About Bluetooth Transmitters, Receivers & Adapters
Bluetooth accessories bridge the gap between wired and wireless audio. A Bluetooth transmitter sends sound from a non-Bluetooth source, such as a TV or mixer, to wireless headphones or speakers, while a Bluetooth receiver adds streaming to an existing amplifier or powered speaker. All-in-one units switch between both modes, so one device covers either job.
The range includes portable, battery-powered aptX low latency transmitter and receiver units that keep audio in sync with video, USB Bluetooth dongles for computers without Bluetooth built in, and compact Bluetooth amplifiers. Pair them with Bluetooth headphones or Bluetooth speakers, browse all Bluetooth audio devices, or hook receivers into your gear with leads from audio cables and audio adapters.
Bluetooth Transmitter & Receiver FAQs
What is the difference between a Bluetooth transmitter and a Bluetooth receiver?
A transmitter sends audio from a device that has no Bluetooth, like a TV, to wireless headphones or speakers. A receiver works the other way, letting your phone stream to a wired amplifier or powered speaker. All-in-one units do both with a mode switch.
Do Bluetooth transmitters cause audio delay?
Standard Bluetooth adds a small delay, which is most noticeable when watching video. aptX Low Latency models cut this delay enough to keep dialogue in sync with the picture, provided both ends support the codec.
Can I add Bluetooth to an old amplifier or stereo?
Yes. Plug a Bluetooth receiver into your amplifier's aux or line input, pair your phone and stream straight away. For a computer without Bluetooth, a USB Bluetooth dongle does the same job.
