About this item

  • [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.

Product Description

Woman watching TV with wireless headphones connected to Avantree Orbit Bluetooth Transmitter

BTHT-41866-BLK

BTHT-41866-BLK

No Lip-Sync Delay

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. Note: aptX Low Latency provides <40 ms audio latency – virtually unnoticeable and significantly lower & better than the 200+ ms of typical Bluetooth solutions on the market.

Auto Converts 5.1CH to 2.0CH

Unlike most Bluetooth TV transmitters on the market, you won’t have to adjust your TV audio settings, because the Orbit will do it for you. The Orbit transmitter can automatically convert your TV’s 5.1CH audio into 2.0 PCM Stereo, making it transmittable via Bluetooth. All you need to do is simply plug, pair, and play! No hassle!

Features Audio Pass-through

Pass-through lets you hear your TV audio through a soundbar or external speakers and from your connected headphones at the same time. Perfect when gathering with family or friends where individuals with hearing issues normally could not enjoy what is on the TV. Using pass-through, anyone needing headphones could connect and experience the audio the same way anyone listening through the soundbar or external speakers would.

Before You Buy, Please Note That...

  • If you're not satisfied with your product for any reason, at any time, please get in touch with us directly and we'll do our best to help!
  • The Orbit is compatible with all Bluetooth headphones, but those that support aptX Low Latency or FastStream will benefit from the lowest possible latency.
  • Most TVs can simultaneously play audio through the speakers and headphones connected via the Orbit, but some older TV models may not support this function. This is TV dependent.

Decided on this unit after our research. It mainly being used for Sony headphones, connected to a Sonos system. The Orbit was a pinch to set up, after I reconfigured the Sonos to work with the system. Bluetooth range is good (Usual as any Bluetooth connection, cuts out when twenty meters away behind walls). Sound quality is very good thru the headphones. Easy to read display. Great to be able to connect two devices. Certainly would recommend.

Easy to set up. No time lag noticed, great audio. Does exactly what it says it will do. Small and compact. Pleased it is usb powered, saves an extra plug. Very pleased I bought this more expensive version with digital display (Very easy to connect and avoid mistakes connecting to wrong devices!) Only downside is that the range is no where near as far as claimed, but this did not cause an issue for me.

Not much to dislike in this device, its small and unobtrusive. It has a screen which gives the information you need for simple operation. Comes with all the connection plugs needed. Set up is simple. The screen although small is very well lit . Buttons could be more tactile for those with poor sight and snse of touch, but they do not need to be continuously used so its not important really.

Packaging is really impressive, top quality, strong, made for the product to fit and be held no matter how it is handled.

I am delighted with the purchase.

The bonus is that the headphones link without disrupting the TV's normal speakers (which works great for me - I'm going "deaf" according to my wife :) ) This allows others to hear the TV at normal volume and I'm happily listening through the headphones.
The bluetooth pairing is a bit of a pain. Removing a paired device is also overly complicated. Thank goodness I don't have to do it often.
Overall I like the look of it and its small enough to sit in front of the TV without disrupting the view. Highly recommend.

Firstly, it is very well made and packaged. Robust. It eventually worked after much trial and errors, and I am an IT professional! The pass-through Optical works well. The biggest problem is volume. The + and - volume control is useless. There is quite a lot of lag bewteen the TV and the Bluetooth. Adjusting the lag control on the TV did not work. Realise this is always a problem with most bluetooth, less so with the TVs in-built Bluetooth. Took a lot of adjustments with the sound source to eventually get the volume sufficiently loud enough. My setup is a quite new Samsung Smart TV, Samsund earbuds and a BOSE soundbar.

Been using this unit for about two weeks. So far so good! Simple setup, tangible quality, good value.
I'd recommend this to anyone who wants to use two pairs of headphones in their home theater system, gaming, movies, etc performance has been great and no noticeable delay issues. You can use your own bt headphones with this unit, I have paired four different headsets and all work great . I am using the supplied optical cable connected to the ARC output on my TV. Instructions could be better for more complex audio systems, but there's videos on you tube that may fill in the blanks for some.

5.0 out of 5 stars This product absolutely works with AirPods Pro 2 and Airpods Pro 1
Reviewed in the United States on 10 November 2023
Verified Purchase
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.
