Reply to comment by Nr48 in Running a Bluetooth Dac like Qudelix-5K or Fiio BTR5 and Pairing It With Amazon Firestick? Has anyone done it? by BigBrainAlphaMale

It supports AptX LL which is totally acceptable and the range hasn't been a problem for me. As far as I'm aware there isn't another product that competes with it at $130.

Just saying the BTA30 is overkill in this case. Only reason to get it as a transmitter is for music streaming over LDAC or as a receiver with its good DAC. For Just Aptx LL almost every transmitter above $25 works too. Example

Interesting, that Xtral transmitter/receiver says that it has a dac on it. To add to my last response to you. Maybe two of these units acting as a transmitter and receiver would work best? Would that work fine? Using a pair of wired headphones connecting into the Xtral receiver end and using the other at the TV end as a transmitter.

Nah, you can get the Xtral as the transmitter to save a few bucks in comparison with the 1mii transmitter but I would really stick with a proper Bluetooth dac amp for the headphones. Maybe Have a look for a used btr5.

Two Xtral would connect to each other with Aptx HD which gives you a high latency again.
