The system performs beautifully now, but it was a bit of a challenge to get working properly, perhaps due to a defective optical cable (not the one supplied, but one I had). Now that it is set up, it performs flawlessly. The delay is NOT bad at all, and easily corrected in-set on the television. A few things to note: 1) At first, setting one unit as transmitter on my television, and the other as a receiver (on my stereo receiver), I had some trouble getting them to pair, but I put the units close to each other and this problem was solved. 2) I still had no audio signal at my stereo receiver. To try to trace the problem back, I first plugged the transmitter into the RCA jacks on my TV and plugged headphones into the receiver (this worked). Next, I plugged the receiver into my amplifier using the RCA plugs (this worked), then tried with the transmitter hooked to the tv optical out (this worked), and finally got it working via the optical cable to my receiver. NOTE: During this process, at one point I had the transmitter broadcasting DIRECTLY to my receiver's bluetooth input --- this was HORRIBLE, with a completely unacceptable delay, but this was the fault of the STEREO RECEIVER, NOT the fault of the Avantree adapter. Using an Avantree Adapter, there is virtually no delay, and it works perfectly. Moral to the story - if you experience a delay, it is likely to your bluetooth receiving unit delay, and not due to the Avantree products. You can, if you want, purchase a second Avantree unit as a headphone/stereo bluetooth receiving unit, and this will solve your delay problem. A+ for the product. This is exactly what I was looking for! Review: This has more uses than you realize - What a great little product. Battery powered. Receive and transmit. There's so much you could actually do with this device it is mind-bending. For the small price you cannot go wrong. It comes with all the cables that you could need including The optical cable. There's definitely no regret on this purchase I get that some people may not need the battery powered option but once you have it all it just changes everything that you have in your ability. I could go on about all the options that you could have using this device, I mean geez literally you could take an old boombox hook this up to it and have no power requirements because your boombox would be powered on batteries and this is powered on batteries and you'll be able to Bluetooth to it easily. Sure this may not be exactly what you're trying to do but what I'm saying is it opens the door for a lot of possibilities and it works well. ## Features - STREAM AWAY: Bluetooth-enable your TV, PC / Laptop or other favorite device and wirelessly stream to headphones!

I'd say it is just as good as wired, and works great for watching TV without disturbing others, which is why I bought it. It is important that the headphones also support aptX or you will notice a significant sync delay, and of course the better the headphones the better the audio quality. I'm using this with a fiber "TOS-Link" connection (fiber provided) and it works very well. The only issue I have, which dropped a star, is the adapter shuts off if there is no BT receiver (headphones) connected, so you have to turn it on each time you want to use it. This would probably be a minor annoyance to most, but I found it to be problematic for my installation. It is a great product otherwise! ## Frequently Bought Together - Avantree TC417 Bluetooth Transmitter Receiver for TV, Optical Digital Toslink, Volume Control for 3.5mm AUX, RCA, 20H Playtime, aptX Low Latency Wireless Audio Adapter for Headphones, Home Stereo - Amazon Basics Toslink Digital Optical Audio Cable, Multi-Channel, for Audio System, Sound Bar, Home Theatre, Gold-Plated Connectors, 6 Foot, Black - BlueRigger Digital Optical Audio Splitter 1x2 (1 in 2 Out Unidirectional Toslink Splitter, Support LPCM2.0, Dolby Digital, DTS 5.1)- for Home Theatre, Xbox, DVD, TV, Receiver, Sound Bar --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/94485736-tc417-bluetooth-transmitter-receiver-for-tv-optical-digital-toslink-volume](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/94485736-tc417-bluetooth-transmitter-receiver-for-tv-optical-digital-toslink-volume) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
