I think I'm interested in the first example. I have a new BT capable TV which I'd like to use as a source to remotely located speakers -- using a device to insert signal directly into JBL speakers out on the porch. There is a power source on the porch for the BT module. Is there any reason why it will not work this way?
You would just need to confirm that your TV is capable of casting TO another audio device over BT. If it can what you are proposing should work. Thanks for watching 👍
@@AxiomHomeTheaters Ahhhhh.... I can connect and control my new TV with BT. But you ask if it can CAST to another device -- I'll have to research/test this !!! Thanks. Do you have a rcvr/transmiiter with integrated AMP?
@@VARocketry we have a streaming player called the AxiomAir Transformer, which can accept a Bluetooth signal, but you need an external amplifier. Have fun with your research/testing!
Ok … so I want to simply add a pair of rear surrounds to my existing 5.1 av amp which is old and has no wireless or Bluetooth capability… so can you explain in a few east steps what I need to do ?
I need a modified configuration of this project. I want a stereo signal over bluetooth, which this unit provides. At the same time, I need individual bluetooth receivers at the speakers, because the whole point is to avoid wires. With individual receivers, I can place the speakers anywhere without any wires, except for the ones between the speakers and their respective receivers. The issue, of course, is how to get the left speaker's receiver to see the left signal from the transmitter, and the right speaker's receiver to see the right signal from the same transmitter. It would require both receivers to be paired with a single transmitter. With all of the updates to bluetooth, I suspect that this is possible. The question is how to do it.
As far as I know, this is not currently possible. BT only allows a single pairing between a transmitter and receiver. However, is there a reason that you need to do this over BT? There are many digital wireless audio transmitter/receiver systems that will do what you want…Axiom makes this type of system too.
So I have an old Sony Vierra TV with HDMI ports and an older Yamaha receiver..Im using a firestick for my spotify and send the audio to the receiver which plays on my wired speakers downstairs through an digital optic cable. How can I connect a wireless Bluetooth speaker I have upstairs to play the same music?
You would need to check your AVR manual to see if you can output the same audio signal on optical and an analog output (to a bluetooth transmitter) at the same time.
Well I can hook my surround sound system up to Bluetooth I've got that figured out. For me it's all about the old 70s deep tones High's mid ranges that the old speakers carry. I love the sound of the old systems. I have just never found a Bluetooth system that compares
i don't understand the concept of purchasing a new speakers with built-in wireless amplifiers when i am trying to make my wired speakers wireless with an adapter. do i have to purchase new speakers?
No, there are many companies, Axiom included, that make a basic wirelesss, line-level, transmitter and receiver. You still will need an amplifier and speaker wires, but sometimes that can be beneficial depending on where you're planning to locate the speakers. Otherwise, if you want a truly wireless solution you need to go with a speaker system with integrated wireless receivers and amplifiers.
I have a pre-wired ceiling and looking to put up 5 speakers to play music off my phone, and for movies/TV. I am starting from scratch (have no amp, speakers, etc.). Do you recommend getting wired speakers and a bluetooth amp? Or would I need wired speakers, a regular amp, and the Axiom Transformer? Lastly, would you recommend just getting a bluetooth/wifi speaker (with built in amp), and forgoing the reciever, pre-wires, Axiom? Thanks!
If you’d like to have multichannel surround for movies/TV, your best bet is to purchase an AVR (audio/video receiver) and use the existing run wires. Many receivers have stream or BT capability built-in, but if not you could always add a Transformer to the system.
I was looking at these 2 in 1 bluetooth stereo transmitter & receiver devices, there's a ton on ebay for cheap, and wondering if it possible to use one transmitter for just the rear speakers, and connect to another in receiver mode to drive and send the audio to just the rear speakers? I see you have some in your video, do they allow this?
If you have a transmitter with stereo RCA inputs and your receiver has RCA pre-outs for the rear channels you can do this. You would need a matching stereo receiver box at the back of your room, along with powered rear speakers or an amplifier to drive them. Thanks for watching.
