Pros
Broadcasting range – this transmitter can broadcast via Bluetooth up to 50 meters away from it, which is the greatest distance I encountered so far in Bluetooth audio transmitters.
Audio quality – Most of the time, the audio quality was flawless, and I managed to enjoy a clear sound.
Minimal latency – The audio/video synchronization was excellent, whether I was playing video games or watching movies.
Easy to operate – this device is very easy to install and use.
Dual streaming – the transmitter allows to use up to 2 devices at the same time (Bluetooth headsets/speakers).
Additional connections & accessories – Unlike previous transmitters I reviewed so far, this one offers a TOSLink/port (aka optical connection) and a cable for it. This is 1 of 3 available connections (in addition to the 3.5mm and coaxial jacks, which you also get cables for them).
Cons
Price – This is relatively an expensive Bluetooth transmitter.
Audio quality – There were some devices that I didn’t manage to enjoy a clean and clear audio sound, and I heard a slight disturbance in the background (this happened to me to the 3.5mm cable). I don’t think this problem stems from this specific transmitter, but this is an obstacle that every Bluetooth transmitter that is unable to connect to those certain devices will encounter.
Dual streaming mode didn’t work 100% of the time – either it didn’t work with a certain combination of devices, or I had to repeat the process several times until I managed to enable it.
Dual streaming mode is limited to 2 devices – I wish this transmitter, which is more expensive compared to other similar transmitters, could offer a connection of more that 2 devices at the same time.

FAQ
I connected the transmitter to my TV/DVR/etc., I’ve set it properly, but there’s still no audio output – What can I do?
The transmitter receives only digital audio input in uncompressed PCM format this is the most common audio output in TV so you’re not supposed to be too bothered about it but if for a certain reason, you encounter problems with the audio output you might need to change (if available) the digital audio output setting in your broadcasting device that is connected to the transmitter (TV, DVR, etc.).
Should I set the TV on “Mute” for the transmitter to broadcast audio to my Bluetooth headset/speaker?
According to the user manual, in some TVs you might need to mute the audio output for the audio signal to go to the transmitter.
Can I use this transmitter with PS3 / PS4?
Yes, you can connect the Bluetooth transmitter directly to the optical audio output of the game console. In the case of the PS3, just make sure to enable the audio multi-output.
