I would like to use my corded headphone (as wireless) to watch TV. I have a Vizio soundbar connected to my TV (soundbar has bluetooth capabilities). Would this be what I need to make my corded headphones wireless? Another question: If I were to have 2 headphones, would I need 2 of these? Thank you.

You should be able to your corded headphones with this receiver. Depending on your headphones, you may need an adapter to go from the male plug end on the receiver to the male plug end on the headphones. Otherwise, the receiver should sync with your sound bar and work just fine.

Technically, this will work for you (and with this, they even include a female to female adapter so you can connect your headphones right out of the box). The soundbar would be the transmitter, and this would be the receiver. Keep in mind that, unless your headphones have an inline volume control, the volume would need to be controlled on your soundbar. I'm not familiar with the soundbar, so that would be left for you to figure out. If you wanted to have 2 pairs of headphones, you should be able to do that with a simple splitter from this receiver.

Reading what's been posted, I can't find if this has AptX capability. Has anyone experienced latency from their bluetooth transmitter using a TV to this device with corded headphones? Thanks...Mike

Yes on the headphones, as long as its the small jack. 8mm I think.No on 2 of these, you can only use one blue tooth item at a time.

Just one device at a time. The cord disables the Bluetooth function. My question to you would be what's the practicality of having headphone connected to more that one device at once?

Regarding Sentry Wireless Headphones, I was never able to operate them successfully. Too much random static and random shifting from TV listening to a local FM station. After several weeks of experimentation and frustration, I gave up on them. I went back to Amazon and purchased a similar product called "myZones". The setup and operation were the same with the exception that these Wireless Headphones functioned properly, without static and without interference from local FM stations. Now for your question. The transmitter connects to my TV set through the RCA Audio Out connectors. In this situation, I am able to control both the TV volume and Headphone volume independently. However, I recently tried to set myZones up on my neighbors TV. Rather than RCA Audio Out connectors, they had a 3.5 jack labeled Head Phone. When I connected the transmitter using the appropriate adaptor, the normal TV sound shut off and I receive only sound transmitted wirelessly to the headphones. . Though I have not taken the time to research the situation, it appears the answer to your question may depend on the nature of the connector on your TV set. The Audio jack on the newer TV sets may anticipating the use of an external sound system to replace the TV's sound system. In this case a splitter may allow both the external sound system and the wireless headphones to be attached to the same jack.

Hi Kristopher, I wanted to follow up with you on this because it seems like there is a company on Amazon that does sell relatively inexpensive Bluetooth transmitter/splitters that will allow you to plug that transmitter into the 3.5mm jack of your device and you can then use TWO headphones at the same time wirelessly. We have had a good experience with them in our house. I hope that helps. Jacquie

You will have to buy a 2nd set, but two of you can use separate headphones to watch and listen to the same TV program in the same room off the same base station. Make sure both headsets are on the same channel. For instance, I have one base station for my living room TV. My wife and I could use the headphones from our living room base and the headphones from our bedroom base to listen to the same program in the living room. The bedroom TV does not have to be turned on. If you plug a headset into the living room base to charge, you will not be able to use that base to listen to the TV until you unhook the other headset from the charger.

You cannot. They need Bluetooth to run wirelessly.There is a speaker that is a bit larger that will do what you wanted to do with minimal effort and hook-up.On Amazon, check out:Acoustic Research Portable Wireless Outdoor Speaker (AWS53S) This is a wireless speaker that you could hook up to the TV. If the TV has a headphone jack, you should be able to plug the transmitter directly in. If not it may have stereo out hook-ups, if so, use the following adaptor and hook the transmitter up to that:C2G / Cables to Go 40424 Stereo F/M RCA YCable (6Inch, Black) I have used a similar speaker in the past and I have seen these in stores (Bed, Bath and Beyond) and they seem to work well.Thanks,Rog You cannot.

The only way to use headphones on this TVs is by buying the Digital Optical Coax to Analog Stereo Audio Converter, USB DAC Headphone Amplifier and a toslink cable with that you can use wired headphones, connect a Bluetooth wireless adapter receiver to the Digital Optical Coax to Analog Stereo Audio Converter, USB DAC Headphone Amplifier and you can use wireless Bluetooth headphones.

Sorry I took so long - I hooked this directly to the TV and then to earphones - I do not unplug it. I would look into wireless connections depending on the set up you are looking for. I have not had good luck with too many wireless items so that is why I used this one. Hope this helps

Can one have sound from the tv and the headphones at the same time. My husband likes more volume than I do and I am hoping this will work. If not can I wear another set of headphones that will pick up the signal?

IF you have a satelite or cable box, you hook up to that. If the sound bar is blue tooth only them you have to have a blue tooth ready TV or some kind of adapter. Of you have any type of wire hookup you can always find an adapter so you can hook up to some other kind of wire.

If you are wanting to use to headphones for your Tv, you can ....just follow directions for installation..OR you can use them with a Sterio that has your Tv running thru it when in the aux mode

It depends on how you want to use it. If you want to connect directly to the TV and it has a headphone jack, the answer is yes. If you want to connect wirelessly the answer is no, since Tvs lack a Bluetooth output.

There are stereo Bluetooth adapters that plug into headphone jacks of TVs see if that is an option. You need something that does not require loading drivers to the TV. Unless the TV will load and maintain the driver.