@@AxiomHomeTheaters Verry i formative already ! But could you maybe show me some examples of RX-TX bluetooth reciever kits ? Cause i find RX-TX bluetooth RCA recievers but it's never specified if you buy two of these that it will work to be setup to communicate with each other .... Thanks in advance ! :)
@@rudyr.6210 I don’t have any specific examples, but Bluetooth is normally a single pairing of one transmitter to one receiver, so it’s unlikely you’d be able to use multiple receivers at the same time. Hope that helps you and thank you for watching.
Hi there. Great video, especially the two-take approach. I have an Usher CP6311 - a yacin MC10T EL34, an Audio Technica LP5X a Project Debut and a Numark NDX-500. The system is on the upper level of a loft configuration. That means there is an open air and line-of sight communication between my Samsung QLED Q6F situated in the ground floor and the audio system on the upper level. The TV is connected with an ASUS micro PC, so I basically stream RU-vid, Spotify and all music files from the PC through TV Speakers. Is there a way of streaming this music through my Yacin amp and Usher speakers or am I in 'take one' of the above case you described? Thank you!
Thanks! If you have your PC connected to your TV via HDMI and the PC also has a line-level or headphone audio output, you should be able to purchase a wireless audio transmitter and receiver, or a Bluetooth transmitter and receiver to get the signal wirelessly to your Yacin amp.
@@AxiomHomeTheaters Thank you for your prompt response. Actually, the PC side should be OK. The problem is on the amp side, which has four RCA aux inputs. I am not sure they are approproate in my case.
@@MrCellophan If you purchase a wireless adaptor with a receiver that has line-level RCA outputs, you will be able to use any of the available AUX inputs on your amp.
It’s very difficult, unless you purchase new speakers with built-in wireless amplifiers. Otherwise you would need to find a system that can handle multiple wireless low level channels and put amplifiers close to every speaker.
I would not really recommend what you’re suggesting, but I guess you could look into an optical to 5.1 converter box. You’d likely need to find adapters to go from 3.5mm to the RCA jacks that are typically found on this type of converter box.
@@AxiomHomeTheaters Thank you for your reply! What's the idea behind that? Force us to buy new speakers? I had trouble finding new speakers that come close to quality of the ones I have. Granted, I didn't spend any considerable amount of money trying to. New speakers don't instill me with confidence with their look/desing, nor am I willing to pay a lot to get same quality I have now. I have two PCs connected to the same TV. I wanted to get both PCs to be able to use same speakers, depending on if they're currently connected to the TV. I thought that would be the simplest way for me to share the speakers with both computers.
@@PetarStamenkovic I don’t think it’s any sort of conspiracy. You purchased a set of speakers dedicated for computer use with multi-channel 3.5mm connectors. Outside of computers we tend to use RCA connections most commonly for audio signals. TVs these days are a special case as HDMI has become standard for the video AND audio signal. If you’re happy with the speakers you have now, go ahead and find a converter box. It should work fine.
@@AxiomHomeTheaters I feel old :) It seems needless and complicated, but maybe I just don't know enough to understand the problem fully. Thank you for your time! You have been very helpful :)
@@PetarStamenkovic technology makes everyone feel old! It's just a matter of computers started out with speaker connection that worked well at the time. Times they changed, and it makes your situation tough. Glad I was of some help, don't hesitate to ask questions.
Need your help. I have a small device that has a speaker I can barely hear. I was hoping to cut the speaker off and connect the red and black wire to a 3.5m jack and plug that into a Bluetooth transmitter and then connect to a better Bluetooth speaker. I tried it and it worked but I’m getting lots of distortion noise in the Bluetooth speaker. Is there a better way?
The problem you're having is due to the fact that you are connecting a "high-level" amplified speaker output to a line-level input on the BT transmitter. To prevent the distortion you will need to reduce the signal level from the speaker output. Search for "speaker to line level converter circuit" to get some ideas. Thanks for watching.
yo, how do you convert the wired speaker to a wireless speaker. We have wired speakers into our ceiling in the living room, how do I convert those into wireless speakers? Do I have to actually replace them???
I have a Bose system with a 4-channel preamp, two stereo amps and four Bose 901 direct-reflective speakers and two 4-channel tape decks.. I like the sound I get from all of that. Is there a way that I can convert any of that to digital and be able to play through the 901 speakers? I've seen analog-to-digital devices for sale. . . .
