How far away from the sound bar can you be via bluetooth?

Had it about everywhere in my house and it still plays. Starts to cut out when I go more than 50-60 ft outside since I have brick and concrete walls

My home is 1100 Sq feet and single story and I can take my phone everywhere in it and it's still connected.

I would say about 30 feet. It really depends though on walls, open space, etc. I saw the other comment to this question about it being uncomfortable - I purchased 4 different Bluetooth (and returned them) before finding this one comfortable.

10-20 feet. The range is pretty good on this device. Just don't have a wall in between your phone/device and these speakers because the frequency may cut here and there. Besides that, it has great sound quality and it can get pretty loud.

I am not sure. I use a ipod loaded with music and it sits about 25 ft away in the living room from the speakers hanging on the back deck. If you have a direct line of sight to the speakers it should be fine.

Hi Jeniansmom, your source device can work up to 10 m (about 30 ft) (line of sight) of the Bluetooth Speakers. -Vincent

best bet is to connect the sound bar to a cable box or Blue ray..you don't want the source/feed from the TV anyway (The TV audio circuitry is usually terrible anyway) Sound bar gives you the option of playing music without having the TV on.

Any hardwood surface works. Not sure on Bluetooth range I've never been more then 15ft away from it while its playing

Maybe you're asking the wrong question. Bluetooth is intended to be used at close range - 10 to 15 feet or less. Since the PhoneLynx is to convert calls coming in on your cell phone to a jack where you can plug in your house phone, there's no need to separate your cellphone from the PhoneLynx by more than a few feet. If you want to answer your calls from other places around your house, plug the base unit of any cordless phone into PhoneLynx and use the cordless handset (or handsets) to answer the phone from where you are.

If the Bluetooth device is within 2 feet. I had horrible Bluetooth performance with the one I had and returned it.

I've only used the Bluetooth with my phone which works fine. I don't know if it would work with the sound bar. Try contacting the company.

I found the practical limit is about 10 feet. This means that you must place my iPhone or iPad near the stereo and not walk around the room with it. It's the major drawback but works great otherwise. I'll again recommend the Toslink digital audio connection versus the headphone jack/RCA connection for any decent stereo.

I guess that depends on how far away the satellite speaker is.....the cable I got is 15 feet long so it would allow you to place the speaker about 15 feet from the sound bar. You decide.

I don't know what the distance limitation is, but I have always had it less than 15' from the source. In fact, since I wrote the review, I have used it rarely, because it will not make a bluetooth connection with my sources. Not happy with the product or the support.

I sit about 7 feet away. I have to turn volume up to around 70. I am definitely going to upgrade to a external speaker set up. Still doing research. I think it will be the Vizio s5451 soundbar system that is suppose to give you full surround because of the rear speakers, or just get one of the Sharps soundbars. What I hear if you want the best in surround than a receiver with a wired option is the way to go, more so if you are in a big room. For now with the volume up high it is adequate but can be better.

You may have a defective unit.. Mine works at 12 feet away just fine and also I programmed the soundbar to my directv remote.. I don't even use the soundbar remote anymore. Hope that helps

I bought one seven months ago...bluetooth range is about 12 feet line of sight... very good sound for such a small speaker.

Have the speakers at least 2 to 3 feet away from the wall if possible...from a def tech rep
