I'm sure lots of you have already done this but our BV7-55 is just too far from the headphone jack outlet to our sofa unless you use an extension cable.  I hate cables and don't want them trailing all over the place.

I've just bought and set-up a wireless Bluetooth transmitter and seperate wireless bluetooth receiver system so we have freedom of movement  without trailing cables.

Bought via Amazon, a TaoTronics TT-BA01 transmitter and a matching TaoTronics TT-BR021 receiver.  I wasn't sure they would pair OK as they are meant for phone, tablet use where you can select the bluetooth device.  But, they paired immediately and it works a treat.  Now my step-daughter can watch at night with the mute function on, headphones on and no trailing cables.  Sound quality is really good.

Maybe this is of use to some who have a similar situation to me.  I'm sure there are other solutions but this works for us.

I connected a bluetooth receiver to my H6´s, and thought I was really smart. Until I realised that there was no amplifier in the receiver. I did get it working with a headphone amplifier and the bluetooth module.

No amplifier needed with this.  Just plug and play.  The only disadvantage is you have to pair the two at each use for some reason.  Only a push of 2 buttons and that's it.

Would you mind sharing a picture of yours? And price..

Hi Leo,

I got them via Amazon UK.  The transmitter is here:

And the receiver is here:

The transmitter is quite small but the receiver is bigger.  Just about OK to fit in a big pocket.  I'll post pictures tomorrow of them next to the H6's.

Dave.
