For the Tech Guys?

Wondering if anyone is aware of anything that can be hooked up to optical audio output to stream to blue tooth enabled headphones? Seems like everything I am finding is a blue tooth or speaker only option.

Thanks

Check out amazon. The thing about tech is; if you need it, amazon will have it. I don’t know anything about these two models other than they came up when I googled it.

Thanks from what I am seeing it has to have an optical output . Not sure why they would call something that outputs audio optical ????

Thanks, My wife enjoys watching movies , so I would like to watch with her. Audio from a television is more complicated than it would seem. My brainchild idea was to try find a streamer aka Bluetooth transmitter and pair it with wireless over the ear headphones .

Figured it might be worth experimenting with?

The box above looks like it will do it for a reasonable cost.

But is optical the only output from the TV? That seems unlikely as most at least have an RCA or phono jack out and there's plenty of bluetooth x-mitters out there that do that.

No it has RCA output jacks. The hitch comes in when you want the TV to utilize dual output. we can set our tv to both Speaker and optical audio and it will not turn off the speaker output.

It uses a fiber optic cable.

You must have an older tv. Most tv's have built-in bluetooth. At least ours does.

Ours does as well, issue is when it’s set to Bluetooth it Does not not transmit audio through the speakers.

I have an IPad which has Bluetooth it pairs automatically with implants, but it does not use the external speaker.
