StreamPort TV Audio Transceiver:
Designed to seamlessly connect with the StreamQ Surround headphones, this compact device lets you wirelessly stream audio from your TV to your headphones. Alternatively, use it to send music from your phone to a linked speaker system or soundbar. While the transmitter might have a budget feel, it’s an unexpectedly valuable piece of tech. Imagine this: you can wirelessly stream audio from your TV to one or two pairs of StreamQ headphones (through a headphone jack or digital audio port) AND simultaneously send that same audio to your home sound system or soundbar. That’s quite a feat in itself, but the features don’t stop there.
Switching to receive mode transforms your home audio system or soundbar into a wireless hub, letting you stream music in high quality from any Bluetooth-enabled device, like your smartphone. This is an excellent way to easily upgrade an older hi-fi system. I actually found myself using this feature the most, and it worked flawlessly.
The key features of the StreamPort TV Audio Transmitter include:
- Transmit Mode (TX): Streams audio wirelessly from a TV to one or two sets of StreamQ Surround headphones while simultaneously passing the audio through to a home sound system or soundbar.
- Receive Mode (RX): Streams music from any Bluetooth-enabled device, such as a smartphone, to a home audio system or soundbar for high-quality wireless playback.
- Low Latency Bluetooth: Minimises lag with a latency of less than 70ms, ensuring synchronised audio without lip-sync issues.
- Multiple Connectivity Options: Features USB-C power input, 3.5mm audio input/output, and optical input/output, providing flexible and reliable audio transmission.
On the front of the Stream Port the main controls for power Bluetooth, mode switching, a large rotating bezel for volume control and a play/pause button housed inside, and a small screen that gives you all the information you need. On the top is a antenna, which boosts the signal to the headphones, on the back is the USB Type C Charging port, 2 3.5mm audio in ports in/out 2 Optical audio ports used for bypass.
In Use :
I connected this StreamPort to my TV’s Optical Audio port (I had to use the bypass function as my current sound bar used the same connection) I then paired the StreamQ, headphones, to the Stream Port. Sat down to watch some Netflix. I was immediately blown away by the audio difference that these headphones provided, they gave a rich deep sound and more importantly a noticeable crystal clear 3D soundscape and experience.
You know when you use some Bluetooth headsets, watching media, sometimes the lip sync is just a little bit out, just enough to be annoying, which if you’re lucky, you will be able to adjust sync through the settings, this, it’s clearly not the case with the StreamQ and Stream Port set up, the sync was perfect straight out of the box. One advantage I did notice was the volume and clarity of The Voice dialogue was increased you know sometimes when you’re watching a movie the sound effects or music drown out the spoken word well this is clearly not the case with the StreamQ TV Bundle as it enhances spoken word measurably.
And what if you don’t want to listen through headphones, well the Stream Port can pair with your Bluetooth speaker of choice and Stream the audio to that, as well as receiving input as well.
Conclusion:-
the Mixx StreamQ TV Bundle stands out as a useful and feature-packed solution. It allows you to indulge in your favorite movies and shows at your preferred volume without disturbing others, all while providing an impressive 3D surround sound experience and crystal-clear dialogue. While the build quality of the headphones might be a minor concern for some, the overall functionality, versatility, and sound quality offered by the StreamQ TV Bundle make it a highly recommended addition to any home entertainment setup.
