fave gun battle scene - Heat (bank robbery scene.) Voila audio playback!!! Clear, crisp and plenty of bass. Plugged the phones directly into the TV without the unit and there was no difference!! Very pleased with the results. To test the range I left the bedroom and still no drop outs and flutter. Downstairs and into the garden and the normal BT dropouts occur but then again I can't watch the TV from here so whats the point. Definitely a winner here.So, the unit also a RX mode which allows you to send a signal say from your phone/tablet/PC to stream (AMZ music, Spotify, iTunes). Use the patch cable or phono splitter in the AUX input on your HIFI and you can play through that and control tracks from the source device. If you want you can also use the SPDIF cable if your equipment will support optical IN or OUT if you want to TX the audio.I can now watch TV while my wife sleeps and crank the volume up too! Awesome. Thank goodness the terrifyingly lightweight box with 'Made in China' on the bottom was not a disappointment and I can safely say that it was a good buy after all.*After using this unit and testing with BT Speakers I did notice that the audio lag was non existent with the transmitter. Using my Mac + BT speakers the delay was absolutely noticeable. Another reason why you should get this (3/6/208 - amendment added after 1 week's use)

I bought this to pair a PS4 to a soundbar. I have the PS4 connected to a projector and wanted the soundbar moved from its position behind where we sit to underneath the screen without an optical cable running across the floor. It paired up no problem. I found it easy to use. Unfortunately the delay between screen dialogue and sound makes it look like we were watching a dubbed movie. I also tried a pairing between the projector and the soundbar it did not improve. It would certainly work well for music. I returned it as the lag was unacceptable to me in fairness this might be down to my soundbar I can't say for certain.

I decided to purchase this Bluetooth Tx/Rx after I upgraded to the iPhone 8 and managed to lose the AUX to lightning cable adapter. My car only has phone Bluetooth so this is a neat solution to being Bluetooth enabled for audio. The tx/rx unit is small and seems to be well made. It fits neatly into my centre console armrest where I have a 12V power supply and AUX socket. Pairing is reasonably straightforward and it seems to cope well with switching between multiple iPhones. Sound quality is perfectly adequate although I did notice some interference when the iPhone handset volume was on low and the car audio volume was turned up loud to compensate. To get round this I keep the volume on the iPhone handset high. One small nag is the user manual which is difficult to read as the typeset is quite small. The only real complaint I have is that the unit has an auto power-off feature when not in use (presumably to save battery power) so I have to open the centre console and turn on the unit each time to reenable after a relatively short period of inactivity.

I'm not an audiophile, but I like my music, a lot. And I can tell when I listen to good audio equipment. To set the scene, I have a Cambridge CXA 60 amplifier and a pair of Dynaudio Audience 60 speakers. I stream my Spotify audio from a Rooted Samsung Galaxy 8 with Viper4Android.I've been looking for a Bluetooth receiver to make my setup Bluetooth compatible, and had a number of requirements: Apt-X, Apt-X HD (not available on my Samsung, but useful in the future) & optical output.As soon as I plugged in my unit I was blown away: great sound quality, much better than anticipated from a device at this price point. Great stage, great amount of detail, the sound has substantial body and presence. Powerful lows, rich mids and detailed highs.Guess what: I wanted this as a secondary unit to support my Chromecast Audio, streaming WiFi signal also using optical output. However, it happens that, to my hears, this Bluetooth transmitter sounds more real, more detailed, and delivers a wider stage than Google's prized audio unit... And I'm only halfway through the potential of this device streaming Apt-X!Now, the caveat is: the analogue output does not deliver, and you will better off with Google's Chromecast.I'm sold, and, if you have a optical-ready setup, encourage you to go for it. At this price, it's a no-brainer. You can thank me later.
