Review: Easy set up and works with digital only outputs! - I bought Bluetooth headphones for my step-dad for Christmas so he could use with their new Visio TV but found out that the TV won't output sound from the TV speakers if connected to Bluetooth headphones. This defeats the purpose of the headphones as mom wants to hear through the TV and he needs the TV so loud everyone else is uncomfortable with the volume (yes, he needs and has hearing aids, just rarely wears them). So I ran to Walmart and picked up a Monster brand BT transmitter to plug into the Optical port on the TV. Got that hooked up only to get an earful of static sound through the headphones. Turns out the Monster brand transmitter could only use PCM output which of course, the TV will only output Dolby Digital. So jumped on desertcart and found this one which claimed to accept Dolby Digital signals. Crossed my fingers and waited for delivery day. It arrived promptly and well packaged with everything needed. Instructions were easy to follow and I had it hooked up in a flash. Had to do a bit of fumbling around to figure out how to get the BT headphones to pair (on the headphone side) but once paired, crystal clear audio streamed right through! I added a second set of headphones and was able to watch as well. I didn't notice much latency either. There were a couple points where I thought the audio was a bit off, but it really was barely noticeable. This little device allows the TV speakers to still output sound at a comfortable level (or can mute it as well if no one else wants to watch) and he can hear beautifully through his headphones. Our living room isn't huge so certainly stays connected whenever in the living room but when I tried it out, I walked into the kitchen (about 30 ft away with a couple of walls in between) and it still held connection so seems to have a really good range! Only suggestion is to have the buttons be backlit. It's really dark where I have this positioned and so when I need to access the buttons, I have to grab a flashlight to see. The display is lit and visible, but not the buttons. So - set it up where there's access to light and you'll be fine. There are a lot of options for using this that I've not tapped into - like using it as a Bluetooth receiver or a bypass - but we really haven't needed those other features. It does everything we need and so very easy for my non-techy parents! Now that everything is connected, he just has to power on his headphones and they connect right away! He's a happy camper and so is my mom!
Review: This product absolutely works with AirPods Pro 2 and Airpods Pro 1 - I've been using this product for a few days and and I can state that it absolutely works well with both versions of Airpods Pro (1 and 2). The sound quality is excellent and if the Orbit B was the last device the Airpods connected to, then they automatically connect whenever I take the airpods out of the case. If the Orbit wasn't the last device connected to the airPods, then I need to press the Orbit's select button to connect (note that to achieve this behavior, I have my mac, iphone, and iPad configured to automatically connect to the airPods using the " if last connected to this device" setting) For those having problems pairing with airpods: - open the airpods case, and keep it open - press the search button on the Orbit, - press and HOLD the white, barely visible button on the back of airpods case - the airpods should appear in the orbit device list - on the orbit, using the up and down buttons, highlight the airPods, - press the orbit select button and you should be good - airPods Pro version 2 has volume control via swiping up and down repeatedly and quickly on the flat portion of the airpods stem. This works well with the orbit. Latency: The latency is low enough so that I rarely notice any lip sync problems relative to the TV screen. You can notice a slight audio delay when you see people clap their hands on TV, but it doesn't bother me. I bought the orbit so that I could use bluetooth earbuds simultaneously with my wired Sonos soundbar, giving me all the extra volume I need on my airpods and simultaneously keeping my family happy with their desired lower volume on the soundBar. It really accomplishes that goal. I can occasionally notice a little bit of speaker "echo", but when my airpod volume is high (which is the goal after all), the wired speakers are normal, and the airpods have noise cancellation on, it does not, in any way, limit my ability to fully understand speech. And speech btw is much clearer on the airpods for me than it ever was with the speaker system. The bit of echo is due to the fact that airpods don't support aptX, but its really not an issue for me. The airpods excellent noise cancelation helps to minimize the sound coming through from the wired speakers. You can turn that on by pressing and holding the stem control, until you here the doink sound. When I want to use the airpods with the TV when people are sleeping I can simply put the sonos on mute with the Sonos remote and the airpods continue loud and clear. The Orbit B is an excellent product.

## Features

- [See Your Connections] The Avantree Orbit Bluetooth transmitter is the only transmitter on the market that comes with an LCD screen display. No more “blind pairing”; you’ll be able to identify & select which Bluetooth device you are pairing with, the CODEC used, and control the volume on your connected devices.
- [Wide Compatibility] Thanks to Orbit’s Digital OPT, 3.5mm and RCA input cables, it's compatible with every TV on the market. What really sets it apart is the automatic 5.1CH audio conversion; upon receiving 5.1CH audio, the Orbit automatically converts it to 2.0, instantly making it transmittable via Bluetooth, no need to make changes on TV.
- [aptX Low Latency Compatible] The Avantree Orbit is aptX Low Latency certified. When (and ONLY WHEN) used with a Bluetooth headphone / speaker that also supports aptX Low Latency or FastStream, it will deliver the ultimate “no lip sync delay” experience, ensuring perfectly synced visual and audio no matter what you watch.
- [Works with Soundbar/AVR] The “Pass-Through” feature of Orbit transmitter guarantees simultaneous audio output through the headphones (that are connected to Orbit) AND your external TV speaker such as Sound Bar or Stereo AVR, so that other household members can still hear the TV while you’re using the headphones.
- [Two Headphones, Together] The Orbit features a “dual-link” function that allows two Bluetooth headphones / speakers to be connected at the same time; audio will play through both devices simultaneously. Enjoy a late-night movie session with a partner, at your own volumes, without awaking others in your household.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: My tv is connecting to a soundbar via hdmi arc. can i still use the headphone?**
A: If your TV HDMI ARC port is occupied, most likely your optical audio out will not work. In this case, you cannot use the optical port. You will need to use our HAX05 - the HDMI ARC audio extractor so it can get the audio signal from the HDMI ARC port. In the mean time, your soundbar will also work at the same time. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09N8YLY2W
Hope this helps.

**Q: My samsung tv has fixed optical audio output so the tv volume control does not work for bt headphones via this port, does this device solve that?**
A: I have connected the unit to my TV via optical output and the volume buttons in the unit don't work to control the volume on the connected bluetooth device

**Q: Can i use this by adding bluetooth audio output to blue yeti microphone? i just hate wires and i need to use a single device for both audio i/o.**
A: Orbit doesn't support talk mode:(

**Q: Will this also support the mic on my headset when plugging this device into a laptop aux w/ mic support?**
A: The Orbit is single direction - it take the TV out via optical and puts out the audio via Bluetooth headsets and concurrently to a soundbar via optical or audio aux input(s). So I'm not sure what your connection will look like since it is not likely that you'll be able to output your laptop to the Orbit unless it has an optical out.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mostly served our needs - Slight compatibility issue
*by W***R on December 24, 2020*

For transmitting sound simultaneously to both the Polk Signa 2 sound bar and bluetooth headphones it works great!! No lip syncing issues on streaming devices or channels. Good sound so we are both satisfied. The downside is having lost the HDMI ARC feature available on both the TV and soundbar due to this device only supporting optical instead of HDMI ARC. Prior to adding this device, we could use our Roku remote to display and control the volume for Polk S2 soundbar utilizing the ARC feature. Now, we have to use the poor Polk Signa 2 remote and we still miss the volume display. If the manufacturer were to include HDMI ARC feature in this device it would be perfect but for now, it still solves the greater issue and reason for purchase... the enjoyment of the person with hearing issues being able to use headphones to hear clearly and sound being outputted through the soundbar for everyone else and for that very reason, we would buy it again. However, we do hope that the next version will support HDMI ARC.
