Dual headphone streaming

The SOOMFON BT17 is a Bluetooth 5.0 transmitter and receiver that sends TV audio to two headphones or speakers at the same time. It accepts optical, 3.5 mm and RCA connections from non-Bluetooth sources such as TVs, PCs or MP3 players. An LCD display shows the current status and built-in volume controls adjust levels for headphones that lack their own.

Range and power in use

The unit maintains a stable link up to 30 metres in open space and around 10 metres with obstacles in the way. It draws power from a standard USB supply so no separate mains adapter is required. Operation stays silent because there are no moving parts or fans inside the enclosure.

Bypass keeps existing speakers active

A bypass mode passes the incoming signal through to a wired soundbar or stereo while Bluetooth headphones listen simultaneously. The package includes the necessary optical, 3.5 mm and RCA cables so every supported input can be used immediately. Automatic reconnection restores the last paired headphones without further setup.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the BT17 to my TV using the optical port and pair two headphones?

Plug the optical cable into the TV output and the BT17 optical input, select optical mode, then hold the pairing button until the LCD shows pairing for the first headset, repeat for the second headset; both will reconnect automatically next time.

What upkeep does the BT17 need and which parts wear out first?

The internal rechargeable battery will lose capacity after many charge cycles; keep the USB charging port clean and update firmware only if the manufacturer releases a fix.

At what distance does the BT17 signal start to drop during a long movie?

Expect a stable link up to 30 m with clear line of sight; walls or furniture can reduce reliable range to about 10 m.
